Being a performer - it's really hard when the drinks are on the house. Our lead-singer is an alcoholic, so we as a band has made a commitment to stay sober - something that actually pleases most venue owners (There are a few who would rather like us to drink - and then subtract the drinks from our payment as they save money that way), and let us keep a high quality performance - all night through.
If the rest of your group/ firends have problems accepting your choice - then it's not YOUR problem. Those friends will be gone from your life in the next 10 years anyhow - don't get stuck with a drinking habbit that severly impairs your future life.
