But if it helps with the performance, who cares?[/quote]

Helps? I think it just makes u think u play better.

hmmmm.. i think this is rather interesting. when you think you play better, you actually may put on a much better visual delivery of your music.

i mean, if we're ripping thru solos but are standing so still because there's no performance involved, the casual punter wouldn't understand a thing because music's not a language they understand and they just like the sound of it. like, maybe we watch anime and japanese shows because we like the way it sounds, but have no idea what was being said if it weren't for subtitles.

so the other point is that, its usually just us, the musos who get pretty uptight about the way a guy or girl plays a piece of music that maybe sometimes we forget to have fun at playing at our own gigs, or watching other people play

it gets a whole lot more fun when you're performing while high or tipsy.. your stage antics get that little bit more wild (or a LOT).. drunk is at the point where you don't know what the tuck is going on i feel..

haha! :lol: absolutely right!!! u give a better performance!!! cuz u dont really care what the audience thinks... but if u're piss drunk, u'll just end up sitting against the bass drum wanking away on your guitar... :lol:

 

[turtlemuscle]

hahaa... yah, i guess it's true. just don't play off note... then again, something nice might come out of it.

2 bands ive seen played drunk & live , rocking down the stage will be

Mltg Snow & Kaliyuga.

:wink:

Yeah, i've seen one band with their lead vocalist drunk, but i forgot ah.. i think it was T.B.K, kickass performance and got the whole place moshing although the vocalist almost announced the same song twice..

 

[Horrorflicked]

get high.. but not drunk!!
that's my advice..
when high.. you'll have MORE BALLS..
and instead of thinkin so much about your own image up on stage..
you'll feel FREE... and OPEN to groove and swing to the music..
that'll be one helluva show :wink:
