I also like that there's a couple of good wide open spaces, or you can riff behind the verses if you want to. Use an F# blues scale and you'll find it very difficult to fuck it up.
Holy shit, thanks a lot. Yeah, I had occasionally noodled around on that riff but never took it any further than that. Between my last post and now I've been listening to the song to see where I could add in some things, and you're right, there are some good spots in there. Plus, hey, it's one damn cool song.

Thanks again. Again, with this one I have noodled with the main riff. I could see myself having a lot of fun with it as well.
