Can't say I've experience that yet. One day...

Yeah. The connection is more important than individual styles. One of the examples I know most about would be the classic GNR lineup. Slash, Duff and Steve joined the band a week before going on tour, and they had vastly different influences and styles, but as Slash says in one of the books I've read about them: "We had one day of rehearsal, and it was like a synergy. It was like we'd been playing together for years!" That's exactly how I felt today, jamming with this other guitarist! It doesn't matter who he's inspired by or what he wants to play. We can make it work. We've proven that today with 20 witnesses or something like that. We just need to keep in touch, find a few others to complete the lineup, and find a place to jam! And keeping in touch and finding a place to jam is easy enough.
