I’m clearly not as cool as Carlos Santana though as that’s exactly what he decided to do before his legendary set at Woodstock back in the day. Sure, the biggest moment of your life, just drop a tab of acid before it no worries.

That is a jokes video. I just love watching his face during it. I know some people play guitar like that anyway, but damn, it’s even better when you learn that someone’s actually on acid and just trying to hold it together whilst still absolutely shredding and killing it on the guitar. Hero.
