Been uploading old tracks I recorded ages ago and hopefully some new noodles here.
Although I'm very suspicious of how the cans are all lined up perfectly so you can see the logo - early placement marketing perhaps?
My feedback thread is here.
IIRC there was a lot of relief when Stevie Ray Vaughan switched from alcohol to coke onstage, well until they realised it contained cocaine he had dissolved into it. If I also RC it then recrystallizes in your stomach and rips your stomach lining.
Anyway...just as per some of the above comments I'm struggling to think of many other complex tasks where it's seen as acceptable to have alcohol whilst carrying them out. Being the next Eric Clapton from your sofa is fine, trying to do it in front of a crowd less so. I know that people on here do drink and play but I'd suggest their playing is fine despite the alcohol because they are sufficiently skilled/ rehearsed and it's not improved by it. I could probably drive home safely tonight from work after a couple of pints because I've done it many, many times before but it wouldn't make me a safer or better driver - I'd make it home despite the alcohol in my system.
I got crippled by stage nerves but at no point did I think that would be improved by a developing headache and the need for a piss.
Sharing the incident on an internet forum is often the only way to get over things. I find anyway!
Maybe I didn't make myself clear, it's a secret guilt and shame I shall carry to my grave - apart from the dozens of people who witnessed my disgraceful behaviour.
Did you start a fight with Lee Anderton and lose?
As well as a player's ability, it may also be affected by their capacity to drink. Prior to his health scare, I've seen Zakk Wylde drinking throughout gigs with no discernible affect on his playing, whereas I've seen a player in another well known metal band gradually deteriorating in timing and fluidity as the gig progressed.
