Practice space
I've been thinking more lately about trying to rent practice space.
Joanna and I were at the Hide House in Bay View on Friday for Gallery Night. It's an old renovated tannery complex that's been partly converted into apartments and condos, and partly converted into artists studios, small offices and band practice spaces.
It's $500 a month for the rehearsal spaces, but they recommend splitting the space and cost between two or three bands. I think that if we found two other bands to share the cost ($167 per band per month) that maybe we could pull it off. I think we could make that if we just played one show a month, and if we didn't it wouldn't be too much to split between us.
Here's what their website says about it:

BAND REHEARSAL ROOMS
24’ X 32’ - Band space leases are month-to-month to provide ultimate flexibility. This is a HUGE rehearsal room and is usually shared by 2 or 3 bands which makes it a sweet deal and more affordable. Craig’s List and the local music store boards are great resources if you’re looking to split the cost and need a quick response. Available immediately. $500/mo.
