Are there any TAPPING FREAKS out there !!!
Probably there are,so here is a great tapping exercise !

It's the last part of "The Flight Of The Wounded Bumblebee" by
Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme). (intro of "Heman womanhater")

It's basicly very simple, the left hand slides down one fret all the
time while you tap a "melody" with your right hand. 
Practice it first at a lower pace (+/- 180 bpm) until you have it
memorized. Then speed up to +/- 225 bpm. 

Have Fun !!

PS. To play along with the record , tune down 1/2 step to Eb.
  
BTW Has anybody got the first part of this piece ? I think I've seen
    a tab of it in a magazine a while ago. I regret not buying the
    mag but maybe someone who has it can help me out !
