BWAH BWAH! Sorry, Thaiman, the answer I was looking for was 'Austin, Texas'. Thanks for playing.

41, actually. try again in Spetmber.

OK, let me go off and check the answers to these questions (remember that I am a five-day undefeated champeen of Steve Wright In The Afternoon's Big Quiz*)

(*I am not proud of this)

The answer to TM's question used to be olga.net, but I have a feeling it was taken down by the copyright harmless fetishists.

OK, it used to be OLGA, but they have indeed had a cease and desist. They recommend alt.guitar.net newsgroup, but I tend to just google tab for a particular song - which usually takes me to ultimate-guitar.com or 911tabs.com or guitaretab.com - many of which are amalgamations from other sites and have ratings against individual versions.

You should also google powertab, which can be a useful tool for the very best, most accurate tabs, but I don;t think it's free software (though the powertabs are subsequently).

You can't - get a Variax acoustic or a harmonizer that does octave up/twelve string sim like everyody else.

No. Not for the want of trying though. Nor have I ever rubbed another man's rhubarb.
