Re: So, what is your favorite riff/song to play??

"Limelight" by Rush

Also, pretty much the entire Permanent Waves album.

Lately, however, I've been focused mostly on aimless noodling, so I haven't been playing anyone else's stuff...

Nice choice, I love playing Desperate People. Cool, chord progression in that one.

They are a cool band to see. I wish they would go back on the road. I saw them twice in their day. The first time in '88 in support of Vivid. Saw them in Tipitina's in New Orleans. It was insanely packed (and it is a small place). I fought my way up close so I could see Burnin' Vernon in action. Awesome player in person.

Right now it's Rebel Yell, but kind of my own version which is somewhere between the original and the 2002 acoustic version.

Whether I'm playing for 5 minutes or 2 hours, I can't put down my guitar until I've played Rebel Yell. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Have you caught any of their recent stuff? Just in case you missed it, they released a new studio last year, Collide0Scope. And a live album earlier this year, Live At CBGBs, from back in '89. That was the homecoming show they played at CBGBs after getting back from their support slot on the Rolling Stone's Steel Wheels tour.

There's a live DVD in the works too....
