Nice.

We (our band) has a friend that used to be a lounge pianist/singer, and can play just about anything you ask him to. He's VERY entertaining when it's just him. He sat in with us one day at practice and couldn't keep time for ****. The last party we had at our practice spot, he was there playing (there's an old Upright piano) and I hopped on the drums to try and get him to keep a steady beat. It helped a little, but he kept faltering. I think he has a bit of OCD or ADD, and it really effects his performance.

Not sure why I'm typing this, but I thought it might be food for thought, since you mentioned that your new friend isn't 'focused'.
