That is all. :-\
One day and one phrase at a time!
Think of how good its gonna sound when you lay into that reba solo at a gig.
I have a feeling I'll get Fluffhead before Reba, but those (along w/ YEM) are my target list right now. Should only be a year or so before I have them down....if I practice 4 hours a day!
You guys played fluffhead at libbypalooza and I was thinking "I wonder if they will play the whole thing?"
Yeah just a tease, sorry about that! Soon enough though...
Hey just as a headies up, I believe we'll again be doing a Phish tribute @ Boru the day after Thanksgiving, like we did last year. Gonna try to make this an annual thing there. Probably won't be that same band, most likely my current HD line-up.
In my experience the Reba solo is much easier than Fluffhead. I learned the Reba solo in a matter of a couple weeks, then took a couple more weeks to get it up to speed with perfection. Just devote 30-60 mins a day working on little sections at a time. As far as memorizing it, just keep singing each little phrase over and over. Once it's in your head, it'll be easier to replicate with the guitar in your hands.

Walker, that is definitely wrong. It's been a while since I've played it. Never got to the point to get the band to learn it before we stopped playing. I used one of the tabs posted online. The one where the poster says he used a video of 12/31/95 @ MSG to figure it out. There were some mistakes, but i fixed them on my printed copy of the tabs. Unfortunately I can't find it now. I'll do some work on this in the next week and get back to you.
That's what I thought. I found a couple of versions, including that '95 one you mentioned, over at Emil's and I'm cleaning it up a bit before I dive into it in earnest. Here it is, cleaned up to fit on 4 pages, and so far it looks more accurate:
Reba
Phish (Lawn Boy)
Start with F Octaves (repeat 8x)
Eb Bb
Reba sinka boulder in the water
Eb Bb
Reba tie a cable to a tree
Eb Bb Db
Reba stuck in a game of lipstick perfume flypaper
Ab B F# A Bb Bbsus4 Bb
Reba pressa razor to a slide cross a needle with a prune
Eb Bb
Knee deep in the motel tub
Db Ab* G* F#
Reba dangle ladle form her lip dip sip
B E
Reba babble to the nag with the lipstick perfume
D A
Mutter to a farmer in a truck
D E Eb
Take a peek at the cheetah, Reba, cheetah on the prowl in a cage
Bb Eb Bb
Sinka boulder in the water, Tie a cable to a tree
Eb Bb
Mutter "nature" to the nag with the lipstick perfume
Db Ab B
Reba flush a fleshfarm leftover thunder in a circle
F#
Down the pipes
Chorus: (4x)
B F# C# F#
Bag it, tag it, sell it to the butcher in the store
To end the chorus, repeat the F# and B (low chords then high chords),
while the bass walks down F# D# C# B A# G# F# twice
Interlude:
F# B
Reba put a stopper in the bottom of the tub
C# F#
Picked up a jar unscrewed the top and watched it drop into the water
F# B
A little scoop of plaster mix some coffee ground and mud
C# F#
And then she stirred it with the ladle that her Grandmother had bought her
B F#
Threw in a pot of melted wax, a forefoot and a hoof
B C# F#
Apple core, worms galore and a can of some corrosive
B F#
Coconuts and chloroform, some wicker and some cork
B C# F#
Toxic waste, some purple paste, she hoped was not explosive
F# B
Reba dip a ladle for a taste of her creation
C# F#
and she knew that what she made would be the finest in the nation
Repeat Chorus 4x, then walk up, then repeat chorus 4x
Stop in the middle of the 4th time to play this rising riff:

The guitar solo is played in the C dorian scale. For beginners note that this is basically the same as the Bb major scale, but with greater emphasis on the C notes.
End the jam on Eb. Whistle over the Interlude progression, then play the chorus twice.
