Upgrade my DAC or buy more weed?

So I was just listening to Bad Company (Live) "No Smoke Without a Fire" at near deafening levels (about 94db at my seat), the REL G1 was pumping away... it sounded like I was actually at the effing concert... and I am POSITIVE my neighbor was hearing what was going on as well... and I was wondering if I really should be thinking about upgrading to a better DAC or if those funds might be better invested on more weed? 

It seems like more and more lately, that when I am baked on a heavy Indica like Bubba Kush, Blackwater or AK-47, that I seem to "get" the music more and enjoy the listening session more.  Also, it seems that I become more open to different types of music as well.  Likely the same with musicians and song writers... they probably create some of their best work when they are high.

Just wondering I guess about dumping more money into system upgrades or just leave it as is and keep on smokin' ?

Most excellent OP and responses.  Is this a great country or what?  Apart from a (very) few testy responses, a friendly, lively, and very funny exchange on a really interesting general topic (effect of intoxicants and technology on the quality of listening experience).  G-d bless the First Amendment.  I would love to see the Freakonomics guys sort out the marginal utility of a better dac v. better weed.

Cheers (literally and figuratively),
