Hey comrades!
Hope you are having a great day.
Last Friday we (Our band) started our rehearsals again. after about 6 months!
we shut our weekly rehearsals after the Covid pandemic since Feb 2020 just right before our live show which was also canceled due to the situation. now we are back again and we hope we can hold some live shows in near future.
This is a video of our rehearsal.
Do you play in a band? how are you doing these days?

Played our first live gig since the lockdowns last night. A bit rusty in some places but great to be performing live again.

Wow, that's tough!
How do you name it? Death metal, doom metal...?

Guess you feel happy it starts all over again.

I think it should be groove metal.

No, I live in the north west of Iran. Tehran is at the center.
Yes, lots of metalheads live here too. The thing is we don't play metal that much. Our band is mostly a rock and blues band.

I guess things are a little different over here. We started rehearsing again back sometime, maybe May? Things didn't work out with the original singer, but we found another one and she is really good and gets the audience joining in/dancing, generally very good positive character.

We did an initial 'warm up/free gig' back in November, then two more. The middle one was absolutely fantastic, with a very appreciative crowd who danced from the first notes to the last and really seemed to enjoy themselves. They insisted on a second encore, so we obliged. The plan was that we would do this one free for a second paid booking later, but they paid us anyway! The third gig was a little quieter, though a smaller number of very 'happy' people who danced most of the set too.

We haven't got another gig now until late Feb, so the plan is a string of rehearsals in January to polish up some of the songs that we haven't played live yet. I'm already missing playing live, so I've been out and played a couple of solo/acoustic open mics and another more 'rock' with a house band that you can slot in with. Trying to fit a few more of those in between now and Christmas/before any new restrictions (that hopefully won't happen, but I'm not optimistic).
