Quilly Posted July 4, 2018 Author Share Posted July 4, 2018 Just had rehearsal tonight without the lead guitarist (on holidays) but we still had rhythm and acoustic. Really glad it went ahead. Learned 2-3 new covers. Everyone was more aware of what they were playing , volume way down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and the new rhythm guitarist are 'blow-ins' (I'm the third bassist this band has had). There seemed to be a lot more democracy there also.

Bluewine Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Too many variables, what type of band, the goals of the band and how much time members agree they can commit to rehearsing. Blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naxos10 Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 We have a regular practice slot at a studio so we keep in touch via WhatsApp and if someone can't make it we will see if a change of day is possible or the available members decide if they want to carry on as normal. It's good that we are pretty relaxed as a band and appreciate each others commitments, so far in two years we've only missed a handful of practices.

DaytonaRik Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 We rehearsed yesterday - first time in approx 4-5 weeks due to other commitments, holidays, work etc...it was as if we'd never stopped rehearsing. I guess that's when the long hours we've all put in pay dividends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmccombe7 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Much the same here. No rehearsals since 24th June until 29th July due to other commitments but we decided to learn 4 or 5 new songs. Start up band so still putting set together. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaytonaRik Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 A bit different for us - we're all playing in other projects but with exception of one track the material we rehearsed is unique to this band. It's a great feeling when you've been apart for a while and it's as if you all rehearsed together the day before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
