                               SLAYER:- DITTOHEAD
                               ==================
                                 Tabed by Storm
                               ==================

This is my second contribution to the net...the first being "Axel-F"
I think this is right, but dont blame me if it isn't. I'll be posting the
bass tab for it soon. Also keep an eye out for "Train of consequences"
by Megadeth which I'll be tabbing out soon (I'll also be doing the bass line
for that one).
