but I've just realised that I can't remember the last time I was without a massive fucking headache. I also realised I am clenching my jaw tighter than a drug-mule's anus going through customs.

but if you are dehydrated then in order to maintain intracranial pressure you get vasoconstriction which causes the headache. The brain itself doesn't feel pain.
Hangover headaches are a combintion of dehydration (alcohol acts on the kidneys to stop them reabsorbing water, hence the 'breaking the seal' phenomenon) and feeling sick from the breakdown products of ethanol, which are generally nasty aldehyde type stuff and much more toxic than ethanol itself.

worryingly, if you're a chronic alcohol abuser, just before your liver packs in entirely you stop getting hangovers; your liver can no longer break down the ethanol in to the stuff that makes you ill.
However if you've never gotten a hangover you probably don't need to worry about that; some people just don't.
