"If you don't believe drugs have done good things for us......?
then go home and burn all your records, all your tapes, and all your CDs"- Bill Hicks
Anyone else agree to some extent?
Without the bands in the late 60's and 70's rock music would be nothing.
I'm not saying that drugs are good I'm just saying that they HAVE done something for us. I'm talking more about weed, and LSD or shrooms then the harder stuff.
lol here's the rest of the quote-
"If you don't believe drugs have done good things for us, then go home and burn all your records, all your tapes, and all your CDs because every one of those artists who have made brilliant music and enhanced your lives? RrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrEAL f*cking high on drugs. The Beatles were so f*cking high they let Ringo sing a few songs."-Bill Hicks
Heroine and cocaine did nothing for us.
Example: When Jimi Hendrix only did weed and LSD his music was genius and deep, and he was a great guy.
But when he got into heroine and cocaine his music was okay, and completely changed him.
But then again look at the jonas brothers and other pop/"rock" bands today. They SUCK.

"Drugs are for people who can't handle reality."
"Reality is for people who can't handle drugs."
I agree.
I did drugs since I was 12 and quit at 16, when I got addicted to coke but after a couple months I couldn't afford it and went to meth. Got arrested a couple times, my little but thrown in the loony bin, then juvi, then rehab (in that order!), and I've been clean for a year on October 24th. And I do not regret, really. I learned a lot, I'm that type of person that your like "DUDE, the stove is HOT don't touch it!" but I have to touch it just to see lmao. I won't be doing drugs again (I mean, until I'm 60 then I'll be smoking weed every day because I'm going to dye high.) but I don't think they're all bad
AND TECHNICALLY, since people here like to get technical with they're definitions and such, caffine, nictotine, TYLONAL, advil, ext ext IS ALL DRUGS. You are using drugs, you dang druggies.
Most of America is addicted to caffine. If you don't believe me, don't have caffine for a couple days (soda, chocolate, coffe, ext have caffine). The with drawls of it are feeling sick, and a head ache.
So you could say, "yeah but daffine isn't as bad as weed." Well, weed isn't as bad as heroin.

The flow exists in the first place because our laws have created an underground market for it. We already tried to ban a substance back in the 1920s, and we all know how it worked out. Drugs are dangerous, but the federal government should not be legislating human behavior with regard to drugs like marijuana.

Yeah, it makes sense, but only to a degree. It's my opinion that the music is there someplace and if you need drugs to release it then you shouldn't be making music until you can write and play great songs without doing drugs. I don't support drug dependancy in any degree, but your way of thinking makes sense.

actually heroin and cocaine has helped the world greatly- medicinally.
you know what morphine, painkillers, etc? thats all a form of an opiate, heroin is an opiate. Oxycontin is simply synthetic heroin.
cocaine? there is slight traces of cocaine in things that numb your mouth, for dental purposes.
honestly i think opiates have done more for the world than LSD.

i love that quote! my friend has it on her facebook.
and yeah i agree with most of it, but drugs also took the lives of a lot of artists. so there's a good and bad side to it really.
