Did anyone else do this? I went after the Radiohead show in 06. i think we just stumbled upon while taking a little trip. it was SO cool and SO relaxing.
they put these glasses on you that flash patterns of light, but you have your eyes closed the whole time, and you have headphones, too. then they zip you up in these hammock type things and let you lay there and relax for 10 minutes. the hippie chick running the thing came and tickled my feet to wake me up...i hadn't even realized it was over!

more info please...was this in centeroo??? cost? been there all six years??? imight of walked by it several years and didn't even notice it....damn!!! more info please???
Kinda reminds me of a guy named Gong Dave. Every fest he goes to he brings these pretty big Gongs and this incredibly comfortable hammock like chair. The chair just cradles you naturally like a mother holding her young. Dave and the elites he trust with his gongs then tell you to breath in a way that you know is relaxing "like slipping into a warm soothing bath after a hard day"
Then they take those cotton ended sticks(?) and play a pattern that they feel like playing.
The experience is truly amazing and different each time you can actually see your mind making a color interpretation of the sound it is hearing. You see various "trippy' and kaleidescope like patterns all through out.
When your done, you feel like you just woke up from a mid summer nights dream and are not really sure what to do next actually for a while you don't care. It is like some one reset you.

i've only been to roo once, and it was 06, so i'm not sure if it was there before then. i really wish i could tell you where it was, but i was a bit incapacitated due to certain substances that impede my memory as far as geography is concerned.
i want to say that i remember the ferris wheel being in plain sight, but that's about it. we didn't know it was there, but we walked by it and wondered what it was. i believe it was under $10, so we figured why the hell not.
There's no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard. No song that I could sing. But I can try for your heart Our dreams, and they are made out of real things Like a, shoebox of photographs With sepiatone loving Love is the answer
A little feeling in my gut that I get of late when I think about these cats running the world with hate
Vegoose 2006 I'm waiting for Tom Petty to come on and I'm chillling sitting next to this hippy and he's got the glasses on and hes trippin out to it so he takes them off chats with me and is like hey you want to try something I was like sure what is it, at this point I didn't notic the glasses and he was like you have to do it without me telling you so at first I was a little sketched out but me I'm open minded to people so I was like sure and he then replied oh by the way do you get seizures? I was like no and he responded Great you can do it then. So I throw them on and Petty comes on stage and I was just zoned out because you don't normally close our eyes and see these crazy light patterns like fireworks, and waves in different rythms to some Petty music was a fun experience. So I asked the hippy how long he does it for and said for hours at a time some nights I was in shock I seriously think that much Mind machine would screw with your sense of darkness. Also normally most people would have better judgment when a stranger says hey do you want to try something new and then follows it with oh by the way do you get seizures probably wouldnt do what i did which was trust the stranger but you know trust your instincts hippy's are harmless.
