    Capo at the 3rd G/C/D maybe an Em in there. I can pick this out in no time. Thanks @stevescookin

    Yeah I don't know why he had it caped, maybe his voice I don't know. There are like a quadrillion songs that are in standard tuning G/C/D so no idea why he would have done that but oh well. Still a good tune and an easy one. I will add it to the arsenal.

    Thanks again @stevescookin

    It's a funny song. I knew you'd like it as well as anyone you play it for.

    The first 1:30 of that scene is LA 182 through east St. Mary Parish, between Amelia and Morgan City. The shots are mixed up (not in the order they would have really driven it), but the tall bridge is over what at the time was McDermott Offshore, where a lot of the biggest rigs in the gulf were built. The curved bridge that they show them entering twice was at the time the only entrance into Morgan City from the east. Not sure, but the final part where they are shot could be LA 70 between Morgan City and Belle River.

    The cafe where the rednecks make fun of their hair is or was in Morganza, LA.

    Maybe this is a better question for the Guitar Players thread but how do you know when to use a capo or not? My brother is into the acoustic singer songwriter thing and he uses a capo on the 3rd fret for every song he plays. He couldn't give me a good answer as to how he knows his voice needs capo accompanyment.

    I have only used a capo on one song and that is because that's the way I saw Warren Haynes play it. The intro sounds better that way but I can sing it either way.




    The only electric blues guitarist I've seen use a capo is Albert Collins. Looks like he capos at the 9th fret but I don't think he is using standard tuning.
