I suppose as much as anything, this is a desperate Tab plea, but I need and am going nutser for that lightning fast twelve note finger roll on the first major steel break halfway through the song. I can get the notes with a sloppy one fret bar move or two on the last 6 notes, but it sounds more like a roll pattern the way he plays it.

The run leading up to it is fairly coppable, but I'm against a wall.

Larry Bell?

Happy Fourth.

Eric - have you tried one of the computer programs that slow down licks? I use SlowGold to figure out fast licks (both guitar and steel guitar). The break that you refer to is awesome - there is phenominal steel guitar playing on all of Brad's albums by Mike Johnson and Randel Currie.

I should have updated, Niklas Widen replied with a tab that was as close or closer than I'd come. I do have a CakeWalk 2 proggy that does just that, and I was able to piece it together.

On that one there's appearantly no easy way to do the descending run without a couple real fast bar movements like the ascending part.

Check it out in the TAB section if anyone's curious. It's pretty neat.

Hi Eric, I posted my tab of the first "Me Neither" steel solo in the tab thread you started. Enjoy...
