I normally don't drink but if someone else is buying and I am not driving I make an acception....
Last night I was playing in my cover gig and for the 4th set we tune to Eb.... I was bit loaded as the club owners wife insisted on buying the band shots.... We finish the 3rd set with Shine in Drop D, about to take our break,, the owner comes up and says it's 1:20 keep playing so I quickly tune to Eb...we got to play Sex is on Fire and I know I totally out of tune... I can't figure out why as I just tuned up and why am I sharp by 1 step.
Drunk me tunes up with the hipshot dropped and then engages before we play and I didn't figure it out until after that song....

It wasn't the first time I had a room spinning while Magotbrain was playing....
