Larry Hangman of Dallas and I Dream of Jeanie LSD Secret Revealed
Some actors are lucky enough to get one role that goes on to be iconic. Larry Hangman was fortunate enough to have two as Major Nelson in I Dream of Jeanie, and the notorious J.R. Ewing of the 80s nighttime soap, Dallas.
But there’s more to Larry than just acting. He also likes to get his LSD on.
The National Enquirer reports that LARRY HAGMAN did more than Dream of Jeanie - his mind bending trips on LSD set his brain synapses ablaze like Krakatoa, East of Java -- and he thinks DC politicians should do the same!
Hagman, 79, best known as conniving Texas oilman J.R. Ewing on the nighttime soap Dallas, will discuss his mind-altering experiences under the influence of LSD at a psychedelic conference in Los Angeles Dec. 11 at an event sponsored by the Multidisciplinary Association of Psychedelic Studies (MAPS).Hagman, who beat a lifelong battle with the bottle, said he was first turned on to "acid" by David Crosby backstage at a Corsby, Stills & Nash concert during the 1960s.
He recalled, "David ... handed me a handful of little pills. I said what the (EFF)? He says 'This IS LSD'. It was the best going around at that time. "This was before Blue Cheer and Windowpane. This was the original Owsley. He gave me about 25 pills. I said, well, how much should I take? He says, well, don't take more than one…."
Hagman called his first acid trip "the most illuminating experience of my life." "I would highly recommend it for people who study and prepare for it and who are not neurotic or psychotic," Larry said.
