I just close my laptop and it stops the music, going into sleep mode. When I open it up again... the music plays! I find it a reasonable solution until the actual album comes out.

Hey, this is the tab for If I was a tidal wave: (I learned it watching Matt play the song on Youtube) This is my first attempt at making a tab, the basics are in there. I suggest watching this video to get the timing and some of the intricacies right because you can see his hands well enough to tab it yourself. If I Was a Tidal Wave: 2nd fret capo regular tuning or 3rd fret capo if tuned down a step. All chords/fingering is in relation to the capo. C C/B? Am* G C? G? 0 0 0 3 0 3 1 1 1 3 1 3 0 0 2 0 0 2 2 0 2 0 3 0 3 2 0 2 3 0 X X X 3 0 3 Intro/Verse: C C/B? Am* G Hit the root chord to start the first two chords to get the proper effect of the song. (Hit the 5th string on the C and C/B? to start) Am *=Pull-off on the 2nd string ( listen to the song to get the strumming and the timing right) At the end of the G chord play (transition into the C chord to start over the verse) ----- ----- ----- ----- 0-2-3 ----- Chorus:

Sex is taboo remember?

The raise in his voice is just an example of that extra something you get when you seem him live... he occasionally adlibs or adds more emotion to a particular lyric which changes the song often to make even better

Far too somber for the Audio of Being, but a fantastic song regardless...

That's what B-sides are for...

He should cover Nickelback to prove he can turn chicken s*** into Chicken salad.

I have been out of the loop,,, I am so giddy to hear some of these songs...

Consumerism!!

Champions of Nothing is going to be so awesome with a full band... hopefully with Pat on Drums

Vancouver Sept 20th show... should be quite the experience

I hate the edit they did of Born Losers... it messes up a bunch of transitions, and it doesn't cut that much of the song either... why bother? As for a new single... I'd say Champions of Nothing... if GreenDay can have Jesus of Suburbia, a 10 minute song play on the radio in its entirety, then so can Matt with Champions of Nothing

I have started tabbing "if I was a tidal wave" hopefully will get something ready soon

Have seen it like 10 times... fantastic... although I do like "If I was a tidal wave" and "She's in it for the money" better... but still "metal airplanes" rocks...

I reacted in shock and awe for about 5 seconds and then realized he was going to do a solo career from there on... because I thought that he was going to get even better
