Critical listening and altered states

@millercarbon

I really want to know Mikelavigne is where oh where can I get me some of that Angel’s Envy???

i’ve not purchased any Angel’s Envy for a few years, and had to get those ’Finished Rye’ versions you seemed to like, on line a few years back.

not looked for it lately. my go-to is Lagavulin to be honest.

i do like my bottled water as the main thing for listening. a sniff, then a sip of a single malt can set the mood from time to time....but only a sip. 

Lagavulin, eh?  https://youtu.be/frbsZ8TGsX8

"Drugs, gamblin’, sex, traveling, anything that is a problem in someone else’s life, is a problem in everyone’s life.. EXCEPT the person in denial.."

All that weed is clouding your sense of reality old boy.

Thanks for confirming what I said. So with you it’s, gambling, traveling or drugs (god forbid a sex nut (one of the worst besides gamblers).

I was a shop steward for many years. The worst thing was telling a lady why her husband was being arrested at WORK for stealing thousands of gallons of fuel behind GAMBELING. One of several I knew. This guy even sold the tire chains off the rig in Reno and couldn't leave unless he was chained up.. THAT'S what started the whole 4 year sentence, in Quentin. He got violent with the cops.. I don't think he would have done time, if not for that stupid screw up.. 4 years...

The guy I was just working for squandered, millions from a company and lost a franchise behind TRAVELING, to nowhere just to travel. LOOK at a picture for god sakes..

Weed.. it is a gift from my forefather along with tobacco to the western world from the native folks that were here before. The other side of my lineage brought booze to the Americas.. oh yes.. I stay away from it all together.. No Beer, No Wine, no Strong drink.. My green eyed black Irish father taught me that. Quite the war hero, quite the drunk. I loved HIM not his drinkin’.. I’m surprised my sweet mother didn’t light the bed on fire..

Confused? NO!!

Informed, yes. AND when you find and OLD boy you know what to do with HIM don’t you..

I think I’ll get altered AGAIN and go feed the chickens.. Water melon eatin’ chickens..

I find my enjoyment of music, the emotional content of the music, the power, subtlety and beauty of the music, is considerably enhanced by the occasional application of a little grandpa weed (low TCH, high CBD).
Am I listening more critically or more accurately? Who cares? The point is to create a more emotional reaction to the music in that moment.
