Playing this morning brought to my attention a couple of important things. I was up at 5am learning the songs, I listen to them over many times, charted out the parts to help memorize them and felt prepared when I arrived. When we practiced them I played so differently as the original parts just didn't fit. When I'm in these situations I find my playing reduced to the lowest common denominator, basic triads and chords. It always works, always fills the need and becomes the foundation of my parts. My practice should always include these as without triads and chords, everything else would have nothing to build from. I don't ever think the foundations will become redundant.
