[Vendor Review] BlueViking [SR2]

Order: 10x 180ug House Blotters Vendor: BlueViking Marketplace: SR2

Shipping: 5/5 - Domestic, Ordered Saturday marked processed in less than six hours. Arrived Wednesday.

Stealth: 5/5 IMHO the accolades received by the vendor are well deserved

Communication - 5/5 Quickly the vendor let me know my communication wasn't processing (PGP issues). I resent and the order was updated to reflect forward progress.

Product 5/5 It's acid, I wanted acid, I ordered acid, BV sent acid. Done deal.

Trip Report: This was the first time I've used LSD. I've taken shrooms about 10 times in my life, so I was familiar with "tripping."

Setting: Music Fest on the Beach, day 3 of 4.

Drop: 5:30pm-ish waiting for the Bloody Beetroots to go on. I cut two tabs very crookedly while getting set up in the morning. Of the smaller half, I cut that into four pieces. I took the larger half that was intially untouched (approx 1.15 of a blotter...190-200mics give or take) Female friend took 1/2 of the remaining dose, 2 of the 4 pieces for roughly at 60-80mic dose, she's tiny and this was also her first time.

Come up: The come up was much slower than I'm accustomed to. Nearly two hours before I "felt" it. I read countless trip reports and regardless, it felt like an eternity. I began to question the dose/product, but continued to do my best to assure myself he had acquired a quality reputation for a reason. I theorize that being surrounded by the experience that was the Flaming Lips and it's weirdness in itself distorted my processing to the point where when I felt the initial waves far before I vocalized it.

Peak...I think: Intially, just brighter colors and most acute sound perception. A couple of fits of unexplainable/ contagious giggles. After the Flaming Lips we went to Pretty Lights (8:50pm). The transition from one stage to another and passing so many people was when I realized how far removed from reality I was. I tried to voice this to our friends who were in a much different state, but to no avail. We settled into a good spot with room to jam as we felt necessary, but people continued to push and maneuver their way into any semblance of space. I guess I'm getting old, but I wanted out of the sardine type atmosphere. The stage and tent structure wasn't build to handle the amount of people at the show, and much of the crowd overflowed to areas that were more designated as "chill zones." All the people bumping and jockeying for position in my trance like state was messing with me and causing me to question if I should be more aggressive. Which I knew wasn't a good feeling. My friend shared the similar feeling and we walked away from the show several minutes after it began in search of a more private setting. Once away from the crowd we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves. We enjoyed a walk home.

For the next few hours we enjoyed ourselves in an adult manner. It was ridiculous. At one point, as the fest closed for the day they began a fireworks display. We transitioned to the balcony and continued to enjoy ourselves. After a shower we had some fruity frozen alcohol drinks, flavors were incredible during the experience.

All in all, the experience was great. If I were to do it over, I don't think a festival is the best place for a first timer. However, I did feel as if it was my duty to protect the girl I was with and perhaps that took away from me being able to deal with the more aggressive crowd. I was in the same spot the day earlier for STS9 and it was far less people and way more chill. I intend on trying again, perhaps 1.5-2blotters and enjoying nature in a more private environment.

Nice review.

I could only imagine how amazing it would be to see The Flaming Lips on acid. Kudos, man.

That's the bummer about massive festivals like that and acid. You really have to keep an edge to yourself when stuck in a sea of people. Especially when a lot of them are sloppy drunk and pushing toward the stage. That doesn't help any anxiety you may have...

Sounds like it was mostly fun! Glad you enjoyed your experience, Nature is a great place, too. Personally, I would bring some music. I like having music in there for at least part of the trip. =)

edit: Oh, yeah, +1 for BV!!
