At the moment Dinosaur Jr. is my favourite music to listen to with a few beers under my belt.

The Pogues - Kind of goes without saying

Old Traditional Irish songs like 'Green Fields of France' by The Fureys and Davey Arthur and 'The Fields of Athenry' by The Dubliners.

Also, anything by The Flaming Stars. A great drinkin' band influenced by Nick Cave, Pulp, and 50's film noir, with songs such as 'The Face on the Bar Room Floor', and 'Spilled Your Pint'.

The Flaming Stars - 'The Face on the Bar Room Floor'

It's just gone 12
I've run out of beer
Things look different from down here
Nothing really matters anymore

Say hello to the face on the bar room floor

My world fell apart
brick by brick
my guardian angel took the day off sick
It takes one hand to hold the bottle
and the other to pour

but I can't seem to get up off the floor

Take me home
dry me out
hang me up or throw me out
I can't even walk straight anymore
nothing really matters anymore

well, you look down as things look up
no one comes to wish us luck
well, you can close my eyes and shut the door
and I can't seem to get up off the floor

Yeah, my world fell apart
brick by brick
my guardian angel took the day off sick
It takes one hand to hold the bottle
and the other to pour
and I can't seem to get up off the floor
nothing really matters anymore
Say hello to the face on the bar room floor

    Depends on the level of drunkeness;

    Mildly drunk - something I can talk over
    Medium drunk - something I can dance and sing to
    Heavily drunk - something I can lie on the floor and listen to, with the odd bout of dancing and singing to
    Semi-concious - something vaguely familiar
    Unconcious - don't care
    Next morning - silence please

    the more my brain devolves from the alcohol, the further back in time my interests go. Usually I start with something current, like Wolfmother or anything Jack White, then eventually it ends up being Mellon Collie-era Smashing Pumpkins, and when everyone is gone and I'm the last man standing, I throw on Mad Season - Live at the Moore VHS and rock out. Perfect way to end a drunken evening.

    All points in "time" also include PJ, of course. :)
