Stories from the Goa Trance Parties

The Goa trance scene of the 90's was a very special thing to be part of. Sound systems were set up in the jungle and you'd turn up at 3 or 4 in the morning, after the drunks and tourists had fallen asleep, and drop acid on a dance floor full of cartoon characters from around the world.
It was a wild, anarchic scene with the police extorting all they could out of the parties, people flipping out on the dance floor, coachloads full of Indian tourists letting off fireworks and travelers from around the world blowing their mind to repetitive beats.
If you have a great story to tell and would like to feature it on the Road Junky podcast feel free to be in touch to tom@tomthumb.org
Or just come and share it around the fire in the Sahara Desert at one of the Road Junky Retreats that take place each winter in Morocco.
