Lately I've been experimenting with low doses of DXM and mixing it with other things while socializing or even reading a book. Example: I needed a new distortion pedal because I didn't like the sound I was getting on a blues album I'm making. I took about 300mg of DXM and two valium and went shopping for a pedal in a guitar shop. I was just high enough to experience Huxley's "suchness" (peoples eyes glowing and colors standing out) but the valium blurred the edges just right, totally relaxing me. When I checked out various pedals I could distinguish the subtlties between them with absolute clarity. Also I played a solo that stopped everyone in the store momenterily--I'm sure I took 'em along and rubbed some contact DXM into their minds. Moral: You don't have to trip out to enjoy the effects of whatever your doing. Pills (downers) are probably the best for blending, just make sure they're not MAOI's.
