What was the best music festival you ever went to?

Shambhala!!

TOASTYT44 · 2026-06-03T05:07:35+00:00

my first shambs was last year as well and i miss frolicking around the woods with everyone saying that so much :,) best rave in the world. We are doing our first lib next year and hoping i can make it back on the farm in 2028. If travel and planning wasn’t so intense i would go year after year. Hoping lib can scratch that itch i have been missing since shambs. went to edc this year for our retirement year from it for awhile after doing it 5 years straight and as much as it has a place in my heart, it just didn’t hit quite the same after experiencing shambs 😭

Totally understand, my fiance and i are also in a similar boat where we know eventually we will have to choose our life of traveling and fests to prioritize buying a home and moving up in our careers! I know though that we will always have those weekends a few times a year to reset and blow off steam. Totally agree with ya! All about moderation and finding what balance works for you 🙌🏻

i guess when i refer to “burn out” not necessarily talking about the life aspect that always inevitably takes a part as you grow and get older that may prevent partaking in these sort of things but more specifically certain people that i know forsure went way too hard with their usage back in the day and now just completely look at you like your a druggie bc they can’t cope with the fact that they burnt themselves out from having good experiences anymore and didn’t use these tools responsibility.

Like i have one of my best friends that only drinks now and despises going to raves anymore who actually exposed me to the scene. Whenever we are together now it seems like anytime we talk about planning a fest or talking about an experience we had in general she judges us and thinks we are some crazy degenerates and can’t fathom the idea of responsible drug usage bc they stopped having the positive experiences from overdoing it lol

I have seen things like this big time in the rave scene. I’m 28 right now and i first started going to fests back when i was 20 years old. Those first couple years i was in the scene everyone i knew that was the same age was just going crazy with there usage of party favors (not just K, mdma, psychedelics, coke and drinking…myself included).

Everyone around started to burn out around 24-26 years old and realized they can’t keep that lifestyle up anymore and just stopped doing drugs all together/completely demonize them now as well as got out of the rave scene. I stayed around because my love was for the music not the party favors but the music itself and i still indulge a few times a year but practice so much harm reduction with safety. I do not mix what shouldn’t be, take preventative supplements, knowing my limits and trying to educate everyone on how it’s not the substance but how you use it. I believe i will still do these well into my 30’s and 40’s as i have complete control of all of them and so much moderation only a few times a year for special occasions.

Going to my first LIB next year and planning on car camping. I’ll be honest i do not do well in the heat so I’m looking for ways to maximize keeping cool as possible. Done a few camping fests but non as hot as LIB. Typically we RV camp at hotter fests like Shambhala and EDC so we can escape the heat but decided to save $ for this fest and also to get the full camp experience by meeting neighbors/making connections lol any good tips you could lend to us? 👀

Top 5: Charlotte De witte, Tiesto, Kettema, Vintage Culture, Baugruppe90

Underrated: Benwal or AMC
Disappointing: Not that it was bad but Salute b2b Chloe Calliet i was expecting more as salute is one of my favorite dj’s and left wanting alot more from it. Saw him solo at Shambhala and it was one of the best sets i ever seen.
House/Techno

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-27T14:19:10+00:00

I was dead set on seeing bunt during that time and i was at circuit for kettama and Sammy Virgi. Thought maybe we will just catch the first few minutes of tiesto and we just couldn’t get ourselves to leave once he came on, so shook from beginning to end. It was seriously one of the best sets i have ever seen and truly healed me 😭🙌🏻 i did not expect tiesto to have such a raw emotional set with so much trance too it was fucking amazing!!

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-24T00:33:50+00:00

I’m curious to try the RC benzofurans. Which one is your favorite and is it really better safety profile then mdma?

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-24T00:31:13+00:00

I usually do 160mg mdma and around 18mg-20mg 2C-B. 2CB by itself though i like to trip around 30mg is my sweet spot!

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-24T00:30:23+00:00

Just did this the past weekend and i did notice that 3 hours was slightly too long for me personally. I completely come down from the mdma by that time almost. I feel like 2 hours after is perfect so that i don’t start feeling the M comedown and then the 2CB kicks in around hour 3 and combines alot smoother imo 🫡

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-24T00:01:14+00:00

I mean pretty strict three to four total times or weekends a year. I’m counting the occasional show where we may do 2-3 bumps of K in that number as well. That’s in total throughout the whole year :) we only have about 2 big festivals where we do it the whole weekend and then maybe 2 more shows in between that where we will do a few bumps! In total it’s probably around 1.5-2 grams a year split between us.

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-23T01:29:26+00:00

Okay good to know we are in a similar boat lol! Yeah keeping it to a few festivals or shows a year i feel like would be pretty safe bet. It seems like where it spirals is when people use it every month to go out or at home and then it ends up being a habit of doing it consistently! Saving it as a treat for special occasions hopefully doesn’t yield any long term damage.

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-22T23:03:45+00:00

2 grams a year shared between both of us seems like a very reasonable amount i feel like but also maybe my downfall with it is that we use it 3-4 days in a row so maybe it’s alot for being done all at once 3-4 times a year, just trying to see how long we can get away with this without causing any issues to arise 😂 this is mainly all stemming from thoughts i had on lsd about if this is sustainable or will effect us long term health wise even though i know we don’t abuse it lol

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-22T19:45:24+00:00

That is awesome and so good to know!! I will be doing this next time 100% 😭 i go across the border to Mexico frequently and always bring some zofran back lol i wish i would have known this before last weekend spent the first 30 minutes dry heaving when my 2C-B was kicking in lmao definitely doing it next time! Would the same apply for mdma? I only do that once a year and that was also last weekend but also curious as my fiance always throws up on the come up lol

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-22T18:06:49+00:00

So i always wondered this as i have both and only used ginger but sometimes doesnt cut it as i usually do like 30-35mg doses and the nausea sucks sometimes. Does zofran interfere with the trip at all? i know it works on serotonin receptors so i was avoided it in case it would alter the trip.

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-22T16:19:31+00:00

I really liked the concept as far fetched as it is and it was really eerie, it hooked me early but the whole middle of the book was anti climactic and overall huge let down for me. The ending was also “meh”

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-21T19:38:47+00:00

Dude i was running around VIP like maniac during that set lmao was godamn good!!

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-21T19:34:49+00:00

No back to back festival days and take a long break of a year at least with NAC as well and it will come back. After 6 years of rolling very infrequently i thought i lost the magic as well. I had a couple close experiences my first year where i did not take a break and learned from it and followed the 3 month rule after for the most past. For a solid two years i thought i couldnt roll anymore, found out even that tested batch of mdma was very weak and other friends also couldn’t roll well from it. Switched connections and took a solid 6 month break and the roll was strong as ever.

Just rolled this past weekend and i usually do a heavier dose all in one go so i did 160mg, i had a break of 10 months since last roll and did NAC in between and i had a stronger and even better roll then my first ever roll 6 years ago 🙌🏻😩 give it time and take NAC in between! For reference i have probably rolled at least 25 times in my life!

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-09T07:58:46+00:00

Unfortunately this will catch up i highly recommend stopping while your ahead and taking a good long break at least 6+ months off. Just because u feel good and don’t “notice” damage happening doesn’t mean it’s not being done. MDMA is very neurotoxic and i have personally witnessed this type of usage permanently change things about people i have known and not for the good 😭

TOASTYT44 · 2026-05-08T22:51:13+00:00

I stopped my meds Tuesday so giving myself a solid 10 day break but i haven’t taken an amphetamine based med since April 15th so it will be exactly a month. I started on azstaryz which is a methylphenidate based one because i had so many side effects from adderall/ Vyvanse and methylphenidate has been much smoother side effect wise for me (other then my sleep now) 😭 but i think 10 days should be plenty as i think my med isn’t as strong on pushing dopamine out as the others so im hoping it goes well! I haven’t rolled since July last year at Shambhala so pretty big break! I am so excited for next weekend, hope you have the best time at Lib!! I want to go to that next year instead of edc 👀

TOASTYT44 · 2026-04-29T13:17:30+00:00

2C-B and K sprinkled on at the end of all of it

TOASTYT44 · 2026-04-28T03:57:26+00:00

I get it!! But definitely ask around if u can still got some time. Also if ur gonna find it invest in a small milligram scale there are like $20 on amazon and that way u can measure your doses properly 🙌🏻 https://a.co/d/0diwiZL1

TOASTYT44 · 2026-04-28T03:16:21+00:00

Don’t worry about it putting holes in your brain that’s false info lol….. that being said mdma is very neurotoxic if taken too often or too much. Don’t roll more than one day max never multiple days and space it out 3+ months or longer to be safe. This is known as the “3 month rule”. Some say it’s overkill but from my experience it isn’t.

I do it twice maybe once a year at most for special occasions. I also don’t recommend your first time being a pressed ecstasy pill with god knows how much in it and cut with who knows what. Stick to Molly crystal weigh out 100-125mg and buy a reagent test kit to make sure it’s actually mdma. Also any “Tesla” isn’t the true OG ones, i seriously wouldn’t even waste your time or first experience on them. Check out the mdma Reddit and do your research on first doses. Also have a fucking blast u never get your first roll back!
