Tell us about your weird dreams here ! :D


Last night I did a very strange one.

I was in a car, with my familly, driving in mountains, suddenly a big storm, and a tsunami. We had to drive across a dam, so my father accelerated full speed and crossed the dam :?

Then we were in a house with Dustin Hoffman wearing a cowboy hat, my father had turned into Mel Gibson meanwhile. And Dustin was begging him for a kiss... Then I woke up :)

That's mad! I dreamt last week that i won a comp to hang around with Tom and Ed at a festival they were paying at. It was awkward and boring. I woke up before they played too. :(

Ok this will be a hard on to imagine but i'll do my best. I was at home for some reason, i live in the countryside, and for some reason someone was after me, possibly cops and i could pick up radio signals through some experiment that may have happened earlier in my dream.

My mum was all "go sort yourself out", so i went out the back of the house to go to the shed. It was evening time with a clear pink sky with some light clouds off to the west,(where i was looking) when i see the silhouette of a fighter jet off in the distance. It dropped something from the wing that had a flashing blue light in front of it. I realised this was a missile as it took off in front of the jet.

As the missile flew off, the jet followed it and it flew right past the front of my house as I was watching and i could hear the pilot shouting into his radio "I've locked a target, I'm losing it, comin around!" when all of a sudden the missile came back, locked onto my radio-brain, and hit the ground in our back garden where it shattered, releasing little black balls. As i watched the balls they began to glow, brighter and brighter and my mum was in the kitchen lookin out the window and i had to shout "Get back!!".

I ducked into the shed and avoided all the little explosions that happened next and then looked out. There were more, even smaller black balls on the ground now but i knew they were dormant.


I walked through the debris to find a blue rucksack, the kind with a rope to tie it, and when i opened it there were a whole bunch of missiles, all with the blue flashing light. I dropped the bag and ran inside, to decide what I should do. Next thing I was in a bar, away from home so my mum would be safe when I met my contact, a guy who couldn't be tracked down by cops cos he was made of paint. He looked like a kid had drawn an abstract kinda face using only L-shapes, and I couldn't stop thinkin about the Cheshire Cat in Alice and Wonderland. He kept fading at the edges and changing shape kinda(A Scanner Darkly anyone?) and we were gonna work out a deal....but then i woke up. It's the most lucid and intense dream i've ever had and am shocked that i remember so much detail about it.


Anyway, i'm no challenger for king of carpal tunnel, so that's it. Laterz.

another one last night :


I was with friends and we were entering a strange world where you have to open your head with a knife to enter. At each door you have to show your brain to enter, otherwise a man at the door shoots you with a gun. really really weird :s

Bam - just remembered my dream from last night. You know how you sometimes forget when you wake up, then when you're doing something totally unrelated (like I did, just now when I was making my son's bed) it just pops into your head?


So I had this dream I was at work and my computer crashed. I brought one of the tech guys, this person Bob I work with, over to my computer and he gets my computer up and running, but for some reason I was not longer connected to the office network. The only thing that would come up was this fricken forum. I'd close my browser, open it back up, and this forum would be there. I cleared my caches, and I went to get on the network, and there was this friggen forum - it just wouldn't go away and my name whirly was up at the top in massive letters eating about a quarter of the page. The tech guy brought over other people from IT to figure out what was going on, and this damn forum kept popping up over and over and over no matter what we did. Finally, it didn't matter if I was connected to the internet, because the forum was now a live desktop and no matter what anyone did, it just wouldn't go away!


Finally the CEO comes over and says, "oh yeah, this sort of thing happened to another gal that I worked with. The reason why it's happening is because when you spend too much time doing one thing on company computers, eventually that is all the computer comes to recognize and cancels out everything else. And just how much time are you spending here on this messageboard when you should be working, hmmmm?"


I tried explaining that the only time I ever come on the board at work is when I'm on lunch, and I haven't actually had more than 2 lunch breaks in the past 2 weeks so there was no way... no way... something like this could be happening.


"Uh huh... well, when Linda gets back I think we will need to discuss with her how much you really need a job and what your term of employment actually means to you here."


(Linda is my supervisor and she's been gone for nearly 3 weeks).


I panicked. And only because I was being truthful, I only log on at work when I'm taking my lunch break. I tried to turn off my computer, and it wouldn't let me. It was really kind of terrifying, like something out of the twilight zone. :lol:


God, I hate dreaming about work when it's the weekend...

i just had a dream the other day whwere a go kart was wandering aimlessly in the woods and crashed into a pine tree. it woke me as i happened to have been sleepin by the pine it hit. the po-po were coming to investigate so i decided to flee and as i ran rather trotted through the forest i came upon some red tinsel. a bag of tinsel. i started to leave a trail of tinsel beind me, incase i needed to get back to the gokart/ this seemed to have go on for hoours when i found myself at the banks of the hudson river overlooking the city. New york. and i swam the hudson. it was november. (CHARCO THIS IS DESTINY I TELL YOU) i found myself downtown wandering around at my friend chrissy's partment biulding. where i found a cat. my cat. which led me to loud noise, a distorted subwoofer sound. it was the chems. at hammerstien. me and two brothers walked in. and my little bro' 17 year old. finally saw what i had been preaching for many years; the true SUNSHINE UNDERGROUND. the glint in his eyes made my wake from my slumber and search to see if they had posted the tour date. unfortunatley naught. but still i hope for the best.

US date please.

My oddest dream ever was of groups of 20-something british identical twins born of a group of lesbians who had taken sperm donations, sipping methadone in kool-aid from paper cups while bickering about their inability to remember the outcomes of random events on the TV they impulsively bet nonexistant money on.

Wow, I just had a dream that I went to see the Chemical Brothers in Amsterdam with my girlfriend, and for some reason I totally got the time wrong, or they changed the time and didn't mention it to all involved.


Basically, the show was horrible. It started at 6:30 in the evening while it was still light out, I got there right as the Chemical Brothers went on, when I went out onto the floor, barely anyone was dancing and there were so few people there it made me think of a junior high school dance. The Chems were playing a great set, but the mood was fucking dire, and after all was said I was so disappointed that this had to be my girlfriend's first Chemical Brothers experience.


After that we went back to our hotel room, and hilariously enough, Jeanie and Whirly, you guys started to hang out with us and it was AWESOME! I was so bummed about the show and my girlfriend was doing her best to comfort me, but after all of us started hanging out, we had the most amazing, kick ass, ridiculous time ever. I can't explain in words how silly and awesome it was, but trust me when I say it made me forget about one of the biggest disappointments I had ever experience in my life inside of the dream, and our journey to Awakenings was an edifying one.


I think all it meant was despite how the concert goes, it will be an amazing trip, and though Whirly won't be there, which will make me sad, of course, Jeanie I'm going to look forward to meeting you and all the rest of you awesomeness-bots from the board.


And I think my anxiety about the Amsterdam show in my dream last night stems from the show I saw in 2005 where the Chemical Brothers played Okland. The crowd... was... terrible. Okay, there was this moment that summed it all up--I was dancing and kind of letting loose next to this guy who stood there with his arms folded across his chest during the beginning of the set. I expected him and all the rest to get into it and kind of go with the flow, but he just kept standing there with his arms crossed and I kept bumping into him. In fact, it was really awkward and I almost had to fight to find my own space to dance.


Anyway, all of the other Chemical experiences have been pure energy and amazement, with the crowd responding in awe. In fact, the next night at Coachella (yes, I drove 500 miles to see them twice in two days), I'd have to say it was definitely the best crowd seeing the Chemical Brothers I had ever seen. Here's the moment that summed up that set: I look back at one point and I see EVERY... SINGLE... PERSON... thousands and thousands of people with their hands in the air, clapping the energy peaking, and listening to that set again and again (as I have it from whomever it was who thankfully recorded that set), I can say that I was so impressed by the crowd's involvement that it completely erased my previous night.


Anyway, here's to future Chemical experiences, to future adventures, and leaving the anxieties of the past behind only to focus on the amazing energies to come, and even the ones already here.

Awwww!!! Now I'm feeling so guilty I won't be there in Amsterdam!


I can totally see where the fear of a bad show comes from. It makes sense. I'll never forget your post (I think it was you) in that long Coachella thread where you described Oakland to Coachella as going from purgatory to nirvana.


So MadPooter, you're going to have a great time at the show and your girlfriend is in for a hell of a time for her first chemical cherry poppin' experience. As for me not being there to party, we'll just have to make the kick ass part of the dream a reality when the Chemical Brothers come to California. Los Angeles is definitely a given if they stop by, but if they do a show in San Francisco, I'm on it like white on rice. I'm just waiting for those dates!

My most lucid dreams always involve music. Once i dreamt I was feeling very good and listening to close your eyes. The bit where it goes 'what if it all were to change like I thought it would' or something like that. Been a while since I listened to it. Then it changed into Breathing(Kate Bush)The bit that goes 'What are we going to do' while a man in the background is saying 'the calling card of a nuclear weapon is a blinding flash which is far more dazzling than any light on earth brighter even than the sun itself.' At this point I started to melt which woke me up. talk about good dreams going bad. More recently I dreamt my cat was lying in a field of flowers with Bent's As you fall, getting louder and louder in my head. I woke up after feeling overwhelming grief in the dream. We lost him just before the roundhouse as he was too ill for the cattery. He was a rescue cat and i'd had him for 20 years. I miss him :-(

Aw, :-(


Sorry to hear about your cat.


I've haven't had any dreams which end with my demise, but I've had quite a few with an intense fear still lingering after waking.


The dream I posted about in my last post in this thread was just hilarious--I remember talking to Jeanie and she kept falling asleep at her keyboard while on the computer.

Last night I had an awesome dream about a really small, very cool Chemical Brothers gig which took place with full visuals in what could only be described as a large bar.


Jeanie, you were there buying beans from some dodgy looking character. Whirly, you were rocking it as well. My girlfriend and I were hanging out on top of a bunch of pillows waiting for the show to start. And when it started, they opened with Star Guitar, and it was absolutely phenomenal. To feel the energy in the place was to touch your fingers to God and let its awesome pulse flow through you.


I'll take it as a good omen for the two Chemical Brothers shows next month. :)

hahaha Pooter, that is too funny!!


I haven't had a Chemical related dream in a while. But the closer the gig gets, the more likely it'll be stuck in my conscious and subconsciousness so that'll spill over into my sleepytime. Hopefully whatever future dream I have won't involve: Tom and Ed ordering the audience into a pool or else they won't play/getting lost at the toilets and missing the gig/getting lost in the venue and missing the gig/losing my tickets and missing the gig/pick random scenario that results in me missing the gig - like almost every other chemical gig dream I have. I'm always losing my way and missing a the damn show.


(Yes, I do have a subconscious fear of missing a Chemical gig that's vividly brought to life through weird dreams I have!)
