[Bass] Dream Theater - "The Dance of Eternity" | Bass Cover with TAB

Thanks to the amazing bass players out there, especially @無色の音色-x8hさん for the amazing performance on the YouTube Channel!! That inspired me to work on this masterpiece by Dream Theater. I cannot play like John Myung or amazing bass players online, but I like transcribing the music so here it is. I first heard this song on the day of the release… October 27, 1999 (album release day in Japan). I still remember how this instrumental brew my mind! Since then, I picked up phrases by phrases, but I thought this is impossible instrumental to play. Now, I tried my best, but of course, this is not an easy instrumental to play… but I am sure the TAB is accurate, especially the bass solo part. (It doesn’t mean I could play it!) For the sake of practice, I have added the bass-less audio with TAB after my performance. Please enjoy playing!
