Great example of playing off each other
Stumbled across this great vid of Atlanta Rythm Section. Besides having a phenomenal lead guitar, notice how well the drummer plays off the guitar players solo. He follows the rhythmic style and dynamics of the guitar to support the solo. You can hear the guitar player fishing around slightly at the start of the solo, until he finds his groove and starts to develop and expand on a theme. All the while, the drummer just hangs back and keeps the tempo and groove flowing to keep the guitar on track. Once they hook up, it's golden. These guys are incredible musicians, but the concept applies to all of us.
(There's tons of guitar solo, but I'm referring to the solo at the 5:00 mark)

"Too many crappy used drum stuff to list"
Play the SONG......not the DRUMS!!!
"I think that feeling is a lot more important than technique. It's all very well doing a triple paradiddle - but who's going to know you've done it? If you play technically you sound like everybody else. It's being original that counts." ~ John Bonham
