I don’t really get drunk in bars these days. Wouldn’t be able to handle it.

OK, sometimes I have two pints of beer at the Brass Monkey Shore after the Wednesday quiz and occasionally there’s a shot of tequila. But that’s it.

No hardball. Not like the old days.

There are, however, lots of great songs about getting drunk. Maybe I’ll make a Spotfy playlist based on these…

Right off the top of my head I’m thinking: of

’I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight’ by Richard and Linda Thompson

‘Let’s Get Fucked Up’ by The Cramps

‘Night Owl’ by Gerry Rafferty

Got any more? Let me know on this Facebook thread.
