Brent and Tony answer your questions in this Q&A episode covering how festivals have changed as they got older, their most challenging psychedelic trips, and the wildest stories from over a decade of…
How did you festival when you were 20 versus now?
Uh, I didn't prepare
at all physically.
What does that mean? Like I didn't give any thought into, should I not work out the day before, uh, or like how much stress, I think just in general, as you get older, you like start calculating all the amount of stress.
And then like this thing you got to go do, you're like, okay, so this was a tough week at work.
I probably got to go sauna.
And then I should probably get a little more sleep or whatever.
Right.
I'm like, okay, the week before, like I'm, it's a month away.
So like preparing now in my head, I'm like, okay, you got to get your shit dialed in your sleep, getting better.
Right.
Because The more responsibilities you have, which naturally should happen as you get older, the more you just have to be on physically, mentally, all these things for friends, business, all this stuff.
And it falls apart more because you're just less
resilient in some ways.
Yeah.
When you're 20, you can fall off a roof and just jump up and you're fine.
Yeah, I can't.
And I also have to like, think about the state of stress and then the substances I take in combination.
And if I'm overworked and you're managing a bunch of stuff and you're mentally stressed or physically stressed, and then you go into a four day festival, you don't think about it.
Those are the people you see leave on stretchers.
Those are the people that are just like, bloop, I just do things and I don't think about it.
And then they have, they're the people freaking out.
Oh no, it's the consequences of my actions.
Back again.
