Well... if you're lucky then that might work out, but... last time I went to try and learn part of the Band Of Gypsys album, and he was like 1/4 step down and even then, it wasn't perfectly in tune. So just be careful and don't get discouraged if you try and play along. Especially on live stuff, I think they would just play and tune to each other, so part of the way through the show, they could be in a whole key of semitones. :rolleyes:
