DriftingByTheStorm

DriftingByTheStorm

lol.
a true rokker you are.

Not here.
Half-queer,
and rockin' out the following (half to appease my girlfriend, lol):
Madonna - Borderline - Sticky & Sweet Tour, Guitar Version
chords
correct, except missing A#5 to B#5 to D5 right before going in to first verse.
otherwise solid, just your typical "misplaced" (poorly timed) chord changes above the lyrics.

DriftingByTheStorm

woop.
then finished up with that,
and saw my quote at the bottom,
and decided i couldn't live without hearing that awesome riff in POWDERFINGER,
so i queued up that one too.
Powderfinger @ Hyperrust

Mmm. creamy creamy distortion. so yummy.

I was just playing harmonica along to "China Cat Sunflower"

haha, imagine that one :wtf:

I really think its time I invest in a different-keys harmonica set and retire this old "Melissa & Doug's" key of C one.

lol. you definitely need a full set of 'em.
Playin in the wrong key, you'll probably end up sounding like the harmonica equivalent of that damn dame (Donna Jean Godchaux) who pretty much fucking ruined the Dead throughout the 70's. Jesus, she was *almost* worse than Yoko.

Currently playing the Japan '77 version of Fleetwood's "Monday Morning" ... fuckin' love the intro. and the solo, while short, really gets me.

Capo on 4.
Just three chords: open position A, D, and E(i throw on the 6 & 7 with my pinky) (played respective of the capo, der dee der)

Solo is pretty easy, although the first part of it (played at open A and D) i am hindered pretty poorly by not being Lindsay Buckingham and failing to have his amazing finger picking skills. Also, fail at having his amazing telecaster. Or his amazing afro. also, he i'm pretty sure (listen to opening chords) is using a smidge of delay.

1st part of solo (notes respective of capo on 4)

crazy pick strumming repeat each "chord", probably picking g and b, then e separately?
can be roughly approximated by using a pick and starting with up strokes.

oh damn no. If anything, it just limits the amount of notes ya can play on it, or how hard it is to find them.

and yes.....damn if the dead weren't most sizzling crackling on just at the times she was most freakin off. wtf?
and she was worse than yoko. yoko did her stuff on purpose :wtf:

sweet with the Lindsey Buckingham stuff....that is not easy

he.who.forgets

after seeing Clapton last night, I immediately came home and started working on Sunshine of Your Love

STAYSEA

Corduroy.

Shonen Knife - Top of The World
b-side, and from the unexpectedly amazing all-covers album, If i Were A Carpenter (i know. i know. i said UNEXPECTEDLY amazing)

tab by this amazing Shonen Knife fan, god love him

Super fun song to just slam out the power chords to.
get your neck and bridge tones set right, and throw the switch between them when you go from the intro (and outro) picking in to the chords, and its great.

DriftingByTheStorm

Dickin around to Iggy's Highway Song

which may have a capo on 2 (or not?) ...
like the totally ripped off Velvet Underground feel of the song... particularly the solo which sounds like it was nabbed straight out of What Goes On.
(truthfully not sure who was ripping off who, lol)
fun stuff to start the day though.

DriftingByTheStorm

Hey Hey My My \ Into The Black
rockin' Crazy Horse version
hyperrust tab for it

crank it loud.
