Any questions, comments, or concerns, you can e-mail me at either

for summer so I might not get to your question
very quickly, but I will still review whatever you may send.

*Triplets end w/ 7th fret on A string, hit it just as
Lars is hitting the second tom on the drums. The string of Es
on the A fret after the triplets coincide with the snare roll,
and the A-Ab-G pattern after goes in with the guitar
and cymbals on drums.
