I decided to do this cover after I saw the Dirty Guv'nahs for the second time last night at the Cox Capitol Theatre in Macon, GA. They rocked the place and I was singing along to this song (most of their show really), and I can't wait to see them again soon. These guys should be known across the world! Here's a link to their music page on their website:

The solo at the beginning was all improv. I never solo, so forgive me for the simplicity and the weak sound. I will probably be working with some of The Dirty Guv'nahs' songs to help me with soloing and such. I used the capo on the second fret because that's what the guitarist did, as I saw. I would like some good feedback on this cover. I learned it all by ear, and this is what I came up with. These guys are really awesome, and I would die if they saw this.
Anyways, I havent really revealed it, but I have used a practice amp for all my covers that I have done. My birthday is in a few months, and I will probably go out and see if I can get something good and cheap, like maybe a 65 watt amp or something. Once I get that amp, I will probably get to harder covers from Nirvana and Paramore, and maybe some Linkin Park. I also am looking into asking for a Vintage Sunburst Epiphone Les Paul Special II (Lefty of course) for Christmas. I want to get it so that I can have a guitar to tune into half-step, D tuning, etc. I need to get a deeper sound too. My Peavy practice amp just doesn't do my Kramer justice. So, new styles are a possibility soon. Also, I may put on a Guitar Hero video sometime, for old time's sake.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy this cover. Thanks for watching! Leave some suggestions, tips, etc. in the comments!
