Rehersals

I am interested in how ofter you rehearse as a band.

we tend to rehearse once a week... if possible... if we had time i would prefer more.... and obviously i practise at home on my own from time to time, whilst writing new stuff and trying to sort out the business affairs... a manager seems like a good idea... yes my vote has been cast...

A good manager is always a very good idea

We used to rehearse twice a week, but one of our members is at uni now so it's become quite irregular.

About once a week if we've got a gig coming up. Other wise we just have writing sessions in between. We practice in a lovely shed in brookland

Sheds are the best places to rehearse as long as you don't get any complaints from the neighbours

It's on a farm in the middle of nowhere so it's perfect

You are very lucky. I have been looking for somewhere like that in the Maidstone area, would like to buy somewhere really and develop it as a recording studio and rehearsal room but they are hard to come by in this area

We have a garage

but luckily its in the country .
and on mondays we rehearse in sharon music cause sadies (moose) dad owns it

we have a stable!

its gets a bit chilly!!

uhh so does the garage ...
so we put two heaters in there.

and the door doesnt shut

part from once when it did and we had to lever it open with a drumstick.

You practise in Sharon Music?
Brilliant!


I have a practise once a week...but in between you can't keep me away from my guitar...or singing!
^.^

yaha.
we practice in the practice rooms upstairs (ironically) lol

lol
i bought my ukulele into my music lesson today ,
my music teacher tried to play it.

funny stuff

They have preactise rooms?


Whoah!


I mever knew...



My teacher laughs at me when I tell her that Haydn and Weber wrote some sexy music!

we practice in ben's mum's rather palatial garage..... we should really learn garageland by the clash.... in fact it should be the law that if you ever play in a garage you should learn it....

I've never done that...
...only ever practiced in houses...

...am I missing out?

indeed you are.... you should commandeer a garage in the name of rock'n'roll.... many houses have them.... i find pensioners are quite easy to convince... offer them werthers original and you are well away....

My Grandad was always a sucker for Werthers...
...my Nan has a Malteasers thing though...
:p


I've got two garages...but one has a boat in it (that incidentally doesn't even float...) and the other one is just full of crap.

Yarg! I wish I were a Pirate..

We practice in a converted barn, its kind of a private club where each band has a set slot once a week. To be honest for us thats not enough we'd much prefer at least twice.

The big plan is to get a house and soundproof one of the rooms to turn it into our own studio, but thats a long way off..........................that way we could leave everything set up and practice everyday!

Personally think that is the way forward Kat, this is my long term plan, to buy a barn and convert it to rehearsal studios and recoring studio, so will let you know if we ever get it sorted out.

I think last night we proved the dangers of not practicing regularly. We were very rusty, but thanks to everyone who came.

You sounded good to the crowd which ever way, so good on you, they certained enjoyed themselves

you sounded pretty tight rusty.... you must be like, well good 'n' that....
