Thanks again for adding it to the wiki, I couldn't do it because I'm not logged in there.
I'm gonna post some more tabs soon, right now I'm tabbing out Billy Fish.

I've been playing for 2 years and 4 months now I guess.

And yeah I know I could sign up but somehow I din't get around to it until now..
So if I sign up there... can I still post the tabs here?

norecess · January 09, 2008, 09:29:44 AM

Yeah sure, you can post them here and archive them in the wiki.

Okay that's it. To be honest, I checked out the wiki and have an account now
but I have no clue how to post tabs and lyrics etc... no clue!
Could someone explain how it works?

Cheers!

Brian wrote a little how-to at the top here.
http://www.themelvins.net/wiki/index.php?title=Category:Tablature

You can preview everything before you save it.

Also, look at other pages, click edit and see how they're done.

Let me know if you get into trouble.

bathroom creep · January 10, 2008, 11:17:40 AM

Okay, I checked that out and I think I know how to add tabs to songs that are already
on the wiki (songs with lyrics). But I don't know how to add new songs to the category
"tablature", for example Billy Fish. I tried to edit it but I could only edit the text at the top
of the tablature page, and not the A-Z song list. How can I add Billy Fish to the "B" section?

By the way, at the moment I'm tabbing out the rest of Dales EP, Annum, Vast Filthy Prison
and Suicide in Progress. Has anyone tabbed them out yet? I couldn't find them here.

norecess · January 10, 2008, 11:39:33 AM

If you read http://www.themelvins.net/wiki/index.php?title=Category:Tablature it says 'If you post new tabs to a song make sure you put the category tag in otherwise they won't be added to this page, add the tag by putting [[Category: Tablature]] at the bottom of the page'. I don't mean to sound like a smart ass, I just found out about it and tried it and it seems to work. I created a new page, Billy Fish, and added the tablature category tag, and it now appears on the tablature page, under the 'b' as it should. I'll let you add the tabs, after all, they're your work

By the way, thanks for contributing to the tabs section! I started to tab the bass part of Anaconda a few weeks ago but got sick and tired of all the work, and never finished it. It's quite easy to play but there are some small subtle differences that are difficult to hear, and I should say I'm a beginner, but better late than never.

bathroom creep · January 10, 2008, 12:43:49 PM

Wow, I did it! http://www.themelvins.net/wiki/index.php?title=Billy_Fish
Thanks for creating that page...

Now can you tell me why it looks different than the Hurter tab? (and any other tab on the wiki?)

I knew I had to put that [[Category: Tablature]] thing at the bottom of the page
but I still don't know how to create a page like that... What exactly did you do?
Boy, I feel stupid. Need instructions.

Yeah no problem, I think it's fun and I just wanted to share my ideas..
When I tabbed out Billy Fish I almost went crazy because there was one bit that I just couldn't figure out!

bathroom creep · January 10, 2008, 05:47:51 PM

All right, I finally found out how it works. It's not even that hard.
Now that I know all about the wiki I'm gonna try to post some more
tabs tomorrow.

By the way I was wondering if there has been an Altamont tabs thread yet.. . .?
I'm tabbing a lot right now so I thought I could post some sweet Altamont tabs.

samo · January 11, 2008, 09:00:47 PM

I was bored so I decided to jot down a tab, will update wiki after posting. Let me know if this is any decent! Thanks
