Sounds to me like you need practice on new material, showmanship, and variety more than pot. If you have to smoke to change it up on stage then musically you aren't making it. As the owner, after a year of the same eight songs, I'm looking for a new band.
You have obviously never been in an original touring band. We get a half hour set in the smallist, shittiest, dirt hole clubs the northeast has to offer. We play the songs off the record, because the goal is to actually try and sell a couple of them. So yeah, it can get a bit repetative. Im sure the Stones aren't exactly jumping out of their shorts when they play Satisfaction for the millionth time. But its what you do, you play what you got. Sorry if it offends you that we partike in recreational drugs, but we are a rock n roll band not a church choir. I am giving you the reality. We have played with dozens, maybe hundreds, of other bands and its the same for almost all of them. We all load in hours before the show and then hang out waiting to go on. During that time we do a variety of different things. Sometimes we smoke a joint, sometimes we dont. My point is, it really doesnt make that much of a difference to me. Unless somebody is falling down drunk I dont notice much of a difference between other members being stoned or not. Just my $.02.
