GREEN WITH ENVY ...

“Isee bands doing Greenonions, and I would venture to say that 90 per cent of guitar players play an upstroke [on the percussive parts of the intro], but it’s a downstroke. It’s in the way that you hit it and mute it to get the sound. I’ve seen great guitar players do the same thing – they want it bright so they Bb play it up. I play it the other way. It’s IV to I [ to F], real quick, in the key of F.”
