Throw Away Your Television Solo (Slane Castle DVD) - Red Hot Chili Peppers
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alright I finally put together a tab for this mind-blowing solo since there was such a
demand for it on my youtube video (blastooo). I put some helpful notes here and there and
added the pick direction for the faster licks. Leave good feedback and check out my video.
Practice hard, study the DVD 10 times each day, add some overdrive & reverb to get
that Slane Castle sound, and rip away!
Part I:
For Part I of this solo, just strum constantly and try to attack all the muted bottom
Single pick only the fast licks. On the bends, your fingers will lift up and mute the top
allowing for more dirty attack strumming!
