Mission Riffs
               -------------

This file is a collection of Mission riffs I've worked out, mostly only one
or two riffs per songs. Hopefully I'll work out the complete songs given
enough time and make a seperate .TAB file for each song...
(A augmentedA complete tab for Tower Of Strength should be ready soon...)

If you have any additional riffs, SEND THEM TO ME!
