Honestly? Forget "tabbing", put the CD/mp3/vinyl on repeat and use your ears to learn what you need to. Not only will it make you a better musician in the long run, but you're much more likely to keep the songs in your head then if you had other people doing it for you.

At the very least, try charting out the songs yourself - it's still you doing it, and it's almost as beneficial.

Agreed

but I still think if you need someone to figure out the songs for you.. you shouldn't be in the band in the first place. My 2%
