tODAY I LISTENED TO bRAIN dRAIN BY THE rAMONES AND IT IS DEFINITELY ONE OF THEIR LESSER ALBUMS BUT I HAD FORGOTTEN HOW MADDENINGLY HOOKY AND DIRTY AND FUNNY IT IS, AND HOW FUCKING LOUD THOSE DRUMS ARE HOLY FUCK I love this band
I love Zero Zero UFO.
Great song.
Also, would be it crazy of me to state pet semetery is one of my favorite ramones songs?
Obviously, for most of us, our tastes begin to form before we start getting into all that stuff. But I just wonder, if I smoked weed, would I get home and reach for ... I don't know... Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin more often than Tom Waits? In one of the Zep tournament threads someone mentioned how great a specific album is to get high to. I wonder if they didn't get high, if they'd still like that record as much? Does the weed affect the mood or mindset enough to affect musical taste in those instances?
Maybe pot would steer you to Snoop Dogg, Cypress Hill, etc...? I think I'd reach for whatever I was in the mood for wether I got high, or not. I tend to be more involved in listening when I am high, for sure. Definitely get more into it and I tend to pick up on things I've missed in the past. If you're the type who likes to veg out after smoking, then maybe Pink Floyd et al would be your go to? I'd just as soon listen to some three chord punk as I would psychedelic mood-scape.
I tend to find that when I drink, I get way more emotionally invested in my art. I think what I'm drinking (and how much) can change what I chose to reach for.

Interesting. I'm totally with you on getting more emotionally invested in art when drink and/or smoke. I don't think I've noticed it changing what I chose to reach for. Maybe because I'm drunk and high?

Where do you tend to go when you drink?
There are a few factors at play for me here. How was my day? What mood am i in and how does that impact how the alcohol affects me. Then...what do i reach for?
Some days im happy as a clam and just want to drinka nd have a good time and perhaps ill turn to some dirty Minneapolis Rock N roll to fuel that...
Other nights, depending on situation, i may need my Tom Waits, or an acoustic Neil.

Where do you tend to go when you drink?
It depends on what I'm drinking and how far in I am. And sometimes on the time of year. For example, I always want to listen to Tom Waits. But if it's warmer outside and I'm having a whiskey or two, I might go with Mule Variations. But if I'm drinking gin, I'm more apt to grab Blue Valentine or Swordfishtrombones. Or if it's beer, maybe I'll do Heart of Saturday Night.
Things like that.
But beyond that, I tend to get really into country/bluegrass/blues and more southern jams when I'm drinking whiskey. And I tend to get more upbeat, poppy or electronic if I'm drinking gin. Beer tends to be old favorites. Again, that's all generalized but I feel like there's probably a real trend/pattern if I sat down and tracked it over a long period of time.
Oh, I find I'm more interested in new music, or I'm more open to exploring things if I'm slowing drinking beer. Once I get into full drunk, no stars mode, I really want stuff I know by heart and can sing or weep to.

This is oddly specific.
I wasn't trying to be a dick. It's just foreign to me. Tonight, I will drink good beer and see where it leads me.

I didn't think you were being a dick at all. I thought maybe you were making a joke that I just didn't get.
