END
Note : Once in a while as you probably would have noticed, drummer's get sick
of playing the same beat the played on an album they recorded a while ago, so
they like to spruce it up a bit, as does Brad Wilk comparing the live performance of Bulls On
Parade on R.A.T.M.'s Home Video and what he played at Woodstock '99. This intrigued me when I
heard this song so I decided to write it out. Here it is.
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 RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE 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.
