Sheriff Picks: Guitar Tab of Anti-Love Songs
WARNING: This post is not for happily married couples, significant others who merrily hold hands as they waltz down the street, or young lovers who affectionately call each other “princess” and “cutesy face.” No, this post is for those who have recently gone through a messy breakup (is there any other kind?), or are victims of unrequited love – you know, “she’s just not that into you,” – that sort of thing. I mean, I suppose if you’re in... [Continue Reading]
Sheriff Picks: Song Tabs About Brevity
Brevity (noun) – Shortness of duration, especially shortness or conciseness of expression (SOURCE: Merriam-Webster OnLine Dictionary) To be honest with you – and that’s what this whole Web 2.0 thing is about, right? Transparency? – I was at a complete loss when I sat down to write this week’s Sheriff Picks. I had yet to choose a theme or perform any type of research whatsoever. Plus, I was unsure if I would even be able to finish the post without working late. Considering... [Continue Reading]

Sheriff Picks: Song Tabs of Music from the 1960s
One of my responsibilities here at MXTabs.net is to license songs, which requires me to sit in front of a computer all day long performing music copyright research, then entering appropriate information into a database built to ensure that the correct percentage of our site’s ad revenue is being distributed to the correct music publishers. As you can probably imagine, I’ve never really considered this to be the highlight of my work day. After all, it’s detail-orientated, repetitive,... [Continue Reading]
Halloween Tabs and Free Halloween Song Playlist
With October 31st being just one week away, I figured it was high time to bust out a Halloween blog post featuring some of the great, horror-inspired tabs we have available on MXTabs.net. I tried not to include too many ridiculously cliche songs (Monster Mash comes to mind), but instead tried to highlight as broad a range of styles as possible. They all have one thing in common, however: something about each one makes me think of pitch black nights, fallen leaves, evil spirits, and all those other... [Continue Reading]
