Visit me! Say hello while you're there!

I'm not a guitar player, I'm a singer! I'm sorry about any mistakes.

This song is not as hard to play as I thought it would be! It sounds so complicated. It's not. Try it. Dave's parts are lots of fun to play. He uses some kind of variable tremolo unit... either a leslie speaker or something designed to emulate it. It sounds great! There are a couple of chords I'm not sure of... can you help?

Hey! And Matt's answer is, "As for that sound dave's always using, it's
a 1957 leslie speaker cabinet."
Yes, it is! And it's very cool sounding! I saw it up close and personal at the Area 51 show! Dave uses a whole array of pedals... one of which is a switch that turns the "leslie" on and off... (a "leslie speaker" for those who don't know is a revolving set of speakers... spinning them makes the tremolo sound... ) he "seems" to just turn it on & off... I didn't notice any variable speed pedal being used to control it. He also uses the same "leslie cab" with keyboard.

Guitar 2 - bridge (into solo):
I'm not too sure of this part. Odd chords are not my strong point. If anyone can get closer...please email me!
There is also a higher note... either another track of guitar... an additional note on this chord... or a keyboard...
it kind of climbs up each bar.

Guitar 1 - solo section:
The only part I'm not sure of is the very end bit... it's kind of buried in bass and hard to hear.

Guitar 2 - solo:
Dave uses the VariableTremolo effect throughout the solo... listen to the CD.

Guitar 2 (3) - last chorus solo ending:
Dave's other track played over his chorus part.
