Hi:

So the two guitar lads and I are trying to get this tune down. I am picking up the licks / song structure from bass tab white pages and the recording.

Our problem is this (maybe we just need to practice more) ..we are having a little problem getting the lead and bass (no drums) to synch in timewise and feelwise.

The sheet music is in 4/4 and the song rumbles along at aretty good clip. the guitar lad says he is feeling the song in 2, and that I'm throwing him off, but he thinks I am playing the tune properly...just that the feel is off....Maybe I need to play with the recording more and look for some subtle things I'm missing

Any ideas how we might get our act togthern on this tune...pointers in getting from a 4/4 time to a two feel?

Thanks
