Sympathy for the Devil (minus vocals)

So my band did an impromptu run of this song while my mics were running, having never played this song before. Sure there are plenty of hiccups, but just curious at what you guys think of the mix?

Sounds pretty good. You guitar solo really suits the song.
One thing I noticed : The guitar volume drops a bit when you add some distortion around the 1:00 mark. I think, it should be the same volume as the beginning.
Secondly: The bass is pretty thin sounding. Needs some punch.
Third: Is the vocal bleeding into the mix, or did you just have it mixed very low ?

Thanks man! Someone on another forum told me that the low-mids were pretty weak and the high-mids were pretty high.

What do you think I could do to add punch to the bass guitar? A little boost in the 200 hz range maybe?

And yeah the vocals are bleeding.
