Title: CBD / Hemp infused drinks before gigs?
Trying to cut down on alcohol intake at gigs. There is zero doubt 2 beers loosens me up and is a perfect mix for me before a gig. But, sometimes people buy us shots, sometimes I'm literally thirsty, sometimes I get started and order beers in between, etc...
Over the course of an entire night I'm always OK, but one thing we have started doing is bringing some 0.0% Heineken which is actually not bad when really cold. I actually found Guinness Draft non-alcohol which is very good!
So even if we have some shots over the course of night, drinking non-alcoholic beverages in between is great.
But, honestly just some really good calming option pre-gig might be best and I'm researching hemp or CBD infused drinks now.
Straight up THC and I can't be trusted to not get goofy, which would make me even more anxious at a gig.
Thoughts?
Meditation, etc. don't seem to work well especially if we are humping a ton of gear and the clock is ticking...
PLEASE NOTE: I'm perma-banned from Pub so if this gets moved I'll never see the responses.

I've tried a few different things to take the edge off before gigs, and honestly, CBD drinks never really did much for me. If you're looking for something with a little more noticeable effect, the best THC gummies could be a good alternative. Just be mindful of the dosage—too much can mess with timing and focus. A mild dose can help with relaxation without making you sluggish or throwing off your playing.
