I would tend to agree that playing with other people is usually a great way to get beyond straight-up technique, and get more into the musicality and feel of the music. The whole is generally greater than the sum of its parts.

Anyone else have an opinion on this?

Their timing was so bad that I lost a feel for a natural transition in the arrangment. Their perspective on progressions didn't help either, I forgot how to do a cadence. The consistant 8th note beat, I lost sense of my style. He insisted that I used all down strokes. The guy was a dumbass.
