Hardest intro you can play?

So you're amazed as to how Dave's rhythm guitar slaps and strums so "perfectly"...but you can't. Ask all things about Dave and his guitars here.

Not particularly, it takes some work with your fingers to get the muting correct in the verse.
Forget about the reasons and the treasons we are seeking
Forget about the notion that our emotions can be swept away, kept at bay
Forget about being guilty, we are innocent instead
For soon we will all find our lives swept away

OSW isn't too hard, except the instro.

it's pretty much the same cords throught the whole song. with a not-so-hard slide thrown in there.

Don't be so sure, but I strived long and hard and had many a kleenex box session to get that song. Kinda the way I am with punkdafied by Justin King now, And Stream a couple of months ago.

I'm not sure if any Dave intros are harder than the song. Passion intro is difficult for me. I think the OSW intro is kinda hard to get to sound nice, but the positions are really easy and all. This is kind of a strange question actually.

I figure DMB has a lot of intros with just guitar and so if you were to be in a group of friends it would be inmediately recognizable...

OSW is proving to be tough, and I pretty much got Jimi Thing down...

Satellite flows easily now but at first the string skipping was a little tough, now I can play it even faster than Dave (which isn't all that tough, really) and can sing to it, although sometimes when I sing I either don't time it right, or I speed up the riff so that I don't always end up properly.. but it's going

I bet that only a few people on this site can play the Stone like Dave does, and I mean muting everything except for that one note. In my opinion, the Stone intro is very difficult. I can play it, but just not like Dave does.
