Those Russian girls look pissed off about something.

Maybe because they're always getting press about how they're supposedly lesbian lovers and not about their musicianship.

BTW: that was a good pun about tattoos.

One of my favorite books of all time:

I'm thinking of putting a comprehensive list of every book I've ever read together.

I honestly doubt I could do that. I've forgotten half the books I've read over the years.

Will we be keeping these even after the Christmasy time? I for one vote we do!

Promising? is this new ? ive been out of it for a while.

It's on the Chelsea Walls soundtrack.

I thought it was only right that I posted this:

When did Charlotte Church get HOT? I remember her as a pristine, chubby choir girl.

I want the 12th and final book to come out so I can finally put this god-awful series to rest. I'm a glutton for punishment sometimes...

Well, there you go. Can't ask for a more detailed tab than that.

Well, I could, but in the spirit of the season I'm not going to be an ass.

I just play it as Dm the whole time.

My bad - forgot to paste the chords!

 

They are now at the top of the tab.

Those are some strange-ass chords. Thanks for posting them, I'll try the song out later sometime.

How would one play Aaug, A6 and A6/F#? Those chords with / always throw me.

So I did my job? You're convinced once again that Sara Watkins is a RSGF? That was the goal.

I was convinced long before this thread started that she was a RSGF. I'd particularly like if she were MY RSGF, as I'm now single and like her music.

Oooooh, I love Sarah in glasses.

She's particularly geeky-hot in the one with ukelele. Girls in glasses are cute!

 

Sara Watkins of Nickel Creek

(with her brother, Sean, and this other guy who's kind of good too...)

Those don't seem to be very good pictures of her, unfortunately. The ones from the CD booklets make her eseem extra-hot, but these look kind of bland to me.

My favourite Shakespeare play. Love all the off-shoots like 'Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead!' and the various retellings.

My alias as a college DJ was Rosencrantz even.

good to know

I'd kiss her and the jacket wouldn't even be required.

I don't know much about 80s politics, let alone clandestine Republican politics from that time, so this is an interesting read. Only about 60 pages into it so far.

I play with capo on 4.

Also, I play E during the bridge (I don't get the connection, etc) instead of Em.

Thanks! But Jesus H, that chord is quite a stretch...

It's slightly easier if you use a bar for the A, but yes, it is quite hard.

Thanks! However, how does this fit into this particular song?

It doesn't actually. The concept is the same, however. For the 'Walkdown the low E string (4th to 2nd fret)' based on the A-chord you would play

e -- 0

B -- 2

G -- 2

D -- 2

A -- 0

E -- 4

then

same except for E -- 3

same, E -- 2

For the 'Walkdown the A string (4th to 2nd fret)' on the D-chord you'd play

e -- 2

B -- 3

G -- 2

D -- 0

A -- 4

E -- x

then

same, A -- 3

same, A -- 2

Once you know the concept you can apply it to all the different chords and make it sound all fancy-like.

Please pretend I have no idea what you're talking about, and explain it to me slow...

I'll diagram the chords, maybe that would help.

G-chord

e -- 3

B -- 3

G -- 0

D -- 0

A -- 2

E -- 3

walkdown G to F#

e -- 3

B -- 3

G -- 0

D -- 0

A -- 2 (or 0, depending on how you want to play it)

E -- 2

G to E

e -- 3

B -- 3

G -- 0

D -- 0

A -- 2 (or 0 still)

E -- 0

E-chord

e -- 0

B -- 0

G -- 1

D -- 2

A -- 2

E -- 0

Hope that helps.

This is pretty off topic, but when we talk about a three chord song... in the case of these songs it doesn't seem like they're too boring or repetitive... what's the band doing to keep things sounding fantastic? Also, do they rearrange the order in which they play the chords at any point during the songs??

 

sorry if I sound like an idiot.

For me it's the lyrics that makes the music not repetative. Also, I know with some 3 chord songs (Breakfast at Tiffany's by Deep Blue Something, for example) the band changes the order of the chords from verse to chorus.
