In my on going attempt to help newbies, and due to the recent success of thread on avoiding jam sessions, I thought I would start a similar thread on all the reasons we avoid practicing. There may be some similar reasons, no problem with overlap. Here, Ill start:
I am too tired.
I need my coffee first. Oh and some 'nilla wafers. Ooo, I didn't know we had any cheesecake.
Look I jam once a week and I rehearse once a week with the band. I don't need to practice.
What, practice scales and arpeggios? What for? I have yet to be asked to play a scale or an arpeggio at a jam or open mic.
The family is watching TV I don't want to disturb them.
I think Ill go out for a walk first.
I am alone too much anyway, I don't need an activity that keeps me home and alone.
So folks, why aren't you practicing?
