You guys are making such great progress in here...I'm jealous :-). I need to stop spending time in the forum and spend more time learning new material.

I spent about a month working on Life in the Fast Lane and pretty much nailed it. I still need to get down the variations of the main riff during the phaser part. It's hard to do a performance of this song since there are at times 3 guitar parts overlayed. I think I'll work on putting parts together that make sense for a single performer and see what I can do.
