Susan Sarandon led a very belated funeral procession for her dear friend, the 'godfather of LSD' Timothy Leary, at Burning Man on Saturday.
Clutching his ashes on the march into a makeshift church, the 67-year-old actress - who was wearing a bridal gown - said she had wanted to lay Leary to rest where he would be surrounded by revelers who had taken the psychedelic drug to honor his memory.
'I think he'd be so happy,' Sarandon said of Leary, who died and was cremated in 1996. 'I think he would have loved the chaos. He would have loved it. And all these people honoring him with LSD.'
Sarandon led a march to bring his ashes into the 'church', which was built as an art installation at the festival, according to USA Today.
The church was set alight on Saturday after the Burning Man statue was burned.

March 15, 2011: Stepmom actress and politically liberal activist Susan Sarandon joined Wisconsin union protesters Saturday to rally against Gov. Scott Walker’s union bill.
“This is a very, very important fight, and it’s just so blatant and so obvious and it has to be dealt with now and I think that’s why it resonates,” Sarandon told The Nation representative John Nichols. “I know there are rallies being held all over the United States in solidarity too and we can’t forget that, but I just wanted to come in person to say thank you for everyone’s work in the past and for what they’re doing now.” 
“It’s a great opportunity that this idiot, uh, Walker has given us, to remember our strength and to remember that we are the many and they are the few,” Sarandon said. “Even though they have the wealth, we have something which is as important if not more important, and so I came just to say thank you and to remind them that we are watching, even if the media hasn’t been on top of it as much as they should have.” .....

Do you think that Susan knows that Timothy Leary’s work was sponsored and supported by the CIA?
Sick.
She should have snorted his ashes and saved everyone the trouble of listening to her brain shrivel every time she opens her mouth.
LOL. Yep. Leary and Ken Kesey’s Merry Pranksters, too.
And according to the link, ol’ Burning Man festival is chock full of FBI spooks.
I had thought that Timothy Leary’s ashes had gone up on a Celestis rocket, along with those of Gene Roddenberry and Gerard K. O’Neill. He must have left some behind.
So, in other words, another Soros funded project, politically motivated.
I’d heard vague mention of this, but somehow got the idea it was rather primitive, like Woodstock with a totem pole.
Whoa. Pictures at the link show a huge, elaborately constructed carnival. Too expensive to be spontaneous.
From the linked source:
“Most of Leary’s ashes were sent into outer space in 1997, but Sarandon kept some. The ‘funeral’ comes shortly after Sarandon gushed about Leary in an interview with the Daily Beast.”
What a loony toon! What is the wedding gown supposed to symbolize? Is she marrying the shade of Timothy Leary?
Is that the Burning Man statue? It looks like Cthulu. Too bad they don’t have a proper Wicker Man with druidic sacrifices.../sarc
I’m 67, & I don’t think a 67 year old Hollywood nutcake should be showing her legs in public or be wearing bridal white.
Burning Man is no longer just an intergenerational hippie confab in the desert. There’s serious money in play.
“Turn on, Tune in, Drop out”
No, that is some Indian god. Burning Man is more like a tall statue of a man.
You are correct, that is the “church” where Sarandan placed Leary’s ashes to be burned.
You never answered my question from a couple of days ago.
If Trump is the GOP nominee will you support him?
You win a kitten!
It’s a shame that they waited and torch the “church” only after the skank had vacated it.
