AdamsGod	Date: December 6, 2004 @ 8:38 PM OK.. so, i hope i'm not pushing any wrong buttons by asking this.. does anyone record vocals stoned? like.. smoke up a bit, and just go on for hours? just wondering.. cuz i do, i meen sometimes, it just gives you this weird push..or pull.. i think. oh well.
YaBoyDrew	Date: February 14, 2005 @ 1:09 PM i have the hardest tyme recording after i stone. i prefer to blaze after a song iz complete, celebration style
ryanwilliams	Date: February 14, 2005 @ 4:23 PM I haven't done it in months (smoked) but I actually have no problem singing stoned. it really has no effect on my singing. I feel a tad bit more relaxed, and sometimes I can 'get into' a song more--i can sort of ride the vibe of the tune, but sober or stoned, it makes no difference.
GTLive	Date: February 15, 2005 @ 3:02 AM I am not sure if I like to record my stuff when high, or to blaze celebration style afterwards. Such indecision. So I do both. I have a song section called "Stoners Head Shop" and all of those tunes were heavilly researched.
-dp-	Date: February 15, 2005 @ 11:38 AM I find my production gets alot more crazy and original if I have a smoke first plus I enjoy it alot more. I also find listening to a finished tune when high creates an enormous sence of well being and happiness.
sarahmicol	Date: June 9, 2005 @ 9:36 AM I happened to sing when I was stoned and someone recorded me.... I was soooo out of tune that I quit both smoking weed and drinking!
jd2theog	Date: October 3, 2005 @ 4:58 AM ^ yes its a great thing to do.
GTOriginal	Date: October 3, 2005 @ 3:38 PM Uhhh I forget.
shadowself	Date: October 3, 2005 @ 3:48 PM 99% of the time, yes.
GeneHilbert	Date: October 3, 2005 @ 4:44 PM No - because the mic always ends up covered with Oreo crumbs.... But really.... No....... I'm way to focused and I need to get things done and in the best recording takes possible....... it's OK for fucking around and who knows you might get lucky, or compositionally just to wander around a bit....... but never for serious session work. However - later if I have really good takes recorded and I want to screw around and experiment, throw caution to the wind - then yes...... but if you are tied to a clock and need to get it done – be well rehearsed – and save the shit 'til later.....
K3VIN	Date: October 3, 2005 @ 6:02 PM For freestyles, alcohol and weed makes maximum comedic value when mixed in large doses

zedsalt	Date: October 4, 2005 @ 1:04 PM For a lot of people, it's a great shortcut to a place they can get to without it. That's the only danger I see- the idea of growing to depend on it to get you there.
woodhead	Date: October 7, 2005 @ 6:34 PM I use it for working on new material, mixing, guitar what ever, I feel it helps the creative bit when ever in a rut.
SimonWaldram	Date: October 7, 2005 @ 6:58 PM I record myself talking in my sleep, then set the ramblings to music.
johnyjordan	Date: November 5, 2005 @ 2:05 PM Smoking opens up my production abilities and its normally for the better. However, I can not sing while I'm high. I get too high and really lose control. My body does not dispose of the THC so well. I trip out way too hard. I've basically stopped smoking because of that reason. I rather keep a sober state-of-mind while I record. I have a friend that likes to drink when he records guitar. He does an excellent job, it just takes him all night because he can get sloppy at times.

TonyV	Date: November 6, 2005 @ 8:00 PM I hate the sound of my own voice anyway. It's less irritating after a nicely rolled doob.
K3VIN	Date: November 6, 2005 @ 10:15 PM dude.. i feel the same way.. i wont rap in front of my friends to record.. unless im really desperate.. but after a nice doob ill freestyle for 6 minutes.. and after another one and lets say 10+ shots of alcohol ill pull a 25 minute freestyle my ass

celtaidd	Date: November 12, 2005 @ 9:05 PM Well I'm insulted by the question Icant sing without an orchesral accompnament or a choir, or a rugby game or any other excuse I can, or cant think of
DJRunaway	Date: December 9, 2005 @ 10:44 AM Yup, I do I live in Holland and weed is legal here (Yer, all bow down and drool!!!) and I mostly record vocals when I'm stoned. I love making music in general when I'm stoned, but vocals always work out pretty nice when I'm stoned !
