With that said, one could also argue, I probably listen to significantly more advanced layered difficult music than the average pothead, and feel no further need for assistance than I already have.
Okay, so you don't smoke weed. Instantly, you're opinion here is void. Also, this isn't a Weed Smoking forum, this is a music forum so you're naive to think that you listen to more complex music than anybody else in this thread.

Finally, yes. Yes, it does have an affect and you can appreciate things in a different, more perceptive manner. If you want to argue your point. Get high first so you know what you're talking about.

I've never actually listened to DSOTM while stoned, probably for fear of growing dreadlocks and refraining from washing myself. At the same time I know I'm missing out on something.

It does make songs seem longer or slower in some cases and that's not a bad thing. You find yourself becoming immersed in the music and paying more attention to every note and detail and nothing seems to pass you by, hence giving the feeling that the song is longer. To be honest drinking has a more negative effect on my music listening, when I start binging on Pearl Jam then I know I've had enough and it's time to go to bed.

So those 20 minute multi-part high-brow epics don't make for more progressive sex?

To be honest I've never really paid any attention to music during sex, it's just there as background music.

I said 'average'. I wouldn't say this forum is for average anybody, obviously most people that are drawn here are already apt to be prone to music discussion.

My point comes from the experience of knowing people who smoke lots of pot, and people who don't, and the people who smoke pot often tend to be drawn to significantly simpler bassier music(hip-hop, doom metal, etc.). Where as, I listen to probably more layered music than they do(jazz, classical, prog).

Not to say that I'm a better listener, or that layered means more musical. Just calling BS on the concept that weed somehow makes complex music more easy to comprehend. When, in actuality, all evidence points that pot makes one crave the opposite.

As for demanding I smoke weed, I take the Frank Zappa defense. The man heavily criticized drug usage, and heavily questioned it's importance in understanding/creating music. Perhaps, I'm utilizing an element of shared knowledge as he's probably the most clear minded, and logical, thinker of any musician I've seen.

I think it makes you think you are enjoying it more, but still find yourself asking "Who is this" to the most familiar tunes.
