Thank you for investigating this tablature. Laughing Gravy's
music represents an eclectic mix of influences, ranging from
punk and heavy metal to brit-pop and euro-dance styles. The
band is comprised of Matthew "Matt" Lanoue (vocals, guitar,
programming) and Charles "Chad" Garland (guitar, bass, pro-
gramming), each of whom attended, and subsequently graduated
from, Western Illinois University (located in the subdued, yet
thriving, non-metropolis of Macomb). Please submit all
correspondence to the e-mail address indicated at the top of
this post.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official LAUGHING GRAVY tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
