The Best Of Times Intro by Dream Theater hey guys this is the tabs for the fast intro that fades in after the piano and acoustic part. it took me a while to figure out and i had to slow it down using the MP-GT1 by so im pretty sure this is correct.

I may edit this after the week of July 26, 2010 because im going to a guitar camp in new CT where i will have the opertunity to meet John Petrucci himself and i'll ask him this song just for u guys!!!! until then, GOOD LUCK www.TAB6.com
