At the age of 16 I took a high dose of Sunshine while listening to the full length of DSOTM. I ended up witnessing a large tree morph into a Thai Bhudda and the entire night sky turn into a lizard eye and look directly at me. Around a year later I moved out from my parent’s house to a city across the state. The room i rented was owned by an older married couple. One was a retired music journalist who had covered many Pink Floyd performances, and the other was a Thai immigrant who practiced Bhuddism his entire life. The first time I entered their home, I was greeted by the sight of a religious shrine. On that shrine there was the exact same Bhudda i had seen during my trip. And to make things even stranger, there was a cutout magazine interview the journalist had done with Roger Waters framed in the nearby hallway. To this day I still get shivers when I listen to that album, as so many things had allinged with my experience.
