What drugs do you use to enhance your listening experience?


In this post let's consider alcohol, nicotine, and coffee drugs, as they are, along with the usual suspects that can get you arrested in most US states and beheaded in Saudi Arabia. I live in Victoria, Canada, which has more marijuana shops than Starbucks, and we have tons of Starbucks. In 10 minutes, I can walk from my house to four dispensaries, which will sell to anyone over 18. OK, enough bragging, For me, a puff, and just one puff (I don't like getting stoned) can be the best tweak ever. A glass of wine is also a fine compliment. Too much alcohol will increase my enjoyment (because I'm drunk) but put Phil Spector in the room (wall of sound and loss of the stuff I value in my system, such as clarity).

I just opened a bottle of pinot noir. I’m heading down to the listening cave to enjoy the first half of the Decca Gotterdammerung. 

I don’t need no steenkin drugs. I don’t want no steenkin drugs. I don’t need no steenkin smoke. That stuff just steenks.

dude, put down the hash pipe....and just listen to the music.  you'll hear better and more of what's there without being stoned.   drugs are for losers.  even prescription drugs are bad, they are even worse than street drugs in some ways.  so what if there's pot shops all over ??? there's bars all over too but wtf wants to be a freaking alcoholic and be an addict.  make no mistake, pot is a gateway drug that eventually makes users try other drugs.  you can never hear the music as good as when you are stone cold sober.
