I'm sure you've at least peeked at the tutorial by now .... pretty nice huh? That was one of the first songs I tried on GT. I think it was an excellent song choice for your ensemble. Straight-forward technique wise but it's got a quirky swagger to it that makes it a blast to play.

I got the rhythm parts and first solo pretty much down but I need to go back and work on that 2nd lead section. Are you going to be doing one (or both) leads or is your other guitar playing going to do them?

Haven't really nailed the tone yet either. It's real easy to fall "too" clean or "too" dirty on that one. Kind of like cooking scallops: there's only about a 10 sec window between "raw" and "burned". ( sorry bout that, just came over from my cooking forum:) ).

Good luck. I'd be glad Olekshy was in my corner on this one.
