I do agree that the band wasn't really what you'd call "tight" But since the OP wasn't functioning as part of the rhythm section here, we can't really hold any of their problems against him
HEhe...whew...thanks!!

Understood. I will definitely try to put my licks in where they should and not play all the time. Thank you.
Man, I wish I could hear what you all would have done while playing with that song. That would be so awesome!
