My guy likes to do the Eyes verse B minor riff.
You gotta fight for your right sometimes
" Yo Dawg - thats my riff ! "

Any other guys experience this phenomenon ?

In my experience... it's usually the inexperienced Jerry who forgets Bobby does anything interesting in one of two ways:
- play so busy that anyone else playing a riff sounds like 5 guys playing lead at once
- does the Bobby riffs and swear it's Jerry. examples: brown eyed women last line of chorus, west LA after chorus, Big RxR Bobby walk down from a bassy F#, Morning Dew Bobby has so many of the tasty parts.

I've played with "Jerrys" who played Bobby's line in China Cat.

I was jamming w some guys last week and we started Bertha
Ive been really into the early ones where Bob is riffing hard and hoping to practice that stuff
The Jerry guy beat me to it though
