Okay, Les uses a lot of different little things during this one. For
the intro, try doing it with three fingers, or two, as fast as you can.
The volume isn't too high, so you don't have to pluck them too fast. For the
slapping part of the intro, I'm not sure what he does. He either does that,
or strummed. He might use some effect pedal, I don't know.

FRIZZLE FRY from Frizzle Fry (updated 5/15/95)
-----------
Listening to the CD, I've noticed some chorusing, so if you have a bass
chorus pedal, power it up.
note: Ram Samudrala at ram@elan1.carb.nist.gov did the original posting of
this song, from which I reprint this interlude riff:
Intro
G------------|
D-6----------| do this a couple times and then move the whole
A--667h6p-6-6| riff up a minor third (start on the 4th fret on the
E--------8-7-| D-string)
I suggest playing it starting on the G-string, You can get a better sound
that way. Like this:
G-|-1--------------------|-
D-|---1-1-2h-1p---1---1--|-
A-|-------------3---2----|-
E-|----------------------|-
Here's the way I think the rest of it sould go:
P = pop
p = pull off
V = downstroke strum
Intro
V
G-|----------------------7--|-
D-|--7P-0p-0P-----0P-7h--0--|-
A-|-------------------------|-
E-|-------------------------|-
Main riff

That's most of it. I haven't been able to make out the break section at
2:41, there's something for me to work at.

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 PRIMUS 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.
