Just started playing guitar...

Thin Air 211
Posts: 114
I just started taking some classes a few weeks ago, so i'm not anything great. I think I saw a thread like this a while back what I can't find it anymore. So I was wondering if anyone could suggest some pearl jam (or any band that you think i might listen to?) songs that aren't to hard? I'm running out of this to play!

i asked for this thread to be made a sticky for us beginners so we wouldnt have to keep asking but alas, it was not to be
good luck!!oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.0 -
I am on this board to try to find some easy tab for the new album - came across your posting and can totally empathise! I have been playing for about a year - totally learning on my own - and desparately wanting to play decent PJ.
Small Town is easy
Daughter is easy
Not for You is a good one
and World Wide Suicide is great if you are OK with Barre Chords. PRETTY simple when you get used to it. Actually - if you can learn them, you can play EVERY Green Day song and feel like a champ (along with any other modern band on the radio). New U2 uses a bunch of barre chords too - Edge tends to stay picking notes between the 10th and 12th fret though
New PJ seems to be using a bunch of barres as well. There is tab somewhere for Gone and I played it right through the first time (it wasn't GREAT or anything) but I felt satisfied from it!
Good luck - let me know what you come up with.
Peace!

There's a tab for Gone on Giventowail.com...I tried it. Ick. Sounds like something that's dying.
I need to practice. Although I did pick up the beginning of Footsteps, Sad, and Don't Gimme No Lip pretty good...but I can't seem to get past the intros...anything after that and it gets too much.

but -Bb5- don't work for me0

i try, .but it doesn't sounds good to me
i sure there is a subtle nuance somewhere at this chord0 -
if by Bb5: X133XX

That's Bb5. The only thing to keep in mind is to mute the strings you don't hit in whatever way is comfortable for you when playing a standard power chord.0 -

alive isn too hard althought the solo would be for a beginner"I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"0
