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.

Yeah, Dispatch is fun to play, I love their shit. And (at the risk of having my head torn off and burnt to a crisp) John Mayer's 3x5 is a blast to play, that's what I play whenever I'm sick of not being able to play Dave. It reassures me that I can play guitar. :wink:

I love Dispatch, the general and Elias are my favorite songs to play. Also 3 x 5 is one of my favorite songs to play. In terms of electric playing most anything by phish.

good john mayer tabs are actually really hard to come by. There are just so many sources, and a lot of them conflict with each other. I suggest checking out a few tab sites, and combining what you find until you think it sounds good.

Great phish tab site:

if you're a phish fan and play guitar go there, trust me.
