Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": I'm thinking about getting metal legs. It's a risky operation, but it'll be worth it.

You can find it here....... http://www.dmbtabs.com/video/Billies3.avi Please take into considerations that it is not a very good video. It doesn't fully reflect the tab and is played WAY off tempo. It may help in terms of fingering though. Use at your own risk

Well i'll give you that kanter, it was a bad video. haha. just giving you the honest truth. I know its a hard as hell verse and that its a pain in the ass, but when do you think there will be another one up? And another suggestion while i'm at it: How about a video for Jimi Thing? Thanks man. Bye

I can play it fine...the difficulty is not the issue. As for another video....probably not too soon, sorry to say. When I made those video's I rushed them...played them once through and was VERY nervoius becuase well...I was recording myself for thousands to see. Bottom line, it's not a very good video....but it's NO indication of how I can play that song at all...if you want to hear me play Billies, check out http://www.dmbtabs.com/audio/Billies.mp3 . I did a sweet little extended Nature Intro...enjoy

Quit fibbing, Kanter. Just admit that if *I* made the video, It'd be beautiful, but you're an attention-hungry control freak.

ehh...I've heard better :lol: Seriously, though, did you mean to only strike the intro chords once a piece?

I mean I don't really remember at this point but I would asusme so. It clearly sounds MUCH better if somoene were to be singing to it. The "dead air" would sound much better. I think it came out good. That's what I did a while ago fo the Billies contest...but I never entered. Oh well......enjoy
