New Scientist discusses research about EEGs of guitarists who played the same tune together at the same time. Several areas of brain activity were found to be perfectly synchronized between the two guitarists during their performances (watch this video for more.)
Brain areas which became synchronized between the two performers involved included those which control and coordinate motor activity, those which allow us to mimic others and, more surprisingly, the areas that recognize other human beings as individuals separate from ourselves.
