Here’s how to play Wipeout, brilliant song on drums as you get to show off a bit.

the version I learned this from played the solo bit for like a minute at the beginning 
of the song, but if you don’t wanna get totally knackered before the song is even done, 
leave the solos till halfway through! I tend to do the solo thing twice but once you’ve 
got the beat and the solos down you can rearrange it and play it however you like

guitar/piano riff bit               x7

Solo thingybob - mess around with what drums you play it on and stuff every time you
do it in the song, it should be done eight times, so maybe play this 4x

or whatever you fancy really

that’s just about everything you need to play wipeout, I’ve told ya the two bits that
need playing but which you start with, how many times you play em, etc is up to the 
preference of yourself and yer band really. 
Good luck, George :~)
