I agree. There's a big difference between feeling smarter and being smarter.
ButI think there are some days when I really am sharper than other days.
I recall the famous jazz saxaphonist Stan Getz (who did drugs and alcohol BIG TIME before he quit) being asked whether he thought those things made him play better. And he said no, but that a lot of musicians might THINK they that they do because they make them FEEL MORE LIKE PLAYING.
