Db Ab Db Gb Bb Eb tuning, this is the new live ending to Faint that LP's been doing since the MTM touring cycle began. Brad's part includes a solo...which quite honestly, I think is a bit overrated. All it is is a tremolo-picked run up a Db minor scale, with a major 7th thrown in at the beginning just to create a little extra tension, and then a few notes that ring out at the end. My biggest gripe about this is that Brad actually plays the entire fast scale run on ONE STRING! What kind of professsional guitar player plays a scale run on one string?! This solo can actually be played without shifting your hand position at all...but eh, I digress. I guess I shouldn't pick on Brad so much since he's new to the whole solo thing. Anyway, after the solo, he plays the same ending part that Mike does, except he deliberately hits the open Bb and Eb strings on top of the D5 chord just to create some dissonance.

I played the solo a tad sloppy, mainly on the last bit of the tremolo picked part, the frets get really close together that high up the neck and my fingers got sandwiched a bit for a split second, but I figured this was a good enough take to upload. I played it the way Brad does...it doesn't match the way he plays it on this particular performance exactly, but he never really plays this the same way twice.
