Here's the video:

Well, I guess not seeing out-right hatred of the song means it won't be a total failure. I personally think Sum 41, Yellowcard, and Blink 182 are all going to rock 2011! :band:

Question Simple Capo question

Hello,

If I tune my guitar to D# and put a Capo on the first fret, would I then be playing in standard tuning?

Sorry to ask such a simple thing, I would just try, but I don't have a Capo.
