i agree, but its more like 6 or 7 beers :oops:

playing guitar drunk is my favorite thing to do ever. when i get to like 8 beers i start getting sloppy and usually get distracted by something like girls or a beer-related game, or peeing

I have never had a drink or smoked the reefer in my life.

I hate drinking myself.

I've performed stoned, though. It usually depends on whether or not I'm in the mood to smoke at any given time, and the chance opportunity of having a show after that. It's never something I plan on doing.

Same here, and I plan on never being drunk or high my whole life.

I hate the taste of alcohol, and the smell of pot makes me sick and gives me a headache. Also, my anti-depressants, if mixed with alcohol or pot it could be dangerous and life threatening. Then, alcoholism runs in my family.

So, I will be alcohol and marajunia free my whole life.

Depends on how much so. With the right amount, you can do all kinds of crazy shit becasue you feel no pain, but too much and you reflexes go to hell. I played SMTS-->ASTB-->Too Much drunk and it sounded all the better, but I drank some more and played sweet home alabama and it sounded like a constipated donkey.

I suppose music has been regarded as it's own drug, I still very much enjoy the sounds of a slow solo near the base of the neck of the guitar, maybe with a little delay - transported I be (Yoda voice).

My poison varies, but of late it's the Jack. Jack Daniels is my cup o' courage indeed. Threre are times I've played in front of folks and I thought I might have been good, but really I was most assuredly not! Of course when I am bombed at home, well that's different, sometimes I get ideas being in a different frame of mind.
