[dmbjimmy]

can you post an audio version of your tab "Hold Me Down"
i'd like to hear it, thanks

[Ranting Thespian]

sure. I'll do it right now . . off to record.

[Ranting Thespian]

Alright, here you go (it's instrumental too)

Dave plays it much more agressivly and uses more muted strings than I do. I played it like that so you can hear the actual notes played more the way I play it, so it should be easier to learn then.

Enjoy.

ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ok for the 4th time since the begining of october, I will post it. Sheesh! I wish JKanter would just put it up on the site! I submitted it in very early spring, and he still hasn't put it up!


here's an ****ACURATE**** tab for Hold Me Up/Down. I have never found any that come close. There is one that is using only the two String thing he does like the chorus of Tripping Billies. My GOD, that is so horrible! The rest I have seen never come close. Here it is:
