How long have you lot been playing guitar? I have been playing for about a year and a few months now and i sometimes try to learn solos that i like and sound relativly possible to play but they sometimes end up not sounding the same, like for Metallica Ride The Lightning ,obviously not one for me to learn just yet, but i tried playing the small bit just after he stops doing the hammer on and pull of tapping bit but for some reason it just dont sound anything like it :confused: i suppose its the timming and rhytm but i just find things like that hard to play.

Also i am overloaded with stress at the moment because i have my A level exams on 5 days and i should be revising but instead im dossing on the internet and thinking i want to play my guitar but i want to play sometihng new, and to do that i usually find a song and learn a riff or two from it. But im stuck and cant find anything to learn so the stuff i can play is becoming a bit of a bore to me :(

I want to find a tab for Alien Love Secrets, i think Steve Vai and a load of other guitarist did it together but im not sure. Under steve vai on tab site and on the PowerTab site there is not Alien Love Secrets, i tried searching for it but it didn't come up :'(.

I play heavy mettle and other stuff that i like such as lead parts or solos from old bands or people like meatloaf, led zepplin or acoustic stuff. so can anybody advise me on any songs i could learn?
