The level of musicianship and the songs we managed to perform demanded that each of us study our parts (practice) before coming together for band &#8220;rehearsal.&#8221; It was incredibly satisfying. I sang lead on several songs (including Bodhisattva by Steely Dan and Money for Nothing by Dire Straits) and harmony on most of the others.<br>Band Mates for The DeVilles:<br>David Gunter &#8211; Lead Vocals, Lead &amp;
