Iggy Pop & DMT"In the '60s, I took DMT," Iggy Pop recalled. "DMT was a gaseous wax that you could smoke that gave you a 20-minute psychedelic high. You'd inhale it. And then when you'd exhale—poof, you'd be high. I saw Buddha, man. I know that sounds like no big deal. But I saw a gigantic holographic Buddha — correct in every way! Buddhas can be very intricate — these drawings that you see in books. Thousands of details were included in this Buddha. Where did they come from? I didn't make them up. I can't even draw, you know? I could barely spell cat, you know? And there it was. And I thought, Wow — the power of the mind, you know?"
["One time I took LSD and some really strong weed before a concert," Pop recalled of another occasion, "and it was like when the television goes vertical and doesn't stop. Then I had drug amnesia for a while. I didn't know who I was."]
