absolutely brilliant dude, good to see someone who aspires to be a great guitarist like ian d'sa, all you need now is a stage personality! haha i would love to see jesus running up and down playing devil in a midnight mass ^_^
@ooeeooaaaa not to be a dick or anything, but i see you've already crossed that barrier, MUSIC is what you play, not what you read. i cant read sheet music, and i make songs just fine, catchy and even sometimes difficult riffs, songs and solos but i cant call myself a musician because some uptight retard with a holier than thou attitude towards people who dont read sheet music says so?
get a grip, a musician is someone who makes music, with or WITHOUT reading a piece of paper
1. I'm just a bassist and I tabbed out the first lick of that song.
2. We don't even know how long he's been playing... yes it would be pretty difficult to tab out, but that's where talent comes into play. You only need to know a bit of music theory and everything comes easier.. jsut by listening to a you'll know which chords are major, minor etc. then you jsut find the root note.. fairly simple. And Ian's style is basically a melody over power chords.. simple enough
but he plays exactly by the book and he hasn't made one mistake, not one. and he pretty much has covered every song off the album.. wouldn't you do that if you got the tab book?
i believe him. i can play things by ear. its not the exact way ian d'sa plays it (i have the billy talent book) but its the same sound in a diff place on fretboard. i once managed to sequence space dementia on garageband piano by ear, and i sequenced butterflies and hurricanes. Some people have that talent. Billy talent lol. ian d'sa plays things by ear, he said so in an interview
Hah, dude, when I heard the beginning I was like "this is a little to fast" then the bg music came along I was like "Oh, I see..." But u got some talent there (ironically the band)
dude u r an idiot! just because someone is good at somthin like this doesnt make him a fake! hes probably been playin for like most of his life or somthin
no i' m sorry i can't calm down i'm just so exited that i thought it took him months!..of course i didin't think it took him months, i've learnt a couple songs in a couple days by ear. it was basicly a complement
yeah! i've been on there for a while!..maybe not a member for long but i've been getting tabs from there for a loonng time..thats the site i first started tabbing off..when i first started playing guitar!
im not much of a guitar player but i do know that hes not going that fast. hes just playing chords ocasionaly changing the position of his fingers. hes just doing down strokes ocasionaly pulling up with the pick for the fast part. if im wrong i give u the permission to give me shit
Amazing cover. I want to put up some Bass covers of Billy Talent because they are so damn fun to play but I need a capture card. Amazing and probably the best cover I have seen of this song on guitar.
Just practice all the time, that's all you need to do is just play. Whenever your bored, pick up your guitar, when your stressed out, pick up your guitar. Thats how it works. Lessons are lessons sure, but teaching yourself is the best thing any guitar player can do.
no you idoit he's playing the whole thing on his own he's not singing thats why it sounds like ben kowalewicz (yes i know how to spell his last name) IT IS! he just has the music playing in the back so he remembers where he is or so that people arnt like ...i dont remember it sounding like this because some people dont listen to sections of songs at a time!....wow..get smart next time buddy
i can't believe you people havent recognised this yet... IT SOUNDS TOO REAL! the guy obviously just pretended to play guitar and had the music on his computor and just added it in the clip! the singer also sounded just like ben from billy talent. how much of a chance is that? he mightve played the begining cuz it sounded a bit...different.
how old are u people? like 17? u know ur crap, i dont im only 10! for a 10 year old most people would say thats a good guess for what i sayd, next time u see something like that by "Vivalasimpsons" just ignore it!! that will save all of us some trouble!!!
Well obviously dumbass, he does have it playing in the background! Wondering why it sounded like ben? Because it is him idiot! He has it there so it won't be so plain. And you can actually here him play, so don't bitch about him just because you aren't as good as him...
Oh wow you're ggod at the guitar! I wish I could play anything Billy Talent on any instrument lol. I once attempted it on the flute... didn't have any notes so it didn't come out so good.
Not exactly, but it would sound fine if you were using G and Em. I don't know the specific name for these chords. I've tabbed them both for you, enjoy! "triple w dot pastebin dot ca slash 401367".
Thank you so much... I was having trouble figuring out those chords... I Can't figure out the part from like 30 seconds to 37 seconds in this video... can u please tab it for me?! btw I also use a pick.. Ian All The Way!!
What kind of pedal are you using man? And amazing cover btw

1. I'm just a bassist and I tabbed out the first lick of that song.
2. We don't even know how long he's been playing... yes it would be pretty difficult to tab out, but that's where talent comes into play.
