If you want to learn lead, start out with the song Sweet. Awesome chorus, simple solo. Then start advancing into things like Stealing Happy Hours (BEST SONG EVER WRITTEN, IMHO). Use of Time for finger tapping.
Omaha Stylee has a great riff to get your fingers warmed up before you play. I run through it on my acoustic to get my finger loose.
And BigSpeen, awesome logo. I have that hoodie.
Oh, and 311's Transistor CD (one of the greatest CD's ever put I out, I think) has a number of songs with amazing riffs. If you buy Transistor, be sure to get the Capricorn release (check the record label, make sure it DOES NOT say Volcano) so you can pick up the hidden intro. Awesome solo.
Thank you! I wear it everyday. I need to wash it.
