How do you wind down after a gig?
I DJ two nights a week (Tonight and tomorrow) and I’m sat here wide awake, unable to sleep at 5:30 AM, after being home since 4:30. I work a 9 to 5 job in the week so surely I should be absolutely shattered by now, but instead I find myself itching to make more mixes (even though I’ve just been doing it for 4 hours straight) until my body literally drops.
Anyone have any tips on getting some shut eye after a gig?
Stay at the club for another hour and dance your ass off to the dj playing after you
I usually come home and the first thing I do is wash off the club funk. Afterwards, make a cup of hot herbal tea (the fancier the better). I don’t listen to music afterwards because the ear fatigue has really set in by the time I get home. A little herbal tea and a little reading in bed go a long way to calm me down.
i usually hang out with my friend for an hour or so walk with him/her home 
after my sets (college parties) I have an ice cold beer at home with my roommates and talk about how filthy the dance floor got
watch a david attenborough documentary and wait for the jaw to stop swinging…
This is a PG forum, keep that in mind when posting.
Red Wine and Iplayer. That is all.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m usually pretty exhausted, physically, when I’m done playing so if I can somehow skip out, sleep will come pretty easily. If I stick around and hang out with people, that usually means a late night out and in bed by around 8am.
Usually i grab a cup of tea on my way home and listen to some sinatra
Damnit 
I’ll usually have a beer and a “smoke” and that does the job.
Hot shower → cookies and milk → bed
I haven’t played out as a DJ, but after shows with my old reggae band, we’d always have some nice “herbal tea”…
well sir, thats my suggestion out.
soft relaxing music while bubblin’ my tube 
anything but silence, thats when my ears start to ring
Um
I’ll have some green tea and in about 40 minutes I’ll be dying to sleep.
Just put some Louis Armstrong on.
Is it considered PG if it’s natural, and prescribed by a doctor for my Crohn’s disease?
