We might have wine with dinner maybe once a week, depending. After the gigs, the bar usually comps the band people a few drinks, so I take advantage of that, naturally. I like to get a fifth of R and R every month and have some in my coffee.

That reminds me, the coffee's about done, might just have a little nudge! But I still call myself a light drinker.

Moderate. I might drink once or twice a month. When I do, I have between one and seven drinks.

Rare. I have a glass of wine, on average, once every two months or so, and maybe a gin-and-tonic once or twice year. I'd say I get drunk only once every year or two (not that it takes much).

I would say on ocassion; parties, New Year's, etc. But that's not what I'd call either moderate or rare.

Rare. I'll have a beer, two at the most every once in awhile if I'm at a bar with friends. Probably not more often then every few months. I'm not much of a drinker as I just don't care much for alcoholic drinks. I prefer coffee, iced tea, milk or juice over alcoholic drinks.

Moderate, I guess. I don't drink very often anymore, but occasionally I'll drink several glasses of champagne. Haven't had any since we returned from Phuket, but during our holiday there we drank our share.

No, seriously, I've been bad this year. My friend and I were just analysing our alcohol consuption (tonight at the bar). We've been thrashed always every week this semester.

Moderate. For a while, I had really cut back on drinking alcohol, but I've been drinking a little more lately. I have a couple of drinks 3-4 times a week.

Wow, thanks... She is up for Entertainer of the Year from the Washington State Blues Society, also on the Seattle Weekly's contest, she's in 3 categories... blues, guitar, and lifetime achievement. Anyone can vote, here's the site.
http://www.seattleweekly.com/musicawards/ballot.ph...


We will be back up in Bellingham maybe sometime this summer, even, they really love us up there and want us back... probably at The Wild Buffalo or a Mt Baker Theater concert. We will be in Anacortes at The Rockfish Grill May 14th, a Saturday... we did their New Year's Eve party.

Last year The Alice Stuart Band was voted Seattle's Best Blues Band... want it again this year, too! We have a show May 1st in Pioneer Square. If you liked what you heard on the website, you'll go nuts listening in person! Our next cd will be a lot of live stuff. I sure hope you can catch us sometime, I guarantee it'd be worth it! Alice rocks!

When I go out I have, on average, 3 beers and then switch to water or lemondade.

We've been wondering about that, actually. Any hints on how to break into the Vancouver scene? She's rock/blues/Americana... the band really rocks. She gets back from California tomorrow, I'll ask about Vancouver.

I haven't tweaked my Scotch & Whiskey tastes yet, insufficieent funds. Compared to Bushmill's (my usual 'cheap' whiskey, Laphroiag is up there in my book. Like I said, I lack the funds to taste too many.

Moderate, but then again any one who drinks regularly and calls it moderate is probably underestimating their amount of consumption.

Are you wondering what most people consider heavy, or light ? What does moderate mean to you? We are all equal here and some subjects relate to our individual histories...as a rule, if you believe you are indulging too much...well..you know the rest

Oddly enough, last night was the end of a hellish period, so it was time to make a trip to the package store. I settled on Speyburn. As I only had one drink so far, so it's not too fair to judge it as yet. However, tis not looking to favorably.

Nah, I'll deal with it. I heard it's not as humid. I don't know if you know about summers in Toronto, but they're brutal. They only difference is that we get brutal winters, too, while yours are nice.

Rare at best. I maybe consume two glasses of white wine in a year. The only time I drink white wine is when I'm at a fancy restaurant. Other times I drink iced tea, milk water, soft drinks (only occasionally), juice. I'm not much of a drinker, never have been.
