Watching a documentary on the legendary rock band “The Doors”, you gotta give it to the lead singer, Jim Morrison; he was a self destructive, crazy, wacked out, psychedelic muthafucka. Morrison lived, sex, drugs and rock n roll; long gone, Morrison is remembered today for his genius and incredible stage performances. What is it about being a musician that most of them live by this creed? Weed, LCD, cocaine, heroin all seemed like the breakfast of champions for these artists back in the day. Most of it can be attributed to the time they were living in, the dynamic and scope of the country at the time. The war in Vietnam, the assassinations of Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King, riots in cities across America, college campus protests and riots around the country and racial tensions all contributed to the music of the time.

It seems like this is a generational thing because artists today continue to live with a sense of recklessness. When he was free, Lil Wayne walked around with a Styraphone cup filled with only God knows what; Ozzy Osbourne bit the head off a bird. These are a few artists through the course of musical history that are the most wacked out, psychedelic artist of all-time. Artists that were fueled with a different concoction of whatever they were drinking, snorting or injecting during or after a performance. Artist that at one point or another was totally wacked out of their minds.
