1) Too many to count. Like...all of them almost.
2) The "hardest to play" question has already been done, recently in fact.

all save for the entire YKN (still working on it, havent taken much interest in it until recently).

none are the "hardest", so just involve more practice

many
most
all, Dave's style is so insane that most of his songs seem ridiculous to learn if you arent used to his style. But once you get the hang of his crazy chords, stretches, and rythyms, then you should be able to do most without much work.

i was just wondering to see...
because i dont know many ppl that play a lot of dave songs
i know most of them.
i find playing them is easier than singing them.
im not too good at memorizing lyrics, even my own.

I figured it out the other day and I can play 75% of Dave's songs. Thanksfully I have the more difficult ones down, Stone, Warehouse, Billies, etc. The others I just haven't tried to learn yet.

Yeah, I can play almost all of them too. Just because I did would you should NOT do when first learning guitar...that is just playing DMB. I would recommend learning the basic chords and gradually work your way up if your a beginner, I myself am to big of a davehead to pass up Dave's tunes.

Most enjoyable to play? These come to mind right now, but this list always changes: So Much To Say, Minarets, Louisiana Bayou, Help Myself, and Song That Jane Likes.
......Alpine 2007 coming soon.

Gervais on Rosa Parks "she was arrested but then that law was changed- but she didnt stop there, she started sitting in the seats saved for disabled people. unbelavable, she talked to the driver when the bus was in motion- did she have the correct change ready? - did she bollox!"

Yeh I know all of them except for a couple off of stand up that I have no intention on trying to learn.

My favs to play (as of late) are stone, warehouse, gravedigger, stay, Billies, JTR, Dreaming Tree (I found a new love for this song after listening to the download of them playing it recently on the tour), Nancies (My roommate loves when I do the Central Park intro, he likes the "HHHOOOOKKK me up, bartender please, won't you."), etc., etc.

There were some that were harder for me to learn than others, but once you practice and get them down, it's as if one isn't harder than the other, they all become one almost.

Im pretty sure I have learned them all at some point or another and am confident to play them all. As for me actually being able to remember them...haha no sir. Ill remember a part of every song, but would have to have a quick listen to look at the tab to make sure.
