The notes in parenthesis -(0)- in the intro and interludes are made by pulling the slide off the high A and D without hitting the strings. Also, the alternating bass picking pattern on the two low D strings is done by using the thumb to hit all open notes, and the index finger to hit any fretted notes.)
