Actually, they all belong to the same categorization, which is popular music.

Classical music is a subcategorization that includes a variety of gernes that are very much in common, so there it is the term for useful porpuses and should not to be confused with the classical period.

Actually, yes. And that is referred as popular music.

Some typos can be fascinating. Ultrasonic music for useful porpoises seems worth exploring. Of course, at the moment dog whistles are the only instrument but surely electronics can improve on that.

Dave always struck me as being an angrier version of celebrity chef Jamie Oliver, with less cooking.

I couldn't imagine seeing him in the sky but I could imagine seeing him at the bottom of a bottle of Blackhaus or Jagermeister (if you mixed the two I might even see him sooner).

I could imagine seeing it (calling "god" a "him" is a little plebeian, don't you think?) at the bottom of the 10th cup of psychedelic mushroom tea.

The concept of an old man with a big white robe and beard sitting on a golden thrown looking down from the sky is quite plebeian as well - might as well just roll with the thread.

As for your mushroom tea experiment, I think you should be ok as long as your babysitter doesn't let you play with sharp objects or stick your head in boiling water. With a good baby sitter you won't see him, bad babysitter who lets you drink Lysol or play in traffic - good chance you'll see him (that's more where I was going with it).

I'm a well-behaved psychonaut and do not require a sitter.

With 10 cups? You might need to start talking to different people IRL.
