okeiko-machi (お稽古待ち): literally, "waiting for rehearsals"
Encompasses fan club participation in irimachi and demachi while their star is rehearsing for a performance. During okeiko-machi, club members are not required to don their club wear (in fact, they usually haven't been given wear for the upcoming performance yet). Fans sometimes meet in a different place or behave slightly differently for iride that is not connected to a performance.
