Tommy Lee joins Theo Von - talks about drinking absinthe with Marilyn Manson

On the most recent episode of Theo Von’s Podcast, Tommy Lee recalled his experience drinking absinthe with Marilyn Manson and his very first acid trip.

During the conversation lasting more than two hours, Von and the Motley Crue drummer covered a variety of subjects — but especially mind-altering substances.

Lee revealed that he was just 13 years old the first time he experimented with LSD because a girl at his school had it.

"What a fucking trip man, that shit was wild," he said. "And immediately, you do all the shit that you heard you're not supposed to do. Like, 'Dude, whatever you do, do not look in the mirror.' Where's the mirror?"

Later in the conversation, Von asked Lee if he ever met Manson, and the drummer responded that he did.

"He's a fucking great guy," Lee praised, and then a photo of the musicians together appeared on the screen.

He shared that Manson introduced him to a specific type of absinthe, which is an "overproof liquor" made from a variety of herbs known for its potentially hallucinogenic effects. It also used to be Manson's vice of choice.

"I started hallucinating on this shit," Lee said of the type of absinthe Manson gave him. "It was purple-colored."

Apparently, the musicians engaged in some sort of "ritual" where they melted sugar cubes with fire and let the sugar melt into the liquor. Lee admitted that he hallucinated when he drank it.
