Excess Baggage


Artist: Staind Title: Excess Baggage Album: MTV Unplugged (2001) Tabbed by: Me (alreadygone@gmx.de) Please read this ! Since Mike Mushok plays a Baritone Guitar I tabbed this out for normal drop-D guitar and I guaratee my tabs are 100% accurate, just play along the dvd and you'll see. The songs I haven't completely figured out yet are "pressure", "It's been Awhile" (which has 3 guitars in it!!!), "cant believe" and "fade". I'd really appreciate it if anyone knows how these songs are played in the unplugged and helped me.
