Wot are some cool sounding riffs which give all four fingers some excersise??

These are the ones i can think of...

This ones from master of puppets... you all probly know it already. Its played fast (about as fast as i can possibly manage)
The numbers at top are which fingers i use


- 1 2 - 1 3 - 2 4 - 1 3 0 1 2 2
e:---------------------------------------------------------
B:---------------------------------------------------------
G:---------------------------------------------------------
D:---------------------------------------------------------
A:-------2-------3-------4--------3--------2--2------------
E:-0--1-----0--1---0--1-----0--1-----0--1------------------




This one is easier. Most probly havent heard of the song. Its called 'Le Tristesse Durera'.

Ive tried to rougly show the timing but not not exactly.

1 1 1 3 4 2 3 32 3
e:---------------------------------------------------------
B:---------------------------------------------------------
G:---------------------------------------------------------
D:-----------4------2-------2------------------------------
A:-------------5------3----3-----3-------------------------
E:--3----3-3-----------------------------------------------


Played quite quickly again


I like these riffs cos they train up my pinky. What riffs do you all know that help with the old pinky or even alternate picking???

i just play runs all over the neck for 2 hours a day, then play dream theater for the rest of the day, so that's how i help my playing (and keep up my skills i already have).
