What does "laps" mean in this sentence? Guitar player says: First, we have to run ten laps, because last night was too lame. Full context: We did a concert last night. There was a lot of energy and will, but musically it wasn't good enough. So today we have rehearsal camp all day. First, we have to run ten laps, because last night was too lame. Last night I felt like calling the music store in Odense and asking them to drive three amplifiers to our room backstage and do a penalty rehearsal. It was so unfocused. But then in the end...We found each other during the concert.

Yes a lap is once around a race circuit or similar, but in this context I think it is referring to the need to practice and rehearse extremely hard, at the "rehearsal camp"today, 'all day' because last night's performance was not good enough. It is saying we have to improve our performance by hard rehearsals all day long, to work out the problems. It is using the phrase "run ten laps" to emphasise how hard the group must work, to improve its performance..

A "lap" is one trip around a track. Like when runners compete in a race. Например, когда бегуны соревнуются в гонке.

A lap is a circuit of a race track or running track. Here it seems to be referring to a running track.
