ahem... nut

I was going to correct him but it seems other people understood him. IM assuming some people dont know what a bridge is?

Its actually the 5th fret, still w the dropD. Great song, even better solo acoustic. So are love song for no one, comfortable, not myself, quiet, and of course 3x5. I actually use the capo for songs that are not originally played w one. but only when it makes it easier to sing and play the song together. Definatley check out damien rice and ari hest if you are looking for acoustic singer/songwriters who like and use the capo alot.
Peace, tim

GoodCharlotte and Simple plan suck. DONOT pay to see this horrid crap. They are ruining the true punk scene with their ridiculously shallow songs,
and their so called "punkrocker fans" - Please

listen to strungout
