Sonic Youth - Pink Steam Tab

Guitar I  - Thurston
Guitar II - Lee

Most of Lee's (Guitar II) parts have distortion and lots of reverb and most of
Thurston's (Guitar I) have mild distortion. I'm not 100% sure on who plays what
parts but I've done my best to figure it out, it sounds pretty close but email
me or leave a comment if you have any suggestions or anything you think doesn't
sound right.

Edited some parts and the end solo because they didn't sound perfect ;D
