COME ON!

solo
this solo really kicks.  the opening riff was borrowed by
pearl jam and can also be seenin the "alive" solo.  Mike
Mccready just moved the riff down on the fretboard
(to start on E).

it is in an Am pentatonic

the start is
\-20^-17----------------------------------------------------------
\----------20^-17-------------------------------------------------
\-------------------17-19-------17----17--19--19^-19^-19^-17-19-17
\-------------------------17-19----19-----------------------------
\-----------------------------------------------------------------
\-----------------------------------------------------------------

the rest is just playing around with that scale

then back to riff 1

your ballroom days are ....
