Are you in a band?
 

Are you in a band? If so, where does your band rehearse? If applicable, how much do you pay? Lastly, what city and state do you live in? The info you give will contribute to making the world a better place. Thank you, I appreciate your input.

I listen to bands.

Does that count?

Sure

i'm not currently,...but have been on and off for the past four or five years,....

we normally practiced in someone's garage,......one band practiced in a member's music store after hours (which was great because you never had to bring your insturment, you could just pick something off the wall and all the sound equipment was already hooked up)

most of the time we'd have gigs two or three nights a week (weekends, and normally accoustic on a wed night),....so we played regularly,......practice was normally on thursdays, once a week,....sometimes sunday afternoons too depending on what we had goin on,.......


oh,...how much do you pay?,....

at first you'll play for damn near nothing, unless you've already built up your gig list with another band,.....

most of what we were doin was small bars and such so depending on the size of the band it would vary,....but normally 150 per man on any re-booking,....

OR if you know your gonna pull a bunch of people, playing for a percentage of the door,.....normally 75 to 80

also, if your of age, and your gonna be drinking, i'd ask or imply that there should be a band tab,.....its not often you can get liquior covered all night,....draft beer is normally covered,....or they'll give you a tab limit,...which is cool too

and if youre good, folks will bring you drinks, so sometimes thats not even an issue,...

i do, however, recomend explainin to everyone in the band that the bar tab should not come outa the gig pay, or it could get akward when one person drinks more than the other,.....and trust me, at the end of the night the last thign youre gonna wanna do is figure who drank what, and just take that money outa their share,......

naaaaaaaah, I'm solo and drunk right now. Just me and my acoustic guitar and some songs I wrote, I occasionally play in front of people, but no band sadly

My band split up last week bcuz of various reasons. I was fed up with the music and we could never get time to practise, so me and the bassist just quit.

I'm gonna work my ass off on drums til summer and get back in the game.

All of my band died in bizarre gardening accidents

I "rehearse" and record in my dorm room, and it doesn't cost me shit.

I pratice with my band every saturday right in the comfort of my own home......but then again the band I'm referring to is from the game "Rock Band"......my drummer is from florida and my bassist is from socal. My roommate is the vocalist and I'm the lead guitarist

write/record in my friends basement for free. DIY or DIE
