Rehersal
Today it was fun! We were able to play through four or five songs and get them quite ready for the “Big Gig” end of the month. We just have to get half a hour worth of songs together and try to impress that little public that will be there at so early hour that we are playing at. Details will follow in a week or two.
Anyway, rehersal went well. Personaly I’m very pleased with our new member (the drummer) who has showed some creativity and cooperation. I hope this will continue. The only thing that’s bothering me is that the drummer and bassist both have a thing for covers. They just want to play some covers. Which is not good for the artistic growth of the band. I think that we should play our own material mostly and focus on that and not rehearsing other peoples songs. It’s OK to have one or two covers rehearsed if something goes wrong during a gig, but our own stuff is that that matters.
BTW: It was amazing how we were able to get two new songs half-done in 30 minutes. True, I have been working on them for some time, but we were able to fuck them up completlly and it didn’t turn out so bad. We’ll se next saturday how we can make them nice enough for public. :) Maybe I will record the rehersal next time (haven’t done that in a while) and put some samples here. We’ll see.
