1
Now, Carlos, I know you've told this story a million times, but I have to ask.
2
It's been reported that every time you look at your performance at Woodstock and the Woodstock documentary, you either flinch or avert your eyes.
3
Why?
4
What is it about that performance that makes you do that?
5
Well when we landed, we were in this helicopter and I never seen so many, it was like an ocean of hair and teeth and arms
6
and when we landed the first person that I saw was Jerry Garcia and he says, what time are you going to go on?
7
I said, apparently two bands after you and he goes, well they make yourself comfortable, it's like 12.30 in the afternoon,
8
we're not going to go on until like 1 in the morning.
9
And I go, oh, I guess we're going to go around 3 o'clock in the morning.
10
Yeah, in the meantime, you want some of this?
11
And I was like, sure.
12
You know, I just did the math between now.
13
Yeah, I'll be fine by then.
14
What was it?
15
It was acid.
16
It was LSD.
17
And so I went, and as soon as I took it,
18
it was like, everything became another dimension.
19
And then I see this phase coming and saying, if you don't play now, you're not going to play at all.
20
You need to go on right now.
21
And I'm like, oh my God.
22
okay, you know, I thought I had six, seven hours to recuperate from because, you know, it's kind of like a roller coaster.
23
You know, you go through this.
24
And so I said, okay, take a deep breath.
25
And I discovered a mantra back then without even knowing, God, please help me.
26
Help me to stay in tune and in time.
27
And I promise I'll never do this again.
28
Sure.
29
So I went up there and so when I started playing, of course, the guitar neck,
30
the neck and the guitar started wavering, you know, like a snake.
31
And I was like, oh, uh-oh.
32
So I just started making faces because I was trying to keep it tame, you know, I was trying to keep it from slithering all over the place.
33
When I first saw the movie, Jimi Hendrix lady took me to see it.
34
He had left that morning for Maui.
35
So she says, hey man, what are you doing?
36
I says, oh, you know, just got a day off.
37
Well, go unpack your stuff and come.
38
I want to take you to this movie.
39
What movie?
40
I says, what's that?
41
What's that?
42
They made a movie?
43
Yeah, wait till you see it.
44
We saw it last night with Jimmy and when you guys came on, you guys freaked him out.
45
I go, really?
46
He goes, he loves your energy, man.
47
He loves your performance and he's like,
48
so you know it's such a beautiful badge of honor that someone so imperial like Jimi Hendrix would dig our performance.
49
I feel really grateful because it takes a lot of courage to go in front of 550,000 people
50
at the peak of this mine expensive,
51
kind of like a shaman going through from, anyway.
52
Fortunately it was successful.
53
It was more than successful.
54
I mean, it was masterful.
55
I know you're a modest guy, but you stole the show.
56
I give the credit to God, man, because that's what I keep praying for.
57
Always, just like with diligence, please, please, please.
58
I trusted that my fingers knew where to go and what to do.
59
What I was calling up to make the connection was with my spirit and God, so that God would say,
60
okay, take a deep breath, take a deep breath, and I'm going to guide you, navigate through all this mind hallucination stuff.
61
Because, you know, it's, and then I began to really like it.
62
I used to do it here in New York a lot.
63
But I thought you promised God you wouldn't do it again.
64
You didn't keep your promise?
65
Well, I didn't do that specific acid.
66
You know, I took some other, like, a mezcal and any peyote and other kind of stuff.
67
Actually, nowadays, I don't think people are, maybe under supervision, I'm not endorsing it,
68
but I would say that even Cary Grant under supervision needed to, because when you take it, it's also like a snake shedding all beliefs.
69
You know, under supervision, it's actually very therapeutically healing for you.

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
