Playing lead in a covers band (when it's actually functioning), I tend to have to learn other people's solos as note-perfect as possible, and, generally, I find this difficult. Mainly because I'm not as good a guitarist as the invariably highly talented soloist on the original, plus I'm having to learn solos by different people who have different playing styles - not just to me, but to each other too.
In short, I only tackle songs I think I have a reasonable chance of doing a recognisable solo to that people will recognise and also won't get me laughed at. However, getting to that point often requires hour upon hour of solid practice on just a single solo, often for weeks, and by the time I can knock out a reasonable facsimile, I've played the thing so many times I'm absolutely sick to death of the bloody thing and never want to ever hear it again, never mind play it !
Does anyone else get to that point ? :-)
Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine.

There's plenty of gain from all that pain
