OK so that means the 3d is diminished and the 5th is normal and I
assume a flat 7th is added so the spelling is Eb - Gb - Bb - Db - F.
So, since I keep a guitar flat tuned one full step, I capo the first
fret, finger the 5th string at the 9th fret and there ya have it!

Now when I try this tonight, if it sounds good on the guitar, I figure
out how to map my Power Commander so the Comfy Chair (recently renamed
and on-topic for newly trolled newsgroup) puts out the same note.
Yeah baby! I'll repel every vampire in the neighborhood!
