"I feel like a 12 year old kid with a new guitar!"
I am 66 years young and I still got it! I would have never known this if it had not been for Jamplay! I feel like a 12 year old kid with a new guitar! Ha! I cannot express enough how great you're website is! It is for beginners and advanced pickers! I am an advanced picker and thought I had lost it but thanks to you all, I found it again! Even though I only play by ear, I have been a member a whopping whole two weeks now and have already got Brent's country shuffle and country blues down and of course with embellishments. Thank you all for your wonderful program!

"With Jamplay I can fit in a random session when I have time and I can go at my own pace"
I'm a fifty eight year old newbie who owns a guitar which has been sitting untouched in a corner for about seven years now. Last weekend I got inspired to pick it up and finally learn how to play after watching an amazing Spanish guitarist on TV. So, here I am. I'm starting at the beginning with Steve Eulberg and I couldn't be happier (except for the sore fingers :) Some day I'm going to play like Steve! I'm self employed with a hectic schedule. With Jamplay I can fit in a random session when I have time and I can go at my own pace, rewinding and replaying the videos until I get it. This is a very enjoyable diversion from my work yet I still feel like I'm accomplishing something worthwhile. Thanks a lot, Greg

"I believe this is the absolute best site for guitar students."
I am commenting here to tell you and everyone at JamPlay that I believe this is the absolute best site for guitar students. I truly enjoy learning to play the guitar on JamPlay.com. Yes, I said the words, ""enjoy learning."" It is by far the best deal for the money.
Member Comments about this Lesson
Discussions with our instructors are just one of the many benefits of becoming a member of JamPlay.Great arrangement. Great playing. Keep the hair!
Lyrics seem to be for the shorter TV-edit of the song. Second verse normally goes: Hey little sister who is it you're with? Hey little sister what's your vice and wish? Hey little sister shotgun (oh yeah) Hey little sister who's your superman? Hey little sister shotgun!
get a haircut bro
you got to be kidding.
Spaghetti western aficionado here - love me some ennio morricone! 80s had big guitar... Great work Steve!
Awesome song! Excellent lesson! You even sound just like the dude in the original recording Ha ha. Thanks for sharing your talent. You Rock!
Yeah! You're right! He even looks like him.... :)
Haha, he is the dude off the album!
Thank You so very Much for such a beautifully Constructed Song with an appealing Sound
what do the letters with the square boxes mean
The above comments say it all. What better way to learn these songs than from the Master himself. On my wishlist is the Anthem from Top Gun (yes, I did admit that). The main melody is easy to figure out but the rest is loaded with guitar tricks and tasteful ideas that I hope Steve will share with the rest of us mortals.
What kind of effects are you using? SUch a sweet sound!!
Wow!! Awwesome!! HE explains everything!!!!!!
hey Steve, Janplay should get you to do the whole album Probably increase there subscibtions 10 fold. Love it
I really liked his mention of the whammy bar before I never used mine now I think I might want a guitar with a floating trem since mine is locking now. I was wondering what is the tab for the walk up riff? I didn't see it tabbed out. I know it's third fret e string to fourth fret b string then back to third fret g string then he moves quickly to the second fret and then he moves to fast for me to see what's going on. Also anyone know what GPX TABS ARE?
yes this is so good-
F.,k'n superb! I've signed up to jam play purely because i heard of these lessons. I hope the other tracks that will be added will also include a mixture of his solo and Vince Neil stuff as well.
I paid for a lesson from another online source and man it's totally wrong. I'm so glad I found Jamplay. Getting it direct from Steve Stevens is awesome, can't be wrong now :-)
I disconnected from Jamplay for the summer. Man! Am I glad I came back to this. There's only one thing better, but it doesn't last as long!
A great lesson from the master itself - I love it. And great supplemental content by the way.
awesome!!! next time can you take the tape off of the guitar graphic?
HOLY CRAP!! Freaking STEVE STEVENS - obviously a great lesson. best part - "Billy comes in early in the morning...at like 9:00" ... yessir - that is Rock 'n' Roll. I could listen to him tell stories for hours. Can't wait for the rest of the stuff on the way.
I thought the same :-) At 9 I usally already worked for 2 hours or so. I also love the stories that are behind the songs
Someone slap me!!! I must be dreaming ... STEVE STEVENS ... this was so brilliant! Keep up the great work JamPlay!
Steve, thanks for coming to Jamplay bro! I am really enjoying learning White Wedding and looking forward to many more Billy Idol songs.
Dang... brings back memories of hot summers and vodka watermelons.
I like this song way cool !
Very Cool... a song taught by the guy that actually played it...
One of my favorite Rock songs, very well explained. I might have to try it....YIKES!!!
Since I'm from Europe I'm not too familiar with Billy Idol. Now thanks to JP I'm getting introduced to this song and it has some really AWESOME riffs. Great song and well explained. Thanks Jamplay and Steve!
this is most welcome JamPlay! thanks for the great lesson, Steve! hope to see many more form you.
I like what thesnowdog wrote I feel young again.I grew up with this music.But my real reason to comment is I can't go on enough on how over the shoulder shots have made me learn in half the time cause my brain (what's left of it) doesn't half to translate the old mirror image.Anyway Great job Steve and great job to JamPlay for those cool shots.
Awesome Steve nice to know I have been playing it right all these years ;)
This is one of the songs that started the interest it all for me. God, I love those chords!
I feel young again...
Way Cool...............
were not worthy.....were not worthy
My hats off to who ever put this together. Thanks to both Steve and JamPlay. What a treat
Yes! One of my favorite songs of all times. I'm so stoked to have you here at Jamplay Steve. Thanks for sharing your experience, time and songs with us!
Wow the guys at jam play never stop to amaze me. What a treat that was. I hope they talk you into doing more.
Steve ended up doing a few lessons on song improvisation and then also teaching 4 Billy Idol songs (all to be posted soon)!
