Ian
*This guitar part is played best on a Gibson SG (Ian's guitar)
 or any guitar that has the 3x3 tuning peg arrangement
 (as opposed to the Fender-style 6 tuning pegs on the same side).
 You play this part by alternately strumming the bottom 3 and top
 3 strings (in groups/pairs) on the headstock, above/behind the
 nut and fretboard.  That's how Ian MacKaye produces that
 "ping-ping PONG, picka-ping PONG" sound during the chorus.
 To tab this experimental technique, I'll use an exclamation mark
 (!) to notate the rhythm of this guitar figure, see below:
