Semi-pro musician, been playing in bands for over 30 years. I am normally against people getting high before rehearsals, as it usually makes things worse. I have a running feud with my singer and lead guitarist about their pot use. I recently made it clear I was about to quit playing with them. The guitarist told me that he and the singer would tone it down, and last week they did, and the jam was great.

Yesterday the same thing, then at the end the singer said 'only two songs left, let's smoke a joint'. As I had a few beers I thought 'whatever'. Jokingly, they offered me a hit, and impulsively I hit it 4-5 times, catching a strong buzz (I usually never smoke weed).

We then played the last few songs, and...it was fantastic. For the first time, we nailed 'LA Woman', which is a tricky song that the singer always fucks up. The other songs were also amazing.

I am very confused. Have I been wrong all this time? Or was it a fluke? Should I do as they do, and smoke weed 24/7? I don't wanna turn into a White nigger...or DO I???

I think it's a placebo, more effective is that you were all on the same page, and that made it easier to synchronize with each other.

Yes. But I don't know how to feel about this, given my usual uptight anti-pot stance.

Tell me how to feel, Poalrs!

Don't worry about it.
