Well, like the title says, I am in (desperate) need of a decent tab site. I'm tired of getting nothing but pop-ups and spyware from crappy tab sites. Also, accurate tabs would be nice too! Me wants to learn more songs, so as to impress the ladies and win them over with my mad-guitar skillz...

I know Nico has some guitar players, so: where do ya get your tabs?

Thanks!

http://olga.net is pretty good, the stuff they have is quite accurate.

UG is good too.

http://www.mxtabs.net/

All good, the last two have the most selection, but OLGA is the most accurate generally... or at least, most professional.

Any particular songs/bands you're looking for?

If you really want easy just take a couple chords and put them together. Dashboard actually isn't completely simple... just mostly...

Easiest song ever- Foo Fighters "Everlong"

Drop D power chords almost the whole time, but it sounds beautiful and chicks dig it, so it works.

Actually, I know some stuff that might be easier than that, or not much harder, but the tabs can't be found online... so we'll just leave it alone...

Actually, I think the easiest song ever is Green Day's "Brain Stew". I could probably teach my dog how to play that song. That Olga.net site seems pretty good, at least the one's I've checked out so far. I've been using the UG.com site for awhile, and it seems to work fine.

I'd like to find some tabs for The New Amsterdams (newer CD), Beloved, The Drive, Beautiful Mistake, dieradiodie, Name Taken, and Piebald. I've tried searching for them, and haven't had much luck. I guess it's beacause they don't frequent TRL, so nobody know's them...

edit: Oh, and thanks for all the replies guys!!

beloved - probably the only good band to come out of NC in a while. they are good guys. i think they had some tabs at http://www.punkhardcore.com a while ago. none of their new stuff, though.

Yeah, I was kinda looking for their newer stuff, too. Oh well, I've been keeping it busy with some other tunes. Been jamming along to some Rush, Beatles, ACDC, some other oldies. At least I know I can find tabs to them!

Hey Niconians... I would love it if someone could direct me to a tab for The Get Up Kids "Like A Man Possessed". I've tried looking for one, but haven't had much luck. Hopefully someone can find one!

Please help!
