this trip took place Augest 14/15/16 2001
this is their official website where set and setting took place.
I met up with a new sorce in the area who was known for having a good time.. He sold me 2 tabs which he said were 'very clean' pills of mdma. He sold them to me the same night as the Rosswood Jamberie. I had attended the jam the previous year and it was one of my first times doing E, and the experience was so unreal I just had to reliveit one more time. The previous year a guy named DJ Sorren spun.
Before I get into the music I want to tell you about the set and setting, since the website doesnt have any pictures.
This is a sponcered event. The local music store sets up a huge circus like tent for the bands and djs to play in. They also get all of their lighting and lazers and fog machines and such and set them up out there. There is one general store close by, and a few residential houses.. the only catch is that Terrace (the city where I live) is a 3 hour drive away.. so if you injest pma.. there is not much hope for ya..
Rosswood is in the mountians and is pritty high in altitude.. there are trees everywhere, mosly pine. The tent is set up in the middle of a feild totaly cleared from trees. At the tree line is where most people tent, however, some people choose to bring their rv's into the feild and park there to camp. Fires are lit at night and people play the drums around the fire. The music played is mostly hard rock, with the exception of the turntables which get turned on when it gets dark and they play right up untill 3 or four in the morning.. it is quite exciting.
The field is very large..VERY. about the size of 10 soccer fields.. surrounded by trees, and instead of a change room they have a hall.. the hall has a kitchen and a basement for storrage and a room where they threw a rave where madamme friction was at. Outside of the hall they have some venders where you can buy t-shirts and food and other goodies. This is all outside of the tree line and inside of the field. On the treeline is where most people camp.. there is a hill where some official camp grounds are located.. they have fires with little grills to cook your food on, and lots of chopped dry wood to burn to do this. all of the camping spots are usuly taken up by us younger 'raver' types before the older 'camper' foalk can get there.
they have this huge spot light type light set up right outside of the tent.. it can be seen from the city when pointed in the right direction, it is so bright it lightts up the sky with neato patterns and shapes. it is very cool to look at. there is also this inflatable man that was set up.. air is pumped though him and he dancies around.. he is about 50 feet tall and has spikey hair and a guitar, really cool thing.. i wish it were in my yard.
So the guy shows up at my house and i buy four pills. 3 for me and one for my buddy who i met at the kispiox music festival and tripped out on mush with.
We hitch hiked out there (which was risky, we had no garentee that we were going to get out there that way). Amazingly, we found a ride with one of my dads friends very quickly and we were at the gates within a matter of hours. The trip there is very senic, a ride on a windy road past a river, 3 lakes and in the mountians all the way. When we stepped out of the ford crew cab, We seen a lady there in a booth waiting for us to go passed to pay our fee.. We decided to save our money and sneek in, and since there was no security (or gate for that matter, just a booth where the road was) we walked up the road a little further and walked through the ditch and into the camping area where I found my good friend with his girlfriend and his truck (the same truck where i smoked meth at midsummer.. see http://www.bluelight.ru/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic&f=30&t=001280&r=1 ). this was a very plesent supprise and i told him right away that I was going to do E. He was proud and said "right on dude!!!" I was stoaked. It was probibly around seven when i decided to pop my first pill. Down the hatch it went. It was dark by the time I really started feeling it. I was in the mosh pit when Fableway was playing and Right when DJ Jolo started I popped another. The music stopped at about three when i desided to snort my final pill. I was building up the whole night and hadnt peaked yet. SOme one was blasting hip hop out of a near by truck. I was sitting in a folding chair right by the fire when I peaked. It was one of those expensive chairs that are ment for soccer matches and ruggid camping that are made out of expensive nilon plastic and aluminum. I managed to stretch the hell out of it when i was peaking.. It felt like I was in a space shuttle and my whole body was going though 5 g's worth of force.. the chair had broke and was now sloutching and I put so much force on it with my arms (i thought I was in a space ship and trying to control the spacecraft with my hands on the controls) that I broke one of the pins. As soon as I notaced that the chair (my space seet) was no longer as comfortable as it once was, i chose to sit on a pick-nic table. I was very tence. There were lots of people in this area, and most of them I knew. Just recently some one told me some of the strange things I was saying. One person told me that I said to a friend of mine "Your mom makes good cookies" I dont remember saying this at all. However, i do remember tasting his moms cookies and they were fucking great! i dont even remember him being out there. I also tossed some more sallad that i dont remember tossing.
One report from a classmate said that I was sitting on the picknick table eyes up in my head totaly fucked out of my mind. This guy smoked crack.. and he said that he has never seen anyone so fucked up in his life. That says a lot from some one who is a repeted rock smoker.
During the trip a helecoptor flew overhead, they were looking for pot growers that grow in the area.
It seams I was very talkative that night while talking to no one inparticular.
After the come down I notaced that trees looked like people out of the conners of my eyes and Sometimes i would say something to some one, and it turns out there is no one in sight for miles and it was just a tree I was talking to.
I have pictures of this place that I took with my camera and if some one tells me the codes to inserting photos on this board i will post them quickly..
 
Hi, thanks for sharing! That festival sounds like a great time. I can't wait until summer to start that back up again ;)
Nice report, however some thoughts for next time, don't hesitate to describe exactly how the substance made you feel, and be as descriptive as possible. Again, thanks :)
 
there arnt enough words in the english language for me to discribe exactly what it felt like.. or maybe im just not good enough at english.. anyways..
some of the words that would come with this trip are: Rush, Empathy, Ecstacy and damn... like i said.. my vocab isnt large enough to put the feelings i felt into one word..
there was definately a rush to it
 
i definetely have experienced trees having faces and forms when i'm on E. ONe time i was taking a walk through an arboretum peaking. The treees seemed very wavy, alwayz moving in a very fluid motion, if i tured somwhere fast, i saw an old buddha lookin man sittin in a lawn chair smoking a pipe, or i saw a dog barking. I alwayz get visuals in the forest. Nature does that to ya!!
 
I enjoyed reading this.
