Have drugs ever had a significant impact on your listening habits?

weed is for doing taxes and going to the supermarket

Yes, many times. Mostly weed, alcohol (particularly at live music events), acid only once and by complete accident.

Probably my two favorite concert experiences were my wife and I being super drunk at a Hold Steady show and the covered Lawyers, Guns and Money as an encore and a Wild Flag show where they covered Television's See No Evil as an encore. Both of these were in Portland prior to having a kid and feel like two lifetimes ago.

Weed was usually very positive though I remember listening to Fugazi's Repeater and just getting way into the sound and production of it all then feeling really guilty that Ian Mackaye would be disappointed in me for sitting around and smoking dope because I knew that I couldn't cope.

Jazz really is the best music to listen to stoned. The only time I really miss weed is when I am listening to a jazz record and realizing how much 420 would enhance the experience

Same. Or reggae. Or prog. W33d really makes all music sound better to me, even the garage punk noted above, but obviously the more sonic depth to the performance/recording the more perceptions there are to be experienced.

As with zacata, my listening has shifted from mostly harder edged music towards predominantly jazz, psych, dub etc. But no pot involved in the transition.

I never really appreciated "Music for Airports" until I listened to it stoned at 4:00 am.

this thread is not good for me.
makes me want to swap my love of red wine for weed.
that said, i have only ever had one weed-n-music experience.
and it was not that great ...
basically, reading festival 1990 - i was there to see tackhead as part of the sunday afternoon lineup.
just before they came on stage a friend of mine handed me a spliff maxed out with homegrown.
took a drag and then tried to walk nearer to the where the action was.
yeah.
to say i did not move from that spot and get into the tackhead excess would be an understatement.

I am probably more into audio equipment than the avg ilxor, but good weed is the best tweak available.
