It does not sound like you will stay with them. It is Hard to get 4 or 5 guys (people) that get a long, like the same music and tone . That's why its said to be kind of magic when it happens.

Going to make new contacts after only two jams, is not rude. Its good business. It kind of like job hunting, you need to get your resume out there.

Whether you like what you’re playing or not, play it the best you can. Make your resume worth remembering.

Cool. So there would be nothing wrong with looking around for a better matching band, while still jamming with those guys until I find that better match. It's not exactly because I can play a whole lot of songs, though. Most of what I can play are quite simple songs, and most of the songs I want to be able to play covers of are GNR, even though I want to play original material on-stage (as far as I have understood, you must pay royalties if you make money on playing covers).

I can easily understand the comparison between looking for a band and looking for a job. And even if I find another band (or the people to start one), even if I don't get to join them, it's still important to give it a shot and do my best. Because if I make a big enough impact on them, there's a chance they'll either keep me in mind next time they're looking for a guitarist, or decide to try with an extra guitarist than they're used to. So in the end, it's all about leaving a good enough impression, not about actually trying to join a better band.

I might even try attending some jam-nights at a venue. I know one place that has such, although those jam-nights are on the same day that the band I'm with right now practice in their Practice-room. I've heard that open-mic nights and jam-nights are a great way to find one's band-mates, so it's worth a try.
