Before the concert in Amsterdam, the Airplane purchased a slab of Lebanese Gold hashish, which they offered to Morrison to nibble. Greedily, he ate a huge chunk. Ray Manzarek remembers him stumbling on stage during the Airplane’s set. “Jim started singing with Grace and hugging her. Then he danced off the stage, went back into the dressing room and passed out.”
Slick chuckles. “I liked Jim. Most women did. He was gorgeous, but he was so screwy – half the time you couldn’t talk to him. He used himself as a human guinea pig, see how far you can push the human brain. I remember coming back from an Airplane gig in 1967 and going to the Tropicana Motel with Kantner, and Morrison was in the hallway, goofy on acid, stark naked and barking like a dog. Paul just stepped over him and went into his room.”
We need some old hippy faggot to figure this out: You can't eat pot (and have it become psychoactive); i thas to be solubized (word?) in fat to work that way. I am not aware of any method of making hash that would make it an edible high but I could be wrong. Also if he got all fucked up just from hash I would be surprised
Another tale that Grace told about being in Amsterdam in the 68 Europe tour, people would hand them pills and drugs, and most of the people would say, "Thanks!" and put them in their pocket for later. Jim, however, would take it immediately. Reds, blues, uppers, downers, Ludes, acid, shrooms, whatever they handed him, he took it right there on the street.

That Jim didn't like drugs is crazy talk.
