I've always thought those goggles that help you have lucid dreams were cool, but I've never actually attempted making or using them.

I would be severely disappointed if all I saw was an image of "hosss prancing in the clouds." Your report better be good, or I'm not wasting my money on ping-pong balls.

I have heard about this, but never have had the time lack of laziness to actually try it.

Looking forward to your results!

I always have white noise on and something covering my eyes when I'm trying to fall asleep and I have never had hallucinations.

I have, but I call them dreams.

okay

so

no visual hallucinations

but I heard a tune in the static...the same part would repeat each time, and every few times a bit would be added to the end.

Ok, so a lot of trouble just to hear some made up music.
