cool ideas guys.

i learned about some of this "suspended resolution" stuff from, you guessed it, a piano player. he was also big into the idea guitarists think of T-Bone automatically with--starting a half step off key with a dominant chord in a "standard" blues.

though, getting a little off track, my buddy and mentor joe (now passed) would have done it like this, i think...

bars 9-12, 1 beat per chord...

Gmaj: 7x578x
Gmaj7: 7x577x
G6/A: 5x575x
A7sus: 5x577x

C#m7b5: x4545x
C#m7b5: 3x242x
F#7+5: 2x233x
F#7: 2x235x

Bm6: 7x677x
F#7#9: xx4355
C#7#9: x4345x
C9: x3233x

Bm/maj7: x2032x (whole bar, let sustain, and then back to the i)

yeah, that's fun...you can also take what i have for bar 11, make it two beats per chord, and span that progresion for bar 11 and 12...then we get back to the i as the m/maj7....ooh...
