Though my band rehearses at night, so on those nights I don't get home until midnight.

I mean, I'm tired all the time but that's a small price to pay for creativity. Sleep deprivation causes creates juices to go crazy and seriously it works. Just stay up for like 48 hours and you will start to think of crazy sh*t.
 
BUT NEVER GO PAST 84 hours. That's 3 and a half days. Don't. Do. It.

Oh god what happens??

Hallucinations, deep dark hallucinations. You will start to talk to people that aren't there. You will hear music in your head, which is a great thing but not when you want it to stop and it wont. It overloads your brain and you literally hit a point of mental insanity that can only be cured with sleep. Our bodies are not meant for that. 84 hours is the longest I have stayed up but once I hit a certain point I couldn't shake the idea that I was living vicariously and only watching a vision of my life through my own eyes and I had already died.
 
 
UNLESS taht sounds fun to you.

Haha- It's pretty difficult- My no sleep supplies were expensive. It included 10 starbucks frappacinos. But I also used to have insane insomnia and would skip sleeping like 2 nights a week. (This is without drugs mind you.) haha
 
But yea I guess it's pretty metal.

They say Mike Patton did no drugs except caffiene and would do crazy sleep deprivation creative experiments. He inspired me. :)

It would be totally stupid for me to try something like that.  But then I'm not Patton or Smurph.

^Yea- haha- kinda traumatizing when you get down to it- and you can get all weird and creative after only 36 hours so there's no need to do that. I also was watching a download of this TV show from England where they did a reality to see who could stay up the longest and people started going mentally insane after a period of time. IT WAS HILARIOUS. It was called Shattered- this is from wikipedia about the contestants and what each of them did.
 
Adverse reaction

Though research has gone into the effects of sleep deprivation nobody knew exactly what to expect. Hallucinations and odd behaviour were evident quite quickly in some contestants. Numerous contestants suffered from both hypnagogia and hypnopompia (both essentially dreaming while awake, normally just prior to or after sleep).

  • Chris believed himself to be the Prime Minister of Australia and also thought he was on the set for the popular Australian soap Neighbours.
  • Jimmy got angry when the others refused to put on their Japanese armour and play with an imaginary ball
  • Dean and Jonathan were convinced their clothes had been stolen
  • Clare S thought she was in a tube station
  • Dean nearly fell over as he started to succumb to sleep while still standing

After 75 hours Lucy walked out, having talked to the psychiatrist and deciding that she could no longer continue. Chris, Dean and Jimmy were the only contestants to have an illegal sleep and they only did it once each.

I just hallucinated that everything around me disappeared while I was blinking and was replaced with an exact replica.

The only thing I've ever experience from not sleeping is being sleepy.
