Hey there all!

First off, Im new here, I've read the rules so I'm refraining from posting my own music until I get a little more established here.

But to prove my love for the music, this morning I recorded a couple of video play alongs.

First up is Truth. I only learned this song last night, and to be honest im not sure about the correct chords in the middle after the final riffy bit, but i tried my best. Note that I play along to the DTB video version, as its slightly slower than the infinity version. Please ignore the shit at the end, i didnt want to let go of the guitar to press stop on the camera! lol!

Next up is a few songs from teh SYL album, which I learned a few years ago when the album came out. I havnt played these tracks on guitar for a long time, so forgive my sloppyness! Also, in the second video I got a bit carried away. Adrenaline pumping and what not. Some great guitar faces there. I'll regret putting this online one day. Probably later this afternoon to be honest lol!

A little later on, im not happy with my camera, so i sold my soul to satan by using a mac, due to its better camera ;)
I felt it was time to play something from city :) Adrenalin is really pumping now :) feel free to have a good laugh! :P

Enjoy, and Thanks for the music and the inspiration, Mr. Townsend! :D

thanks!

that's also a reason that little bit is great for practise because is combined the sweeping and alternate. It's a really good workout and I'm entirely positive you could do it too, just start slowly and work up with a metronome

i didnt use any tabs, i used various videos of dev and other people playing it to learn the notes, and my ears to correct little mistakes i made from watching people who arnt dev playing it.

im sure there might be a guitar pro tab out there though, although that is a commercial product, so i never used it.
