Usually I do everything reverse. I practice something in movies and then I try it in real life.
I don't like alcohol, but I still like to mess around with other stuff occasionally. I think it's important I take mushrooms and acid. They're certainly not addictive, so I can't rule that out.
Let's just say I was testing the bounds of reality...
I'm stupidly curious. I will go and touch anything until I find out that it's very harmful.
I've tried everything. I can say to you with confidence, I know a fair amount about LSD. I've never been a social user of any of these things, but my curiosity has carried me into a lot of interesting areas.
Partying has never been my thing. I've been around some wild people. I've been in the same room and watched them experiment, and that's been entertaining.
I just love making sounds. Anything that made a sound, as a kid I was just taken back by and would sit with it for ages and just try and make all different sounds on it.
People say, "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas." Because people do wild and crazy things in Vegas that they probably wouldn't do any other time. Which is why I feel like, if you're gonna open your first restaurant, this might be the place to do it.
I've always been like a guinea pig when it comes to health trends.
I have to confess that a strong contributing factor was that I had just taken what was probably the first acid ever made, given to me by a guy called Johnny Fellows, who had just returned from America.
When I was in my late 30s, I lit a figure on fire on Baker Beach in San Francisco. It was me, a friend, and maybe eight people, tops. There wasn't any premeditation to it at all. It was really just a product of San Franciscan bohemian milieu.
It was fun. I'd never done anything like that. I'd never done any bi-sexual or lesbian scenes before, but it was really fun.
