Hi All, .... you should of course be able to play it completely drunk. ... Stay tuned! Whilst knowing a piece so well that you don't have to think about it because it is engrained in to your muscle memory is good this isn't such a good idea. You are more likely to develop bad muscle routines if you are inebriated yet not be aware of the mistakes. I don't think anyone is advocating drinking to excess but from the forum posting guidelines as a gentle reminder: 7. Keep it Legal. Posts should not refer to illegal activities such as drug use, illegal file sharing, pirating of software etc. For a discussion of why GMC disallows some of these activities see this thread. Whilst not illegal, GMC also does not condone excessive alcohol consumption and will edit or remove posts that encourage or glorify it.

Stevie Ray Vaughan was a raging alcoholic - something tells me his 'muscle memory' was fine. Perhaps you missed the 'more likely' part of my comment Fatb0t? Regardless of his being a 'raging alcoholic' it still is not a good enough reason to advocate alcohol abuse. See the forum posting guidelines I inserted and that you have quoted above. -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.

Are you accusing me of advocating alcohol abuse? No Alen - as I said: 'I don't think anyone is advocating drinking to excess but from the forum posting guidelines as a gentle reminder...'. I am reminding all of the forum guidelines because the thread, due to the quote, has a potential to transgress them. That is part of my role as a member of the moderating team.

Direct statement like "player needs to be 5 times better off stage then on stage" is a very subjective opinion. In general player must be confident in what he is playing on stage, and that comes through experience. Experienced professional players can and sometimes have to come on the stage with little preparations, sometimes just reading straight out of the sheet of music. Of course, serious preparation is very important, specially for serious performances, and usually the biggest amount of work that a guitar player does is before, not on a gig.
Using alcohol to determine if you are capable of playing something on stage is something that is very untrue, and not recommended, cause you simply can't prepare yourself or do serious work like that. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE
