Have you actually tried it and done a proper effort to use it for serious jamming/improvising? Cause sounds very much like the effect of alcohol and not hashish your are describing there to me.

40hz Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Normally two small bottles of beer. One before to loosen me up, and one in the break between sets. No more - no less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, tried it, sounds great at the time, not so great afterwards. i don't know about alcohol, never did that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeresaFR Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 I don't really drink - by which I mean, I might have a shot of something sweet at Yule but that's it - and I never touch what might be called "substances" in certain circles. I don't even need caffeine, in fact, caffeine's a bad call for me, not least because my adrenaline's likely to be through the roof before going on stage.

dclaassen Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Remembering the early ‘80’s and a local band who would drop acid before a gig. The results were always less than optimal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DGBass Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Oddly enough I always have snacks ready to consume during breaks and in between sets at a gig. Last weekend it was raisin & biscuit flavour Yorkie. Yum. As far as drinks go, it has to be non alcohoholic and non fizzy. Staying hydrated is my doping for bass playing nowadays. Bars don't seem to offer free drinks as much as they once did anyway and i'm always driving too. Was just thinking it's also been a very long time since I was in a band that had a rider provided so the temptation to drink beer in a dressing room before a gig hasn't presented itself. That's probably a good thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
