I used to like rehearsing , when things were 'proper' .
This would mean that ; the rehearsal room was adequate , not tiny . Your ears would not be ringing for the rest of the day/night .
The other band members always knew when to look after the kids , and not have them brought along bored for 3 hours . Never got the weeks mixed up. Songs were learnt by all for the next rehearsal . No bitchy comments if there were difficult parts of a song that had to be ironed out.
This was rare, hence me not being in a band for. 4 years ..
