RoboticSithDrone:
Comfortably Numb's guitar solo kicks your ass...

actually, almost any Pink Floyd guitar solo.

Wait, does the entire guitar need to be tuned down, or just the low E string?  I really don't know the song, and have only heard it maybe once or twice (thank god).  Playing a song in a different key doesn't really matter.  Nobody's calling Miles's version of "Autumn Leaves" wrong, even though he did it in a different key.  Plus lots of tunes with vocalists need to be done in non-standard keys, just because of the singer's range.  Of course, if you meant just the low E string, then I think the correct term for that would be drop B.  Correct me if I'm wrong on that one.

beat mouse:
Yeah, it's just drop B, my bad.

ninja edit- i didnt mean renditions/whatever, i just mean flat out playing it wrong. sorry for the confusion

I've never learned either to this day!  My first bass song was...um...*looks at the floor and mumbles* "Smells Like Teen Spirit."

Yes, but think of it this way: It's some 13 year old kid who got his parents to buy him a guitar so he can play a few Green Day tunes and maybe bang some girl. I really don't think he's worrying about the key of Seven Nation Army.
