it's possible to do it with all of us. especially if we can get a twelve string in there. everyone might have to swallow their pride and play backing on some parts. i don't mind playing rhythm and i'll defer to the better leads.

what we may have to do is layer it, maybe have one guy play a part and and another playing the same thing an octave lower or higher.

but as said before, what type of song are we going for, a stairway type or a comfortably numb type or a freebird type, etc. this could really turn out great, but it may take some work.
To improve technique and of course trying to keep all as clean as possible. I know my own limits and speed limits and so on I never play anything I'm not capable of. That wouldn't make any sense. After three years of playing I tried to play everything as fast as possible and that sounded, I would say, like shit, and I didn't realize that if I'd play bit slower things than I was capable of playing then everything would sound much better.
