Band rehearsal noise - Beauval/Woodware Road

[bcam]

Could the band making an absolute racket around Beauval/Woodware Road please for the love of God wrap up!!!!

There are soundproofed rehearsal spaces that are far more appropriate places to rehearse than a residential street.

As a final critique, I'd give you 3/10.

They must have read this. They have now been going over the same bit for of one song for 15 minutes. Goodbye productivity of working from home......FML.

If they're having a band practice, I doubt they're reading the forum whilst doing it :)

If you don't want to go and ask them to stop, you could phone Southwark Noise Control (if it still exists) via the council's switchboard.

I'm reducing my rating to 2/10. The singing goes out of tune a lot and their endings are sloppy. Guys, if you are reading this, endings are IMPORTANT. Tighten them up....somewhere else.....soundproofed.

Thank you and goodnight.

Hi Sue

I'm just having a tongue in cheek moan.

Oh, sorry, I thought your OP was serious.

It would have driven me mad (der) as well if I was trying to work.

Everyone knows that you let the last chord ring out... the drummer goes ba-da-dum... them BAM.

[bcam]

Oh, please.....silence!??? Let it be so! Their mum must have come home!!

[uncleglen]

can't be half as bad as the endless power tools I've been surrounded by for the last 6 months.

That'll be Test Dept / Einsturzende Neubauten / SPK rehearsing.

You could have contacted Southwark's noise team about this (02075252000) or do so if they have another practice.

A band's gotta rehearse or they won't get any better. I rehearsed in a few rooms (front rooms and bedrooms) in some houses in Dulwich when I sang in a band as a teenager before we got to convert a garage into a studio. Good luck to 'em.

[Renata Hamvas]

I agree Jah Lush, but they may not realise that their amp is turned up high enough to disturb all their neighbours!

Heh, reminds me of Frank Zappa:

"We could jam in Jah's Garage

His mama was screaming, "TURN IT DOWN!"

We was playing the same old song

In the afternoon and sometimes we would

Play it all night long

It was all we knew, and easy too

So we wouldn't get it wrong

Even if you played it on a saxophone"

[Jah Lush]

Wasn't my garage but you know, egg boxes and old mattresses on the walls for soundproofing, that kind of thing. Happy days.

[NewWave]

Its in the afternoon though, so hardly like they're rehearsing last thing at night.

I think good luck to them...
