How does alcohol affect your apreciation of music?

Seems to me like a glass of wine would give you a good start to your listening experience but if spilled on a speaker could really ruin the finish, Jeff

Words of wisdom from Grandpaw

So generally the consensus is that alcohol dulls the senses somewhat; and that this is not necessarily a bad thing. But what about pairing certain beverages with certain types of music. For example, one would probably not listen to Rob Zombie with a chardonay nor Enya with Jack Daniels. Or maybe one would, I don't know. What are some pairings that seem to work well?

Celine Dion and Witch Hazel?

Frank Sinatra and a couple of cold Miller High Life on a summer's eve.

Who ever coined the phrase "sex, drugs/alcohol & Rock-n-Roll" wasn't lying. Of course, with the right crowd the hops went down pretty good with Hank Jr. Dwight , David Alan Cole etc. I remember an occasion where I was overly engrossed in the lights of a Rush video after some one gave me this little tiny piece of paper to eat. Actually every video after that point seemed extremely vivid.... hmmm.... maybe that was a proto type of HD.

I've licked enough paper, liquid, powder, and goo in my life to start my own convention at a Holiday Inn, and I'm only talking about lickin'.
My old ol' thing used to be coke and Billy Holiday.Woooooooooo I dont think anything in life can produce sound that bright high frequency.
I'll never walk that path again. I still love Ms. H.

jra, just out of curiosity, what would you drink to that (that is, before it breaks the glass)? And will those grados really capture it all? Yeah, kind of funny how you just found that...

:D :D :D

Of course not so much with the kids or when I'm auditioning new equipment, but there is something to be said for how it enhances the experience. So what's your prefered beverage/music combination?

When getting hammered in college, I once came to and had a fat chick in bed with me. Now I'm more afraid I'll wake up with a Neil Diamond box set in my CD case.
