hey guys, i'm a new poster here, i've been using the site for about a month now and i have to say that it is awesome. well i FINALLY figured out how to do the muting/strumming parts to ants marching instead of just picking the individual notes during the verses and i wanted to know what y'all think. i'm not ready to sing with it just yet so its just the guitar but i would love to know from some more experienced players what they think. thanks everyone

you had a few missed notes here and there. it was pretty good, your rhythm during the chorus was just a little off, sounded like you were tensing up and strumming incorrectly

You left open a few too many strings in the verse, but it's cool.. you'll get it down perfect once you get into the dave style

i thought it was very good for full strumming...keep practising and you'll be famous (or somthing like that)

Very nice on the mutes and slides. I always srtuggle with this song and you play it better than I could. This is one of those songs where what the right hand is doing is harder than what the left is...
