GHOST OF RAINBOW’S DAWN
I’ve told this story a few times, and it’s even alluded to on the live ‘Demo’ of this same song above.
Dom, Jonathan, Rich and I were playing a 4th of July party one year. We played a short set because there was another band on the bill. After our set, I was STARVING. You gotta eat when it’s 105° F and you don’t hydrate. So a friend offered me a brownie and I ate it so fast I barely tasted it. And then I grabbed two more and wolfed them down. That’s when my friend looked at me and said, ‘Hey! Slow down man!’
So, they were Pot Brownies. I’m not going to throw them up, because just No. So I tried to deal with it. I couldn’t. I got in my car as soon as the world started spinning too fast and got straight home. I’ll never know the exact timeline, but somewhere later that night I remember seeing my reflection in the front door window as I was slithering around the house. Only it wasn’t my face I saw, it was a Native American warrior. And he wasn’t happy with me. Sure, I’m making all of this up, I thought, but how frickin’ cool would it be if it was real, and I’m just closer to the nebulous membrane of reality because i’m so inebriated on THC, which is a natural substance that has been around forever?
I wrote some crib notes on a pad and went to bed. I woke up and read my notes and was shocked to see that not only had I hallucinated the above scenario, but I also saw that I had obviously bungee corded my loveseat and couch together so they would stop following me around the room.
