I had to pick up a guitar and "see" since I just do this instinctually:
bar the B and E with the top pad/3rd of your index finger
Don't roll.

Yes.
You smoosh your index finger into it. Bend your whole hand if you gotta.
Bend your hand so that the side of the index finger (the side that's friends with your thumb) smooshes into the two strings.
Practice just that finger before you add the other two.www.RLMcDaniel.com

Yeah, I do that formation with the tip of my index finger on the B string, and you end up with the pad of the index finger holding down the E string. If you don't get enough pressure on the E string to fret it, then you'll just be muting it, which isn't the end of the world....and if you don't like it, you can suck on an egg.0

The other thing to keep in mind is that it's rock and roll it's ok to sound a little rough....2003: Madison Square Garden 1
