| ____________________________________ [Sep 6,2012 3:54pm - gemini nli ""] My recording studio is in this practice facility: Rock 24/7 #66 rt.125 Kingston, NH 03848 ( located with dead storage, this place is super secure, keyless entry, massive surveillance, and.... Really expensive rooms at 425$ a month. Heat and a/c and electric included) |
| __________________________________ [Sep 6,2012 4:26pm - Lamp nli ""] Band #1: practiced at my drummer's basement in Preston, CT at first, now practices in his grandmother's basement in Sudbury, MA. Band #2: had our first few practices at the Funky Jungle in Providence when the drummer was living there. Has since practiced in an office type room of the warehouse he works at on the Pawtucket/Attleboro line. Paying zero dollars and zero cents for a place to play rules. |

| _____________________________________________ [Sep 6,2012 10:55pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] robotpie said:Yeah, I took lessons with Jake and had a shitty practice room in like 2001 when I was in highschool. Some of my fondest memories are in that old, dilapidated warehouse that served as a place for a bunch of crappy ska/metal/hardcore bands to practice in. Once, we knocked down the wall of our practice room dicking around, behind it was a staircase. In this little weird basement tomb, there was an underwater passage way and an Urkel mobile. No joke. I can vouch for the Urkel mobile, since my old band used to practice in one of the rooms that bordered the hallway leading to that fucking creepy, abyssal basement. There was a jet engine graveyard down there too; also found what looked like an interrogation room. It was partitioned off in some corner with nothing but a light bulb hanging from the ceiling and a shitty old chair. |

Ever practiced there? Is it legit storage area? If so, are they cool with blasting death metal coming out? Are there spaces big enough for parties? Don't live near there, just wondering as I've heard of practice / storage spaces before and always wondered how it works. Place is the worst. Vaettir practiced there from 2008-2009. Over $300 a month for a room with no windows/heat/ventilation. Management will randomly go in your space when you aren't there and leave love notes about a couple empty beer bottles. Lots of elitist metalcore faggotry in surrounding rooms. Accurate description is accurate. I think Charlie and his wife are born-agains. Fuck them. |
| ______________________________ [Sep 7,2012 8:59am - Boxxy ""] That place sounds conducive to getting the creative juices flowing. |

Our band recently moved out of morgan's because of the conditions at the advice of another band who moved, and because morgan's was kicking us out at 11PM and not letting us load back in after gigs. We are now further south at Music Mills in chelmsford and only paying $290 for a pro space without the troubles. |

| ______________________________________ [Jan 9,2013 3:56pm - ravenschoice ""] There are currently two rooms still available in the complex where we rehearse in Chelmsford to rent by the month. It is by far the cleanest and most secure of any we have rented in so we recommend it highly. Here are the links: Rehearsal Complex bennyhillifier |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 10,2013 11:37am - robotpie ""] Any specifics, i.e. $/month? Chelmsford is a bit far, but i'm currently looking for spaces and potential bands to split. |
| __________________________________ [Jan 25,2013 2:08pm - robotpie ""] Bumping this to see if any bands are interested in splitting a room that is in/near Boston. |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 25,2013 2:18pm - AndrewBastard ""] PanzerBastard Deathgod Messiah Blessed Offal Nechzherer Truman Highway Spitting Black all share a room at studio 52 in allston |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 25,2013 2:20pm - AndrewBastard ""] between those 6 bands are like 3 people. |
| __________________________________ [Jan 25,2013 2:43pm - robotpie ""] So would you guys be interested in adding a 7th band to that roster? I know Renick, Mark, and Alex, and probably have met more at shows drunk at one point or another, if that even matters. |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 25,2013 2:49pm - AndrewBastard ""] probably not hahah...its hard to find free days to practice as it is |
| _________________________________ [Mar 28,2013 12:05pm - Burnsy ""] So yeah, our landlord just got arrested for having 7 pounds of weed shipped USPS to either our building in Whitman or the facility in Hanson. Any thoughts on whether the cops are gonna raid our building and trash the shit out of the gear I just bought? |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 28,2013 12:24pm - robotpie ""] You mean Luke tried that? |
| _________________________________ [Mar 28,2013 12:26pm - Burnsy ""] Haha, yep. Brilliant |
| ________________________________________ [Apr 12,2013 12:37pm - ravenschoice ""] AndrewBastard said:probably not hahah...its hard to find free days to practice as it is The room sharing is a problem, and beside the fact that you have to work around everyone elses schedule, and your gear gets ripped off by your roomates. It isn't worth the measely amount of money you save going through all the trouble. I know Boston rates are rediculously high and thats why everyone is forced to share, but we only pay $290 a month for own huge space in Chelmsford and will never share again. Here's the link again to where we are Rehearsal Complex >:] |
| _____________________________________________ [Apr 12,2013 12:48pm - AndrewBastard NLI ""] Thanks for the info, owner of that practice space. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 16,2013 2:34pm - nerosoctive ""] Great link that drives the point home about how selective you need to be about the jam space you end up in http://rehearsalspace.wordpress.com |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 16,2013 10:58pm - conservationist ""] That blog makes some very salient points about the practice space debacle... doesn't mention using trailers however. |
| ___________________________________ [Sep 17,2013 10:24am - robotpie ""] Still looking to split a room, have a power trio that needs a space desperately. |

| _______________________________ [Dec 3,2013 7:36pm - Burnsy ""] Come to priority in whitman! They'll collect rent and forget to lock your door! Then they'll steal shit out of your drawers! You wanna play in the middle of the winter with no heat? You've come to the right place. You want the power on your side of the building to go out? Look no further. Spacious rooms at DISCOUNT prices. Come on down, faggets! |
