| I noticed I can't mix worth . That is unless I have a little caffeine in my system. After I take in a red bull or two, I seemingly don't f-up at all. Others have seen me on caffeine and w/out, and they agree. Does anyone else suffer from this affliction? |

| Well I always mix better when I have something to take the edge off (weed, a couple beers, other :crazy: ). Caffeine doesn't really do much for me anyway since I'm kind of addicted to it and have to have it everyday to prevent headaches. But anyway, I hear what you're saying man. |

| Beer usually does not improve my mixing skills... Even worse, it makes it sound even worse than without the beers :toothless |

| Mixing stoned is freaking impossible. My friend made a tape of himself spinning smacked out of his mind. Let it be known that the entire tape sounded like a double bass pedal for a drum kit. |

| if possible i always try and spin with a red bull in hand. i dont know if it makes my mixes better but it definitely gets me going and i get all hyped up and dance like a little fool in the booth. |

I can mix fine high, but not when I am stoned. I just listen to the beats after putting a new record down and I think, "wow, there are like two beats and they arn't matching... um... what happens if I do this? Ohh jeez that made it worse... um how about this... no, damn... ug. I'll just listen to that PvD liveset" |

| Never drink and mix at the same time, the alcohol makes a big muscle in your ear relax wich normally holds about 20 db out of the ear. |
