I finally got this down and what helped me was breaking it down in parts and then when it came time to put it together it was pretty easy.

Hey hey hey. I wasn't trying to be attacking or anything. I was just putting in my 2 cents. Play it however you like, and I know dave does it differently sometimes, and that's mainly what I was saying that he does play it the way I do, since you guys shot it down.

There's nor problem here, right guys? :P :wink: :P

Ranting....i think you're right. this whole time i've thought it was three. it doesn't matter to me, i'll still do three. i mean the third one just gives me the sound i like in it. but i have heard him do 3. for sure.

No problem here Ranting :D :D

I think it is great to try to learn it exactly as Dave plays it, I really do. But after I learn it that way, then I do deviate depending on how I feel the music.

The only reason I commented was because I thought we were becoming a little obsessive and anal about the 2 strum, 3 strum thing.
