Ants Marching

[i-am-me]

You know the part that goes: G blah blah blah blah D? in the blah blah blah part, how do you play the slide from 5/7 on the D string. Do you hit the string again or just slide from the hit before? i know that sounds really vague but i'm hoping that someone who knows how to play the song really well would be able to crack that code. haha. Thanks

What part exactly exactly are you talking about? (And no that's not a typo...)

[i-am-me]

i got it. thanks anyways.

I just slide.

Thats wierd. I have never once used a slide for the GblahblahblahblahD part. I always position my hands in such a way where it sounds correctly and I can hammer the note with my ring finger. It sounds perfectly right. The slide has never worked for me.

[i-am-me]

I actually really like the sound of the slide. it took me a long while to get it right. but the blah blah blah blah blahs sound really good now. the question that i was in essence asking earlier was "on the slide from 5 to 7 on the D string, do you hit the string again or just keep playing off the earlier hit. and its the latter. i htink. it sounds better that way to me anyways. i'm curious though, how do you do the hammer on davy?

If you're playing with a bass and both the guitar and bass players use slides it sounds cool.
