I'm beginning to think I need to look a little more closely into Meat Puppets. All three of their songs played at the Nirvana Unplugged in New York performance are second to nothing I've ever heard, and they're even better when you learn how to play them. Plateau does stuff with a G shape I've never thought to consider, and the plucking technique is particularly bizarre. I wish your right hand luck on this one!

Nothing on top but a bucket and mop and an illustrated book about birds.

I've had this phone for two years. But in those two years it's been a roller coaster or emotions. It is currently on 6 percent, and after falling into the water, the charging port or whatever has stopped working. This will be my last song learned on this phone. Such a lonely day, and it's mine. This is the most loneliest day of my life.

ALL of your vids are excellent, but I especially LOVE the Chris Cornell (and the rest of the 90's Seattle scene) tutorials. You have made me learn to re-embrace playing the guitar after a long time of inactivity. Keep them coming!!!!

Hi Ryan, I was just wondering if you could do more songs off nirvanas in Eutero because there aren’t many tutorials for the songs and you’re a great teacher, thanks for everything!!!

This song always seemed just way too out there to attempt to learn. Thanks for breaking it down into manageable parts. Unfortunately though I have started a list of my own now of lessons I need to be sure to get back to as time permits. The boys have started school from home and unfortunately learning new songs has been bumped from its typical high-priority position.

U seem to be very passionate about how the song is played acurately to the very note by the original artist 🎨 I absolutely love that.
