    People always throw shade at Pete as a guitar player, but I find his stuff mysterious and hard to figure out and play correctly while I've mastered certain other guitar players music fairly easily.

    to save you tuning down if you only have one guitar for the nights gig, use
    1. F sharp open E string, 2. G sharp to A flat chord at first fret with F sharp bass note 6th string & F sharp 1st string. 3. A with G note bass. 4. B chord 4th fret open A string bass.
    Should get you by.

    Surely you have missed a bit out in explaining the intro. When you demonstrate for first time you alternate between hammering E (open) and 5th fret then next time hammer 3rd to 5th fret . This is not in the slowed down playing Am I right or or is my brain tricked by the rhythm. It is the best explanation I have seen but still confused.

      I think a made a bit of a mess up when I edited it.. sorry about that.. I really hope it didn't take away from you enjoying it. sometimes things slip under the radar and i think this was one of those time.. apologies.
