[QUOTE="guitarcomet, post: 51205, member: 1838"] I just wanted to add that I'm not being a d!ckhead. I'm easy to work with and when an extra lick or note is added in here or there, I don't bent out of shape. But sometimes, the lick or not doesn't fit the song. (even throwing other players off time) Some people learn stuff wrong. Then they can't adjust. The band I left has a drummer that refuses to work on certain parts (like the break in Pat Benatar's "Heartbreaker") He never got it right at rehearsal and decided to play a straight beat through the part he was messing up on. It worked, but sounded way wrong. Now after playing it that way 50+?? times, I'm not sure I can play it the right way anymore. Really! It's things like this that I put up with to play in bands around here. I can't play [b]every[/b] lead line just like the record, but I can come close and play it close enough to where the singer knows when to come back in...every time! [/QUOTE]
