Thanks, in fact it wasn't a rehearsal, just one two three four, like a jam session.

Next time there will be a drummer because the guitarist mostly plays bebop.

I've been getting together with a few friends just to play through some tunes.  Sax, trumpet, keys, bass.  Really interesting playing without a drummer as we have to keep in time without a beat.  We four are so much better at open jams now.

It's obviously good to play with drummers but like @NickA says above, playing without them is also really important. It's also nice in a rehearsal/jam situation because you can usually play without an amp which I find good for my overall playing. Also, of course, not all drummers are created equal so sometimes adding a drummer is detrimental....
