I See Stars Members Arrested For Possession Of Hallucinogenic Drugs
I See Stars were arrested and subsequently released on $1000 bond this past week(August 30th) by the Saline County Police. Various members of the group were arrested for “possession of certain hallucinogenic drugs w/intent to use drug paraphernalia into human body.”
Among those arrested were vocalist/keyboardist Zach Johnson (who apparently had a prior conviction), vocalist/programmer Devin Oliver, guitarist Brent Allen, bassist Jeff Valentine and drummer/vocalist Andrew Oliver.
Booking photos for all of the above can be found over at Salinapost.com. Devin Oliver himself tweeted the following on the situation:
“Just had the worst 13 hours of my life.”
“First and last time in jail”

I See Stars? So it’s not just a clever name.
And all they had to do was look up when it was dark out.
Hunter S. Thompson is laughing himself to death.
if he hadn’t shot himself in 2005 that might be true.
I’m thinking of a certain My Chemical Romance song right now………
Why would you do that to yourself?
Haha oh your sarcasm detector is broken.
More likely, his MCR reference detector wasn’t working. As should be the case.
I actually really enjoy MCR, Danger Days was a very solid album.
Danger Days lost me a bit but I appreciate their exploration into different areas. I’d say MCR are a guilty pleasure considering how most of what else I listen to is of the metal variety but I don’t even feel guilty about it. No one’s in MCR’s league in what they do.
MCR is one of the catchiest bands in the last 20 years
I disagree wholeheartedly with everything said here. That band annoys to an illegal degree.
The wording of that charge is weird. I’ve never used paraphernalia when taking mushrooms. Must be some new method kids are using.
They probably considered the peanut butter, OJ, and Kitaro CDs paraphernalia.
Nice one!! I made an audible lol’d at Kitaro
Mac’s an expert.
perhaps they were smoking DMT. that would explain the paraphernalia
Pretty sure whoever wrote that is just terrible writing. Even if it was a drug commonly used with paraphernalia, you wouldn’t be using it “into human body.”

(dammit)
Mushrooms should not be illegal. No matter how many of them you eat, you can never overdose. The most that could happen is that you would vomit them all up. They have grow naturally all over the Earth since before human kind existed.
If I want to walk onto a cow pasture, pick the mushrooms off of their manure and put them into my mouth, then goddamnit it is my right to do so! On top of that, there are no side effects and no addictive properties in them. What the fuck is the problem?
One, it never said mushrooms, for all u know it was stamps, liquid vile, etc.
2nd, no side effects? What world do u live in? Anyone that’s done them (at least the legit shit) knows there’s side effects.
3rd, when u go crazy and start acting all kinds of fucked up in public, it becomes a problem to other people. You ever been around someone on a bad trip?…..especially when it’s someone u don’t know?….not cool sir. Not cool.
ballsofmetal: I have eaten mushrooms countless times since I was a teenager. When I say no side effects, YOU must be a dumbass if you think I meant nothing happens to your body/mind. I was talking about withdrawal symptoms. I have consumed too many shrooms dozens of times, and while you might have a “bad” trip, the next morning there are virtually no side effects. Maybe some exhaustion from your travels through the cosmos, but certainly nothing like a hangover after a night of drinking.
If you are irresponsible enough to eat a bag of shrooms and think you can go to work or do something like mowing your lawn, than I’m pretty sure you’re an idiot even while your sober. But like Wurst said, cigarettes and booze are killing people in record numbers and you can walk down the block and drink/smoke yourself to death right now if you wanted to. Something like psychedelic mushrooms are made illegal, and they could do MUCH good for society. Bullshit.
And I know there was no mention of shrooms in this article. BUT THANKS FOR POINTING THAT OUT PAL! IF I COULD READ THE ARTICLE MYSELF, I’M SURE I WOULD HAVE NOTICED THAT! CHEERS!
Now now boys.. I can’t leave you two alone for one minute.
I agree with both of you, but I’d have to say that the trip itself is the damn side effect. And depending on who’s using them, their reality could spill some shit onto other people’s day in a lame way. It could prove someone has too fragile or psychotic a mind. I’ve seen people who like to fucking brawl on fungus, and other people wilt away in their eyes and speech, and if people weren’t around, they could’ve done something unpredictable to themself or others. Other than 2 terrible ones, I’ve only ever had great opportunities for introspection and ideas for new chapters in my life.
Amen, dude. I love mushrooms more than drinking. That’s just society dude. They’ll keep shit like cigarettes and alcohol legal but someone far more harmless like mushrooms are illegal. On the flipside, you have to be a complete idiot to get busted with a small amount of any illegal “drug”. Way to go, PRP, now I need to find some shrooms for this weekend.
Don’t go here on your silly rabbit adventure:

i can get you some wurst, if you are in the chicago land area. amazonian cubies and golden teachers.
Unfortunately not. Down here in Tejas. I have some people that’ll come through.
they ate their shrooms in silence
road trip!
Any of you in WA? Got 2 ounces cubensis on my buddy’s dirty 30 for $100.
I’ll be saving a few doses for the Tuesdays of BtBaM & Converge, Danza IIII, Behold… the Arctopus, and Neurosis. Basically, I’ll have a permagrin in October.
Well sir, Glad to see how you boast how cool you are. Now anyone that has done shrooms knows that the sideeffects stay with you for years. U could just be chillin and next thing u know your start staring at patterns and low and behold it’s start to swirl, maybe melt, etc. That’s what side effects is. Sorry if I’ve made your pussy hurt. I suggest rubbing some vagisil on your cooch if it’s still irritated. You could get them over the counter at your local CVS/Wallgreens or w/e it is they have in the middle of nowhere.
You read too many fabricated medical journal articles. I’ve done the shit more time than you’ve jerked off and I haven’t experienced a single side effect after 15 years.
I respect your service to our country. Thank you for that but don’t pretend to know anything about me either. I don’t go calling you an inbred cowboy redneck fuck that likes to jerk off long horns in heat.
And fabricated medical journal? Please leave the Alex Jones fairy tales out of this man. You’re better than that.
whoa dudes. how bout we all just call up jayofdajungle, smoke some shit, and freak out to some serart
How bout we all just agree that shrooms kick ass? Fuck the World!
And on top of that I’ve never had a mushroom flashback. It don’t work like that bro. Acid is a different story because it is much more invasive to your system. Shrooms are about as invasive as drinking a skunked beer…… more or less.
@Ballofmetal…that response was full of nonsense. for the record, i cant stand hicks and cowboys. most of them are in oklahoma anyway, but nice attempt at a ridiculous stereotype.
Wurst, you’ve tripped more times than BallsofMetal has jerked off? Idk man, sounds pretty homo for keeping track of how any times another man has jerked off.
And yes, you and Dam ur moms balls are soo edgy and hip. we get it. U guys sound like a bunch of winners.
@Zomgpapi…how the fuck are we trying to be edgy and hip? The movie “Waiting” called, they want their fucking line back. Get a new stolen line, dude. You’ve used that one before.
…says the guy with the Faceless avatar.
Faceless > 40BS. Lol
What!? U must be on shrooms son!
40BS only had one good album but that album is better than anything The Faceless has done.
Praying for you two
Being a full time musician where you quit your job and pay your bills with music earnings can take a very long time, especially pursuing death metal success. Cookie Monster is a fictional character and shouldn’t be used to create music.
@revstevo count me in, though it’s been a lot of the Glassjaw dvd and the new Circa Survive lately. Today’s my b-day bout to get done work in 30 mins and get blizzzazed
Happy Birthday, chum!
the world is a weird place, man. i’m agreeing with Wurst. been popping shrooms for 12 years now, done PLENTY of acid, never had a flashback. i’m not saying i think i’m edgy, i’m saying i think your post-trip information is wrong.
You’re right Wurst. I’ll take 40 Below Summer over The Faceless any day. Akeldama was The Faceless’ best album by far, yet still doesn’t compare to 40BS. I saw them live on one of their last tours and they were amazing. Their vocalist really impressed me. He sounded like Layne Staley on a few parts.
Dammit, I’ve never done mushrooms. I don’t know who to believe!!!
I knew those Cousino kids were bad news…
I used to live close to Salina, Kansas (where they were arrested). Let me tell you, if they were transporting meth they wouldn’t have gotten busted. The cops will hammer you for weed and shrooms around these parts, but meth heads walk around all day.
Public Service Announcement: Wurst has kept tracked and concluded that he has done shrooms more times than BallsofMetal has jerked off.
…..I’m just repeating what the gay man said that’s all.
I would laugh but you just aren’t funny, kid.
I bet I’ve eaten shrooms more times than zomgpapi has gotten laid. And I’ve gotten laid more times than I have eaten shrooms. And I’ve gotten laid while tripping on shrooms a bunch of times too just for the record. Either way you’re a tool bag.
You and Wurst are the dumbest people on PRP. You guys always post dumb shit. u have shitty taste in metal too. Why are u guys here? No one likes u guys.
Thanks bro. I was just expressing my love for mushrooms and you took it personally. Can’t help ya there. Maybe eating some shrooms yourself might do you some good.
And what the fuck do you know about what kind of music I listen to? I love Slayer. You calling them shitty? I believe you’d get yer ass kicked for sayin’ something like that around here, man.
Yeah, no one likes you guys, guys. Haha
You’ve boned on fungus? That just seems unreal to me, no one I’ve hung with has ever been opposed, but just never felt the desire, like me, while trippin’.
I fucked on acid in my late teens. I’d say it’s impossible when peaking but if you can get it up when you start to come down, I would recommend it. It’s pretty amazing. In reality, it was probably really shitty but I thought it was the greatest thing ever at the time.
I don’t fuck with any hallucinogens because I took a handful of black geltabs when I was 18 and wigged out. I had flashbacks following that trip for the better part of 5 years. I haven’t touched anything harder than herb since. I’m glad I experimented with shrooms and acid but at the same time, I’m glad my experience put an end to it before it ever became a habit. Long-term use of that shit will destroy your brain.
Haha wow zomgpapi….that had to be the most pathetic call out ive ever heard. Sounds like a poorly acted after school special focused on bullying. For one, I’ve never heard an intelligent comment from you, and damn and wurst frequently entertain most of us (haters be hatin’). Everything you have posted in this thread has exposed how fucking juvenile you are. My best advice, lay low a while…
G Scotty, that’s what I said. The dude is obviously an immature teen. If he’s in his twenties or older I really feel sorry for him.
i never gave anybody consent to speak for me, for the record. and anyway, i think you’ll find more people like Wurst than you, and I think I speak for everyone here when I say that.
Bullshit. Everyone loves Wurst.
Slayer > The Faceless
@ G Scotty, zomgpapi was being sarcastic. Had you been coming here for the last several years like he has you’d know that by now. He’s trollin on them for the reasons we all do. Cause it’s just fun.
But I do agree, as dumb as I think Wurst and Dam moms balls or w/e he calls himself are. It is entertaining. Just sucks cause they give Americans such a bad name.
All I said was that I enjoy eating mushrooms and that I love Slayer. Why does that make me a bad person?
@jpmonster90…you may come to this site but i’ve never seen you post. maybe i just tune you and your boyfriend zomgpapi out. Either way, I dont see how you came to the conclusion that Damn and I give Americans a bad name. You know nothing of us to come to such an idiotic conclusion. Hate on, little man.
Can’t we all just hit a bong?
A message we can all get baked to.
I do, every night!
MushroomHead?
Magic mushrooms are not meant for consumption by the masses. I have taken massive doses of fungus over the years. The best trip I ever had was at a Phish show in Virginia Beach in 1997. I would describe it as like that film “Inception”. I was able to fold the entire people, structures, and sounds into whatever configuration I wanted them to be in. The kids in this band were probably getting high on angel dust or heroin. Acid is what it is. You can Tab out until you can’t remember your name. The fact of the matter is all you kids should just say NO to drugs. If you do them though, buy a big beef burrito from Taco Bell. Buy an eighth of fresh caps and as little stems as possible. Mix the mushrooms into the internals of the burrito. Eat and enjoy the ride……
Phish shows are great places to consume psychedelics. Pretty good environment to cut loose. No one will give you a hard time for dancing like a mental patient.
The stems vs. caps theory is a lie, created to mess with the minds of naive 18 year old drug users – . The psilocybin is spread evenly throughout the fungus. – Just like drining OJ with it, although I believe that’s more of a personal prefferance or placebo effect. —- On the side, I really like drinking (not too much, but not 3 drinks either) on shrooms and just read … “Alcohol consumption may enhance the effects of psilocybin, because acetaldehyde, one of the primary breakdown metabolites of consumed alcohol, reacts with biogenic amines present in the body to produce MAOIs related to tetrahydroisoquinoline and β-carboline. Tobacco smokers can also experience more powerful effects with psilocybin,[45] because tobacco smoke exposure decreases levels of MAO in the brain and peripheral organs” — ” (MAOI) have been known to prolong and enhance the effects of psilocybin.) — from wikipedia
I remember the first time I saw the Grateful Dead in Ventura Beach, all these people gyrating madly to a bluesy country sound. I didn’t get it. It made me think of the silent whistles only a dog can hear. But by the third day I was gyrating madly.
I See Bars
” Oh squiggly line in front of my eye, why are you there?” sorry had to…the side effects make me realize they are there. Not actually, I have seen them since I was in grade school. Oh yeah that was a Family Guy quote…sorry
Mushrooms effect the language part of your brain, much so.
Hey, it could be worse. At least they didn’t conspire to rape a 1 year old.
I bet he sees stars. Am I right???????
