Metallica – Live Shit Riffs tab

This is the "Walk This Way" riff on the video.  Kirk plays this when James and Lars are battling each other on the drum kits.  James plays the opening to the song on the drums and Kirk kicks it in.

Here are some more Live Shit riffs. These riffs are from the Mexico City CD's. Jason is finishing up his bass solo with Zepplin's "Dazed and Confused" and some other song. Kirk joins in before starting his solo. I've went ahead and tabbed some of Jason's stuff so you can get the feel of the timing and rhythm. "a la Dazed and Confused"

This was taken from the Guitar Doodle part on the Mexico City CD's. Kirk is just making a lot of racket on his guitar and then jumps into "Third Stone From The Sun."

This next section is from Jason's bass solo on the Seattle video. I think it is from "To Live Is To Die." Jason is playing a little rhythm on his bass and Jaymz joins in and then Kirk. All guitars are clean.

ADDED BONUS!!!! I tabbed this new song from the free concert in Philadelphia Nov 11. One of my friends videotaped it and I tried to tab it the best I could according to the video. Kirk was jamming on his guitar making lots of noise and Jason kicks in the opening bass line to Devil's Dance. They used a lot more effects than on the CD so I am going to try to get all the effects in there. The song is in drop D tuning. It's on the Reload CD and I don't think they played it exactly like it is on the CD. I got the lyrics from the CD. Enjoy!!!
