This is Hot Pants Explosion by the B-52's from the desk of Kyle C. Schnettler

Before guitar enters there should be 2 measures of drum intro.

Guitar enters with this 2 times:

E_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
B_ _ _ 1 _ _ _ _ 1 _ _ _ _ _1_ _ _ _ 1 ! _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
G_ 0_ _ _0 _ 3 _ _ _ _ 0_ _ _ 0 _3 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
D_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
A_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
E_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

The guitar then continues for the rest of the song in the background
as this:


E_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
B_ _ _ 1_ _ _ _ _1 _ _ _ _1 _ _ 3_1 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
G_ 0_ _ _0 _ 3 _ _ _ _ 0 _ _ 0 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
D_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
A_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
E_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 

This should give you the basics now you have to add your own stuff to
give it your own unique sound, just like Fred Schnider.  Some credit should be given to Nathan Bethell (who is almost as suave as Dover.)

Note:  On the recording of this song on the album "Good Stuff" it is the B-52's drummer who played the guitar alone in the studio before the vocals were recorded.  It was then mixed in later.

This is the TAB for the B-52's "Hot Pants Explosion".  It is a classic Fred Schnider tune with great lyrics. (If you want 'em posted Email me)

Here it tis:

You only need to use 2 strings but I'll give you the bottom 4.

Play this twice as kinda an intro during the talking:

E_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
B_ _ _ _1 _ _ _ _ 1 _ _ _ _ 1 _ _ _ _ 1 ! _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
G_ _ 0 _ _ 0 _ 3 _ _ _ _ 0 _ _ 0 _ 3 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
D_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 

Then switch to this for the rest of the song:

E_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
B_ _ _ _ 1 _ _ _ _ 1 _ _ _ _ 1 _ _ 3 _ 1 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
G_ _ 0 _ _ 0 _ 3 _ _ _ _ 0 _ _ 0 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 
D_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
