I would imagine the least complicated of the above would've been most likely (Em as the opening chord rather than the 'tricky' D#m, possibly with guitars tuned down a semi), but I'm curious to know. I'm gonna assume there were no acoustic guitars onstage either, and just slight distotion on Barney's SG for the rhythm guitar and a little more dist and volume on Phil's bits...?
Anyone? Tim, did you notice? CTB
Wasn't paying that much attention to be honest Wayne, but there were no capos on show during it, Bernard didn't change guitars. I will make sure you get to hear the recording ASAP!
Cheers Tim, I thought it was at least worth asking, but to be honest if I was there I'd have been too busy enjoying it to notice myself. Can't wait to hear the live version of Turn

I wouldn't rule out them having used down-tuned guitars - there were a lot of guitars going on and off the stage, although I can't remember exactly whether new guitars came out for Turn. They could easily have have played it using the same chords as the album version, but using regular tuning. The D#m would sound good on electric guitars as a barred power chord.
