It's awesome that you are flying ahead with your lead playing, but you really should take a step back and sure up your rhythm playing. This is especially true if you want to be a bit of a rounded guitarist.

As you may know, I participated in a band at a local music store/school. The other guitar play focused on nothing but lead and fancied himself a blues player. Because of this, he had a very limited roll in the band because I had to take every single rhythm role. Rhythm doesn't have to be boring... you can do a lot with it, especially if you combine rhythm and lead.

Just something to think about...
