Camp Bisco acid bust...14,000 hits seized...

WNYT | Read Full Story >

An Oregon man is sitting in a Schenectady County jail cell after being arrested over the weekend at the Camp Bisco Music Festival.

There were thousands of music lovers on hand for the three-day festival in Mariahville and police say Jonathan Taylor had more than enough LSD to go around—about 14,000 hits of acid. The Portland man is charged with three counts of criminal possession of a controlled substance, two of which are felonies.

“We’re not sure how he got it over the check points, but he did. That’s why security is here to ride around and the attendees too. They come here to have a good time. They don’t need that kind of stuff,” Bill Potter said.

Hello! They're at a jam band festival! OF COURSE they need that kind of stuff to tolerate the bad music and unshowered masses!

you might not need lsd to have a good time, but it certainly helps. espescially at a trance music festival. im just sayin..... i feel bad for the people that were there they didnt get any of those doses, i hope they were at least bunk hits.
turn on, tune in, and drop out.
long live the counterculture

pretty short article for such a big bust....

not sure how he got past the checkpoints LOL easiest thing to sneak in EVER...dumbasses. Besides, if the cops didn't get it, that kid woulda probly gotten popped by the biker security anyway...and they woulda just turned around and sold it anyway. Cause too much of a stir there, and they know about it. It's all about the benjamins.

ROCK ON BISCO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If anything, Camp Bisco is an Electronica, Trance, "Fusion" festival.

GRANTED, the Biscuits are a "jam band" yet "BiscOOOo" features some of the most successful WORLD music.

Think Before YOU speak.

Maybe you'll actually make it to the stage next year.
;o
