Re: Bluegrass picking up tempo
The bass player is responsible for his own timing which most often what everyone else follows, it is indeed everyone's job to maintain their own rhythm, the bass player is simply one that everyone falls back on. The whole "letting things get out of control" is unfortunately something that can happen before you realize it. My guitar player gets lost from time to time which drives me nuts but, you learn to work with it.
