How To Play Rhythm For Please Come To Boston
The song really only has one rhythm pattern once you get past the intro segment. As you'll see in the demo clip, it'ss really just an Dn-Up-Dn-Up steady
shuffle pattern all thru the song. Im playing some Dsus in a few places and doing a complete lift/hammer-on of the D chord with the index and middle
fingers in a few places. I have incorporated a bit of a break and ending pattern riff which is fully explained in the full version tutorial available from
the link above.
