Plus I already reek of patchouli from my lush deodorant. If I start smelling of patchouli and sage I'm going to have to start listening to Grateful Dead. It's a balancing act between smelling like a teenage boy and a dirty hippie.
The Grateful Dead aren't your only option, you could delve into the back catalogue of Ozric Tentacles, go with the twisted fuckery of Shpongle, or if you need to vent, a bit of crusty/anarcho punk, all go very well with patchouli and sage.
I'm playing a gig with some crusty bands at The Birds Nest in Deptford in a few weeks. The sound guy there was (is?) in Ozric Tentacles and loves blasting his own stuff between sets. Ticks all the boxes.
