Noticeable "Mistakes" on Released Albums
Let me start off saying mistakes is not a bad word by any means in this thread. It's meant to give the notion that these songs are so fresh to the band, and so raw, that things were captured that make the song unique, the energy and adrenaline of something so exciting to the band will overwhelm your ability to completely…

Society
Such a great song. Eddie did a great job on covering this song. He did a great job on the whole sound track. He is simply a musical genius! I'm learning society and was wondering if anybody plays it without a capo. I play it without a capo in the key of B minor and it sounds good. How does everyone else play it?
