what to do when you're still amped from a gig

Post by khybot » Wed Dec 28, 2011 8:06 pm

Just curious about what people do after a performance and you're all high on adrenaline. Do you try to wind down and get some sleep or just party all night?

I've been starting to play out and noticed that I'm totally wired after a show and can't seem to get to sleep or do anything productive and just stay up until early the next morning. Same thing happens on nights when I work at my job in a fast paced restaurant environment. I usually spend the next day recovering because I'm so tired (which isn't such a bad thing).

Mix relaxed tunes, preferably while smoking with some friends.

When I play with my band I always come off the stage shaking from adrenaline, but that usually fades after a few more drinks during the other bands, then loading and unloading everything. By the time I get home I'm ready to pass out haha

Though I value and respect your opinion about this man's signature, I tend to completely loathe and detest everything about this man's signature, and anything with a minute relation to it.

Haha I value and respect you stating your opinions in such a way, I never said I agreed with what he was saying, but I do like how he went about it and the Porter Robinson quote is funny - of course dubstep was fun before he and the rest of the OWSLA records crew got their hands on it, but he's a fucking freshman in college in America and he's touring with all of the brosteppers, that's all he hears and thinks about, that's what he's goin to support! No hate for him.
