My warm up has always been Money by Pink Floyd. Its simple, uses multiple strings, good tempo, and Pink Floyd kicks ass anyway.

No particular song. Just run through a bunch of blues progressions, shuffles.

I quickly play Hysteria by Muse, it's fast, gets my fingers warmed up, and it runs over 3 strings, it's great!

I gave YYZ a try for the first time a few months back and it completely humiliated me. I was like nope, not trying that again LOL
