I've posted it in a couple other threads, but I love sharing the story with everyone so here you go:
So I went to Bonnaroo this year. It was the best weekend of my life...if there were a heaven, for me it would be almost identical to this place. I went into this weekend with two goals: to try acid and to try molly. I completed one of them.
Thursday (the first night) I decided to go shrooming. After sitting in a field in front of the trippy, lit-up ferris wheel with fireworks glasses (google is your friend) for two hours and talking with random people, I decided to head back to the RV. On the way back, I started talking to two random girls and after a while got their numbers and headed back. I didn't think much of it...one of the girls was really cute but I didn't really feel like pursuing it.
So fast forward to Saturday morning. I wake up to my friends showing me that they got a bunch of hits of X. I decide to buy two of them just in case one wasn't enough. I had decided that I wanted to take them for the Jay-Z concert.
Fast forward to that night. Stevie Wonder plays a set and there's an hour between him and Jay-Z. I leave my friends during Stevie Wonder because they want to stay in the back and I want to move to the front. I start moving my way to the front, and out of the 100,000 people in this field, I run into the two girls from Thursday night. I ask if I can chill with them and they're cool with it. Everyone at Bonnaroo is extremely non-judgmental and open-minded (and usually doing drugs themselves) so I told them that I was about to partake in my first ecstasy experience. They are cool with it and they say they want to help make it a great experience.
I take the first pill right before Stevie Wonder wraps up. After he exits the stage, the screens display a countdown timer for when Jay-Z is to come out. No joke, once the timer hits 2 minutes I start feeling something subtle hitting me. I look at the girls, they look at me, and they say "You're feeling it aren't you?" I reply "I think so..." and suddenly one starts running her fingertips up my right arm. I'm like "Holy s*** do that again!" and both her and her friend start rubbing all over me and scratching the back of my head.
Now I know what a puppy dog feels like when he's getting scratched behind the ears.
Lights go up, Jay-Z hits the stage. Dude f***ing KILLS it. Hands down the most mind-blowing show I have ever witnessed, and that's saying a lot. Suddenly all I could feel was that I wanted to be intimate with the girl next to me. I want to kiss her, but I don't want to get rejected and have it be awkward so I debate it for a while. After much debate, I lean over and i'm super blunt:
"Can I ask you a favor?"
"Sure, what's up?"
"I really want to kiss you right now."
(smiling) "How did I know you were going to ask that?"
My lips touch hers and a warm spark runs throughout my whole body. Throughout the next few songs we are just holding each other, watching the show and just soaking it all in. After realizing that this is the best i've ever felt in my life, I decided to down the other pill.
This is the most perfect night I have ever witnessed. It's 75 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. Suddenly, keeping in mind I am on ecstasy, Jay-Z starts busting out Forever Young, and the song hits me like a ton of bricks. There could not have been a more perfect song for this moment. I look at the girl, lean in to kiss her, and at that very moment the lights amp up and fireworks explode magnificently all around me, all while Jay-Z is busting out the chorus. I wanted to be forever young. I knew I had to appreciate this moment while i'm young, because these times will soon fade. This moment was and is the moment to last me a lifetime. Call me a pussy if you want, but after the show ended I wanted to cry because I knew for a fact that there will never be anything in my life that tops that moment. After the show, I told the girls I would meet up with them later at Deadmau5, and parted ways. I just walked back to the RV and let it all soak in...all the while the ecstacy keeps building and building. I told myself that I don't care if this rots a hole in my brain...I was living life (I later changed my opinion on this once sober lol). This is what life was meant to be. I was overflowing with love for everyone and I felt like everyone understood me and I understood them.
The night doesn't end here, but I've made this long enough and while the rest is good, it would be sort of anti-climactic. All I want to say is while ecstasy is not a drug to mess with, I think everyone should experience it once in their lives. It is seriously indescribable. Saturday night will forever be the best night of my life.
Read these lyrics and try to put yourself in the moment:
So we livin life like a video
Where the sun is always out and you never get old
and the champaign is always cold
and the music is always good
and the pretty girls just happen to stop by in the hood
and they hop they pretty ass up on the hood of that pretty ass car
without a wrinkle in today
cuz there's no tomorrow
just a picture perfect day
that last a whole lifetime
and it never ends
cause all we have to do is hit rewind
So let's just stay in the moment smoke some weed drink some wine
Reminisce talk some shit forever young is in your mind
Leave a mark they can't erase, Neither space nor time
So when the director yells cut, I'll be fine
I'm forever young
