Is this for real? You mean to tell me a keyboardist, any keyboardist, could dissect what a guitarist is playing, how he is comprising his chords, and alter his keyboard playing accordingly. I can't imagine. I mean, if you can, that's amazing but that blows my mind. How long would it take to rehearse a song? A hour or so or a week?
