You got it! Looks like someone's being doing their homework for Prof. Jorma's class. Yeah, unless you're in open E (or D), it's impossible to play the harmonics in this tune. But even with the right tuning, it's still a hard song to play.

LOL yes, I've been studying. Also, I'm a drummer, not a guitar player.

Next question. Those of you who remember typewriters also remember a product called White Out, essential when you pressed the wrong key as I often did. The person who invented white out is the mother of the bass player of this band.

This band could be considered as a "one hit wonder". They were formed in Union City, Indiana and had a huge hit single in 1965. That song is the official rock song of the state of Ohio. Another song of theirs was later covered by David Bowie. The group took their name from a B-side song by the Ventures.

Members of the group later went on to be the backing band for Johnny Winter. In 1973, the band's guitarist had a hit single that name-checked a previous band of one of the ABB's founding members. This guitarist also recorded with Steely Dan and others.

On and off sporadically,so if it holds up the thread someone else can continue.In the meantime,

What band broke up mid tour with a note(supposedly sent by fax) that said:

_______,Funny how some things that start spontaneously end that way.Eat a peach,_______

_______ are people's names

That sounds like the note that Neil Young sent to Stephen Stills when he abruptly left the Stills/Young Band tour.
