  • After listening to it a few times I realize that I am playing faster than the backtrack.... I will have to try it again... It does sound out if timing... :(

  • A thumbs up for not adding the extra note to the end of the main riff like everyone seems to like doing.

  • @Damn6Deal6Done6 Thanks!!!!

  • @feedbackboy1: you forgot that a good player don't have to copy a song 100%. A good player plays it based on the original but with his own individuality and fingerprint. Did you hear Gary Moore playing it? If he were still alive will you say him that he's playing it wrong? He brought his own stuff to it and this is the fact!

  • @Bluessoulful Thanks man!!!! Appreciate your comment!!!! :))

  • You tore this song up, dude! Metallica (when they were still good) covered the Liz too, you should learn their version of Whiskey in the Jar, i bet you would destroy it! What tuninf was this song in, E flat?

  • Thanks man, the original tune is in Eb, but this version is in E... it's easier and I didn' want to have to retune my guitar!... Thanks for checking it out.... we'll see if your dad will want to play it!

see all

  • Man, it's fun to hear you playing it! Great! Nice sound. I started playing the song last week. Currently I learn the intro part and that melodic section. Will be a great thing to play :-)

  • @nicoamayab - no its not. Your guitar is in E, but the tune is in A.

  • So good i held my dick during it.

  • You need to work on your timing!
