Who wants to stay within reality? Isn't it more fun to pursue intoxication? When mere micro grams of a "controlled substance" can chemically alter our perception for a few joyful hours, why would anyone want to play it straight.
Well, for an alternate opinion just take a look at the graphic (from Mad TV) for Bogus Slogan Poster #73. Our little fella, has fallen on hard times. In fact he is upside down dead - not that he could realize the state he is in. But he didn't get to wake up the next morning with a hangover. He got the Big Sleep.
So when you go to a Bogus Slogan concert, treat your drugs with the respect they deserve.

Drools Palace was the creation of Bay Area promoter, Willy Lee Meyer. Converting a vacant bay side warehouse (once used for the storage of fruit imported from South America) into a no frills sound box, Meyers ruled the east bay concert scene for one glorious summer. It all came to an end in the Fall when a mothballed military supply ship, broke free, and "sailed" down the Sacramento River.
In the morning fog, nearby dockworkers saw the bow of the ship materialize, slamming into the pier that supported the warehouse, taking over one third of the floor space into the water. With the ship firmly lodged into the dock, Willy Lee tried to lobby the city council to allow concerts to continue, saying the boat would be a great VIP lounge.
