This song is not complete (90% done though), so if you have anything to add,
please mail me. Any comments and criticisms are also welcome.
Guitar 1 must have a metal machine-gun right hand to play this song,
so suggest that the guitarists playing this song alternate parts in order
not to die mid-play!!
