    Very few people venture as deep into life as these two men. They get it absolutely and unapologetically. The amount of skill and artistry and attention to detail and stick-to-itiveness it takes to be able to pull off what they dream up to me is unattainable. Luke conceptualizing and Nick interpreting is a match made in heaven, and we are the beneficiaries.

    Why are we so dismissive of true human expression and coat something in invalidity by saying that a person is on drugs? Whether either of them or on drugs, off drugs, whatever, that is there experience. If you don't get it, then let it be or ask questions. Have a conversation . But if something someone says speaks to you, then the mask it hides under doesn't matter. Oh and besides, maybe taking something into your body that sets you completely outside of yourself and allows you to view the world through a more objective reality isn't that bad after all.

    Luke's probably wearing sunglasses because he may feel uncomfortable around NIck. Nick left Luke to tour 2 years alone because he said he wouldn't get out of bed for less than a million dollars, which really hurt Luke. That's why you never see Nick on tour with Luke.

      This video is Luke talking about how Nick left him alone to tour by himself because there was no real money on the table.

      It's a UA-cam video called "Nick Littlemore won't get out of bed for less than a million dollars"

    Sir Donald wonders, if Nick sat on his hands, if he would still be able to talk.
