The guitar solo easy to play because it is in the key of G.
Just play out of the G blues box.
Here is some of the solo:

|-5-5-5-5-----------5------------------5-5-5--3-5-------|

I know that this is not very much of the solo, but since it is
live, just about anything in the key of G sounds good. So just
make it up.
I only tabbed out the first solo because the second one is easy as well.
