I think everyone know how it's tougth to play when you have a band(aremm drums aremm) and I would know where you are playing and wont cost a lot?

would you rent a garage?
do we can rent a space for play when we want like a storage place?
do you have special appartment where you have a place to play?

anyway I would want to know this since me and our band are trying to planify a place where we'll be able to play and wont force us to go in small city

thanks for your answer in advance

I suppose it depends on where you live and how offended your neighbours would be, should you play during times inconvenient for them.

I personally think we need to play with our band, alone, and at any opportunity we can find...depending on our level of committment.

Also, renting space does cost money and unless you have a more than well paying day job or benevolent relatives, then the space you rent would relate to your earning power for gigging.

That is, if you are just starting out as a band or in music entirely, then basements and garages my be your only option. As your revenue warrants it, usually reflective of your popularity, then a private rental space would be beneficial, in my opinion.

I suggest: As the business grows, so does the office which fosters personal growth and returns to more business growth, etc.
