Ah, yes, the midwest emo tuning. Some really beautiful chord voicings are more accessible with it.

And when they finally won the World Series, they celebrated without annoying every other fan in the country."--Jim Caple, ESPN (Jan. 12, 2011) -
Those were the videos I saw on it, but I couldn't find any thing that went too in depth on it. I guess I'll just have to figure it out for myself and make it my ownYou will never understand How it feels to live your life With no meaning or control And with nowhere left to go You are amazed that they exist And they burn so bright

When you barre (or play all the open strings) it's an ambiguous 9 chord without a major or minor third. Opens up some cool chord shapes to mess around with.Join me in the fight against muscular atrophy!

Looking further, theory wise it's very easy to make cool decisions with this tuning. Is there any advantage to it over FACGCE? Which is the same thing but tuned closer to standardYou will never understand How it feels to live your life With no meaning or control And with nowhere left to go You are amazed that they exist And they burn so bright
