GuitarFlame.com - Guitar stories from a semi-pro guitar player: The ideal rehearsal room?

  • Robert · 1 year ago
    Cool.

    Just needs non-parallel walls to break up the standing waves.

    The ideal rehearsal space is the one the drummer doesn't know about!

    So does the keyboardist play while sitting on the couch? very comfy! I would remove the pinball machine and pool table because we wouldn't get any rehearsing done! Where is the beer fridge?
  • Ovidiu · 1 year ago
    @Dr J: Yeah, but still a drummer is like a woman, can't live without one, right?

    @Jon: We have at our rehearsal room a ping-pong table and also fitness equipment, like lifting weights, exercise bikes, etc. I can tell you that the first time there we played some table tennis, had a bit of fun testing the small gym we have there, but after a while we started to ignore them.

    Wow that's a fancy rehearsal studio, all we have is a PA and a fridge... oh and stage lights, you've gotta have those to get you in the mood!
  • Ovidiu · 1 year ago
    Hmm, stage lights? Nope! None, but we have natural lights ;-)

    How about a boxing bag? (Is this the word, bag?) We have one there. No fridge, but we can have a barbecue outside in the yard. Ah, yes, and internet connection, in an office there. The rehearsal room is in the building of a private company that one of the buddy of our lead singer owns. By the way, we also have 2 bongos, even nobody really uses the, they are there...

    So you kill the singer but keep the keys??? I may have to rethink this whole internet pen pal thing, Ovidiu! ;)
  • Ovidiu · 1 year ago
    We just sent him for some beer ;-)

    Move in all the sound gear and your space slowly evaporates.

    I don't see a closet, but you're going to need some place to store all the cables and cases and converters and other crap that accumulates.

    I know, I know...quit being so stinkin' practical and shoot some pool!
