I drink Gatorade at all of our practices and gigs. In fact my bandmates call me Gatorade boy. They think it's funny but I'm the one that's sober and can remember from one week to the next what was said and what was done. So go ahead and call me Gatorade boy I kind of like it really.
Haha! Wear that badge proudly. I enjoy being "Waterboy" because, like you, I enjoy being fully aware and enjoying myself, being able to remember it all, and not having cramps. However, it's hard to stifle the strong urge to pee when you still have 4 more songs to play before your next break. :p
