*************************** END (enjoy it!)***********************
I did it. I finally did it. Well, the transciption of this song has been
especially difficult cause half the song was transcripted without the first
string (thatïs the thinnest). Anyway, I was there, even knowing that I wouldnït
get a good mark in my Literature Theory exam if I keept losing time with this
song. And I see three ways in wich you can pay me my effort:
1)Inviting me to drink a beer(kinda difficult cause most of you are
in another continent).
2)Sending me loads of e-mails telling me how cool I am.
3)(And definitely what Iïd prefer)Tabbing a song from Mourning Widows.
If you have any suggestion,correction, or question to make, send an
email to:
asc12@alu.um.es or nunozowie@mixmail.com
Things Iïve used for the transcription:
-Transcribe! 2.00 (Unregistered version). It slowsdown Wavs. Get it at
www.harmony-central.com
www.seventhstring.demon.co.uk
-Winamp
-Analogx Vocal Remover Plugin for Winamp. Removes vocals. Get it at
