Or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Rehearsing The Stops (with apologies to Stanley Kubrick)
I have a gig this weekend and the last time I played with this band, they sprung a surprise on me and called out Super Freak. We had a complete train-wreck and I'd like to be prepared this time.
My question is, if you play this tune with a band, how do you count the breaks? Rather than try to mimic it perfectly, I'm looking for a simple way everyone can quickly nail it.
I think the stops are actually on the + of 4, but the way they play it, it kind of slurs into sounding like something else.
Thanks!
