But I don't think it will enhance anything, technically at least. However, I know artists that do cocaine, for example, to increase their "presence" on stage.

I tried this and ended up playing an hour of really obscure grime tunes.

really obscure grime tunes.

Track list please.

For example, these guys thought they were taking "performance enhancers":

Then there is this:

I hate that.
I used to play loads of obscure Psy Techno from Poland & France.
Club owner kacked me out and told me if I played another shitty tune he`d stop my set.
I played one more, louder and more obscure than before, packed up and walked off.
Douche

And the music was superb.

beta blockers?

A big huff of an Ether soaked cloth


Or alternatively, +1 for Piracetam. Dosed with coffee its like a mild ritalin with none of the side-effects. Pulled me through a 32 hour marathon this week so i could get my dissertation done.

[Killamike49]

You guys are talking about piracetam like it's nzt, haha. Is it really that awesome?

[VirtualMark]

I've tried piracetam, it didn't do much tbh. You're supposed to take it with choline, else it can give a headache. I tried it for a few days, but didn't really notice any effects on concentration or alertness.

Things that do enhance mental performance are modafinil, which has been shown to increase alertness and memory, and any of the stimulant adhd meds. Modafinil is legal to buy, i've tried it and it really does work well. It just makes you feel wide awake and you could study for hours if you need to. And i'm prescribed concerta for adhd, which is ritalin extended release. This also helps if you've got to focus for a few hours.

Cocaine has been suggested, and as it is a dopamine re-uptake inhibitor like ritalin i'd imagine it would help with focus for a while. Problem with cocaine is that its a lot stronger than ritalin, so the performance enhancing effects are hard to control. After a few lines it will probably decrease performance, but make your ego think you're doing better.

seeing any picture of that man and his dinner plate pupils makes me want to huff lines

[nowaysj]

beta blockers?

Elaborate.

[MikeyOhh]

Honestly, the music gets me high enough by itself and experiencing it sober has always given me the best effects.

[Today]

beta blockers?

Elaborate.

the only actual performance enhancer for a musician that i know of. Concert soloists take 'em. from what i've read it has no psychoactive effects, other than totally calming your nerces. No upper/downer/psychedelic/dissociative/sensory enhancement etc., you're essentially sober. But in any situation that would normally make your palms sweat and your heart race, you're fine.
a common circumstance is having practiced your ass off, know your part backward and front, but when in front of a big crowd, you just can't play it. These beta blockers eliminate that feel

but yeah, coming from a guy who's taken as many drugs a si could get my hands on and played shows all kinds of fucked up, thinking it were a good idea at the time -- i Always play better when I'm sober. with the one minor exception of drinking bourbon or scotch when playing blues guitar.

[alphacat]

L-Theanine and Piracetam.

No, seriously. Check them out. Both legal too.

was looking into the latter and came across a word i didn't know

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nootropic

why have i, the biggest math and science nerd i know, i not heard of these before?

obvious answer: because it's bullshit.


but if you're just trying to get pumped and lose any nerves, you can't go wrong with alcohol and caffeine.

and to alphacat - i call placebo.

Nope. There's definitely an effect for most people. Placebo reports are not this consistent.

I enjoyed myself, but there's only so much wiley you can play to people expecting commercial electro house

[Brewce]

15mg of adderall instant release with lots of water should do the trick. Makes you focus, plus you get a nice body high (love everything) feeling.
