I don't use effects either. They open the door to noise and lack of punch, and then you need more effects to counter those.

yeah. massive tool cunts.

He really didn't do a search.

[Joe Gress]

Either that or he really if that confused. I've been confused like that before. Hell at 8am theory class I would have killed the man who doubted my claim that an A was the same note as a Bb. Boy I felt stupid (and waaaaaaaaay to stoned/hungover to be in class) that morning.

[behndy]

wait...... it's not?

[Joe Gress]

A case of PBR, three bowls, and a fifth of Burnetts and it is

[behndy]

i stopped drinking when i turned legal. sorta lost it's appeal after that. so i have never experienced the wonder of the PBR hangover. but according to all my cheap ass friends that love them some $1 PBR NIGHHHHHHHTS!!!! it's well worth it.

and your bunny avatar scares me a bit.

Nothin' like a case of PBR and a 40 sack to destroy your musical abilities.

Good times.

In your head you were right and that is all that matters!

From an improvisational standpoint,...I'm usually better (or at least I perceive that I'm better) when I'm inebriated.

Now if I'm trying to nail changes and be perfect in form for arranged parts? Not so much.

I jam best when I'm relaxed, so smoke me out and we could jam for hours. We jammed a whole record's worth of material (almost completely cohesive except when we shook all the drinks off the walls and had to clean up) on shrooms. That was legit.

Beer makes it harder for me to concentrate on playing, though.

[behndy]

i've only played one time live when smoked up. didn't really dig it. but i never really got into green that much. i LOVED me some hallucinogenics when i was young enough not to have any responsibilities that messed up the trip. but never dug playing altered. i have a hard enough time staying on when i'm sober.

i DID accidentally get doused with a good 5 or 6 doses worth of liquid acid before a wharehouse gig one time though. thank GOOGILY that i'd done a buncha acid before that. when it started to come on a song into the set i was like, "huh. i'm on acid." didn't find out till later that my friend that was selling it on sugar cubes got bumped and spilled a bunch on me when i was passing by. messy.

but fo phsow. do what works for you. i'm just too wobbly to introduce extra stuff into the mix.

[Joe Gress]

High? Hell no, I'm a giggling blubbering idiot. A beer or three before playing? Feels great, pretty relaxed and ready to roll. Before an orchestra concert or wind ensemble? Five or so shots and I'll slay every last one. It doesn't help any when the conductor is fairly toasted himself.

Oh, and since my supporting membership ran out and I'm to poor to pay, I now can haz melvins doggie here.
