you should have done these things because you wanted to. Now you're saddled with an unhappy mail order bride. My advice? Find a ditch in the woods and bury her there. As long as none of your friends or family knows about her, you'll be all right! Soon you'll be selling insurance and buying a home in the burbs...

And except for those wierd nights when you stop by the gravesite, alone after work, and think of what you've done, you'll be a happy fool!

I hear you Chroma; you just need to pack it away for a few weeks and get out for a while.

its all about scheduling, man! Youre just in the honeymoon stage...feel like you gotta take it all in at once

its a cool feeling. Nice thing is that when it fades its not like things dont feel so good..they just dont take as long to get to where you want em, so you have more time to do other things!

life is OUTSIDE, too!

Well, I just bet a stamp collection wouldn't be as interesting on mushrooms.

We all need a hobby that fits our lifestyle.

Its the flashing lights... they're hypnotic... your studio is alive and it feeds off your creative life energy.. feeding and feeding and feeing until...

..You become a UK garage producer... ;)

There is no turning back... bring out your dead... save yourselves...

lavalamps are cool (I have one myself) but they are so standard in every homestudio... it's almost cliché

You also need a light dimmer...hehe

Chroma, just make something and don't care if it's good or not. Just make it for fun and have fun making it..

Hey! I have a light dimmer too! And a blacklight intalled in the ceiling on a seperate circuit! hmmmm, maybe I'm just old!

Paint it black! And then have your friends come over and graffiti the crap out of it! And paste rave flyers for all your shows all over the ceiling! And put up some serious hardcore Hentai manga sh*t where the demons are just workin' some sailor moon character!

Oh, and don't forget the little statue of buddha necxt to the mixer!

cool, I need blacklights. I wonder if they will release a synth with flashing blacklights instead of usual leds.. hehe.

Or an analog synth with a lavalamp that shows how hot the circuit is.. how's the filter flavour today?

I want a magic 8ball that has knobs too.

a van der graaf generator is what your looking for. I scored two vintage "Stoned Again'" velvet posters, mint, for a buck each. one over each monitor, it'll be lovely.

ahh, 'shrooms season .....

I wouldn't recommend taping posters over your monitors. Might affect high frequency response.

moonunit sez he scored two vintage "stoned again" posters, which shows a guys head progressively melting between his hands. It was drawn by 60s SF underground cartoonist R. Crumb, as is the above picture. and "big ass" in the other thread. that's all.

lol @ psylichon

well d, vintage i don't know really, but it reads 1975 Monarch publication and a phone number.

i'm still looking for that elusive pop garage sell where i get to say:

"how much for the shinny funny looking plastic box?"

twelve hundred bucks

and then you wake up in a sweat, screaming...
