Like Flies In The Vasoline

VASOLINE

Super-easy song. Only half the solo will mess you up. Most of the song:

E--1--3--

Repeat.

The chorus:
G--8---------7-6-5-----------
D--8-x16----7-6-5-x16------
A--6---------5-4-3----------

The solo Pt 1:
e---8p7---------
B---------6--6--
Repeat 8 times, finishing off with bend the 6th fret of the B string. It's easier if your index finger is already in position on the 6th fret of B.

Second part is disorienting, but doable:
G----4p0-4p0-4p0---------------
D--------------------5p0---------
A-------------------------2--2----

G---4p0-4p0-4p0----0-5b-----
D-------------------0-----------
A-------------------------------

Repeat twice.
Tomorrow: "Breed" by Nirvana

Spooning? All I Can Do To Get

NEXT TO YOU

This is another solo-less entry, since I can find tabs for it. It does sound like a slide, like it wouldn't be too hard. WAY easier than expected. So, the bassline during the solo is:

D--------5------3---2-----------------7-------5--4---------|
A-----------------------x4-----------------------------x4--|
E--3--3------3-----------------5--5-------5----------------|


The opening/verse is where most of the difficulty occurs. It's very fast:

G--2-2-----------------------------------------
D--0-0---2-2---------------------------------
A---------0-0---2-2-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x---
E----------------0-0-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x---

GAHHH!!!

They're actually making it.

Just when I thought Harmonix would go a different route than Activision with their respecive rock franchises. Alas, all great kings must fall.

The song list:
"Song 2" Blur
"Kung Fu Fighting" Carl Douglas
"Girls and Boys" Good Charlotte
"So What" Pink

This is looking a lot like Guitar Rock Tour but I wonder why they weent with LEGO. I'm putting the stupid label on this one, I hope I'm wrong.

Unlike this:

Oh, How Sweet It Is

Shit, sorry I haven't been posting as much lately. I haven't gotten bored with this at all, it's just that I have a lot going on right now. BUT, I managed to own another song. BTW, this is REALLY easy considering it's up this high.

BALLROOM BLITZ

There's a man in the back who's ready to crack, because it's late, and I gotta million things to do, but this part, the main riff:

D-9--11-12--11--9--
A-7---7--7---7---7--

Not the hardest part. Good for stretching out your hand though.

Nor is it the solo. Just pentonics, nothin' to see here.

No, it's this bit that comes after the bridge:

G---10--8-------------8-----8-10--
D-----------8--8h10-----10--------
A-8---------------------------------

Nice lick, but comes out of nowhere. Easier if you bridge all three strings with index finger.

BTW, "your" DLC song choice is "Thunderstruck" by AC/DC. No-one voted, I decided.
