"Hook" from Blues Traveler...

Sign in to disble this ad
Okay, so I graduated last Friday, and the cover band I hired to play my party the following day got wind of my awesome playing ability (lol) and has invited me to play at a local outdoor "tiki" bar (Grills in Cape Canaveral) in the middle of June.

They told me to pick a few songs form their list, and so far I've learned "Praise" by Sevendust, and "Hook" by Blues Traveler. However, in the song recorded by BT, there seems to sound like theres a bit of slap-style playing being used throughout the song. (or at least at the end). However, none of the tabs (yes, i read tabs, and tabs only ) have indicated that slap-style is indeed being used.

Could some of you please help me out!?!?! If indeed there is a bit of slap-style being used, I'd love to know what and when. I'd hate to have to download Guitar Pro just to figure out one song.

Thank you so much!
-Ryan.
