Im working on The Seance by Porcupine Tree on the acoustic.  Im not using tabs or anything and just playing by ear. Ive been playing guitar for awhile but im still not really a "shredder" or anything. I just like to play some good songs that have a lot of diversity and PT is a good band for that :)

Lips of Ashes is probably going to be the next one. Im loving that song!

Yes - Roundabout

And I think I'm going to add a few more Rush songs to my repertoire afterwards. Suggestions?

I finished up Wait For Sleep after playing it for quite a while, and even played it at two or my paino recitals.
I'm gonna move on to more piano-driven DT; Space Dye Vest!  ;D

The Unforgiven(not II or III). Learned it in about 5 hrs. and just need to work out a rough spot in that sequence of triplets right before that repeating 12th fret a minor lick and I should be good.

I dunno if I'd say I'm "working on it", but I've been playing The Shattered Fortress a lot lately. My band's new guitarist and I are also working on a new song with the working title "Paper Pyramid".

I'm currently tabbing out and learning Meshuggah's New Millenium Cyanide Christ and Dream Theater's Overture 1928 on drums, and then importing them into DTXmania.

Attempting to re-learn Another Won on bass.

I dunno if I'd say I'm "working on it", but I've been playing The Shattered Fortress a lot lately. My band's new guitarist and I are also working on a new song with the working title "Paper Pyramid".

Partially co-writing this song (not really though, it's the guitarist's baby) and co-writing lyrics.

You should attempt to learn to not forget how to play songs.
