Cannabis and Live Music: Enhancing Your Concert Experience This Summer
As early as the roaring 20s, cannabis and live music had already gone hand-in-hand. Jazz musicians, also known as vipers, would consume marijuana to help sustain their energies working late nights and to ‘provoke imaginative, experimental improvisations that captivated the audience.’
Even famous musicians from the swinging 60s to 70s, like Bob Dylan and The Beatles, have openly talked about cannabis and its mind-expanding influence on their music!
If you're planning to attend summer concerts in Southern California, let's talk about how cannabis and live music go hand-in-hand and why it could be a good idea to get cannabis delivery with On Deck Delivery.
How Cannabis Can Enhance the Live Music Experience
Tetrahydrocannabinol or THC, the primary psychoactive compound in marijuana, interacts with our brain and enhances the way it processes sound. You'll be able to pick up on the subtle layers and nuances in the instruments and voice that might otherwise go unnoticed.
Apart from this, cannabis can also help you:
Relax Before the Show
For most people, pre-concert rituals are as fun as the concert itself. As you prepare for the concert, you can smoke or get some CBD-rich or a 1:1 THC-CBD product to help you unwind before attending crowded events.
They can be especially helpful if you experience social anxiety! Cannabis can create a more laid-back concert experience for you.
Enhance the Atmosphere
The music, lighting, and outdoor setting may feel more immersive when you're baked! Cannabis can amplify sensory input, making visuals more vivid, experiential, and captivating.
It's also known to slow down perception of time, which can make for an interesting experience as you feel every beat and rhythm feel more spaced out.
Social Enjoyment & Empathy
Because cannabis increases state absorption, listeners can get deeply invested in the music and form a deeper connection to the artist and to the other concertgoers.
You will also feel more “at one” with the crowd as you all enjoy the same music and experience together.
Alternative to Alcohol for Some Adults
Alcohol = calories and hangovers; cannabis only has minimal of those (depending on the product.)
For this reason, some adults prefer sipping THC-infused beverages instead, to replicate the social ritual of drinking without the hangover, toxicity, and caloric intake.
However, the key here is microdosing, because overdrinking THC drinks can cause uncomfortable intoxication, or greening out. You might not enjoy, or even attend, the concert, after all!

Cannabis Safety Tips for Concertgoers
To set things straight: you can't (and shouldn't) consume your cannabis at the concert itself. That is illegal under California law and might be perceived as disrespectful to other concertgoers (especially as the La Puente Concerts in the Park is considered a family-friendly event).
This means you must plan everything in advance!
1. Check the concert guidelines
Make sure to check the list of recommended and prohibited items to bring to enjoy the full experience.
For most public outdoor concerts, attendees are encouraged to bring chairs and blankets. Prohibited items might include alcohol, glass bottles, noisemakers, and even weed, among others.
2. Get your cannabis products in advance
Some people may also have the same pre-concert idea as you, so it's better to skip going to dispensaries and opt for cannabis delivery instead!
Choose a marijuana product according to your tolerance level, desired effect, preferred type or form, and the event duration, too, as some can have a quick-onset effect or a long-lasting one.
Browse and choose from our products by tapping the button below, and we'll get your order ready and delivered in 90 minutes!
3. Start low and go slow
A reminder, especially for beginners, to wait for the effects before consuming more. Some weed products take time before the effect fully sets in, so start in low dosages and go slow.
Remember: you want to enjoy the live music! You can't do that if you're too hammered.
Also, DO NOT mix weed with alcohol, as they can amplify the effects of each other and can result in unpredictable reactions.
4. Plan your transportation ahead of time
NEVER drive under the influence, as it can get extremely dangerous not only for you and your friends but also for other people on the road.
It would be perfect if there were one sober friend who could act as your designated driver. But if not, opt for ridesharing services or public transportation, such as a bus or a taxi.
Driving under the influence is a serious offense in California and can cost you a hefty fine and/or jail time.
5. Enjoy the live music responsibly!
Celebrate your local community events and music festivals by consuming marijuana responsibly!
DO NOT smoke or bring your products to the concert, even if it's not explicitly stated in the guidelines. Doing this may lead to your removal from the venue or denied entry.
Prioritize your hydration and safety, and always support your community by patronizing local businesses, including On Deck Delivery!
