Rehearsals and practice times by myself are like these little islands of 'Okay' in a vast sea of 'Holy Crap!

About This Quote

To be brutally honest, rehearsals are not fun! So it is only natural to have moments when you are in the midst of them when you think, "How am I going to get through this? I hate these songs!" But the truth is that when you are in the midst of a rehearsal, it's like being on an island of "Okay." What makes the difference is how you handle those times. Rehearsing and practicing with others will change your life. You'll learn so much from them and they'll learn from you. It'll be far easier to stay positive and focused during those times than it would be if you'd done it alone.

What's more, these rehearsals and practices will give you the opportunity to see what works and what doesn't work for your friends and bandmates. You can tell them that they need to work on something or that they're doing something wrong. You can help them figure out how to make things better.

And as a bonus, you'll probably enjoy these rehearsals and practices far more than you do now!
