Kirk plays this when James and Lars are battling each other on the drum kits.

James plays the opening to the song on the drums and Kirk kicks it in.

Here are some more Live *** riffs. These riffs are from the Mexico City CD's.

Jason is finishing up his bass solo with Zepplin's "Dazed and Confused" and

some other song.

Kirk joins in before starting his solo.

I've went ahead and tabbed some of Jason's stuff so you can get the feel of

the timing and rhythm.

"a la Dazed and Confused"

This is Jason's bass line. (4x)

This was taken from the Guitar Doodle part on the Mexico City CD's.

"Third Stone From The Sun."

This next section is from Jason's bass solo on the Seattle video.

I think it is from "To Live Is To Die." Jason is playing a little rhythm on

his bass and Jaymz joins in and then Kirk. All guitars are clean.

ADDED BONUS!!!!

I tabbed this new song from the free concert in Philadelphia Nov 11.

One of my friends videotaped it and I tried to tab it the best I could

according to the video. Kirk was jamming on his guitar making lots of noise

and Jason kicks in the opening bass line to Devil's Dance.

They used a lot more effects than on the CD so I am going to try

to get all the effects in there. The song is in drop D tuning.

It's on the Reload CD and I don't think they played it exactly like

it is on the CD. I got the lyrics from the CD. Enjoy!!!

Solo

Here's the beginning of the solo.

It's not exactly the same as on the CD but sounds a lot like it.

I know the beginning is different because it Kirk uses wah and

the 15p14p13 aren't on the CD.

*tremelo pick this note fast as hell and gradually

bend up a step

Lyrics:

Yeah, I feel you too

Feel, those things you do

In your eyes I see a fire that burns just free to you

That's running through

Deep inside you know, seeds I plant will grow

One day we'll see

The dance come down to me

Yeah come on come on now take the chance

That's right

Let's dance

Snake, I am the snake

Tempting, that bite you take

Let me make your mind, leave yourself behind

Be not afraid

I've got what ya need, hunger I will feed

One day we'll see

The dance come down to me

Yeah come on come on now take the chance

Haha!

Let's dance

Yeah, come dancin'

(solo)

One day we'll see

The dance come down to me

Yeah come on come on now take the chance

Yeah, I feel you too

Feel, those things you do

In your eyes I see a fire that burns just free to you

That's running through

Deep inside you know, seeds I plant will grow

One day we'll see

The dance come down to me

Yeah come on come on now take the chance

That's right

Let's dance

It's nice to see you here

Haha!
