hardest dave song to play

Unread post by mrjones » Mon Feb 28, 2005 1:49 pm

what is the hardest dave song to play? i heard the stone was pretty hard but after not much practice i gotta down pretty good (i think). i know some songs are hard because of the reach and some are just plain hard. ive heard tripping billies is hard, would you agree?

Well this guy doesn't know any better. But the hardest ones for me are probably the hardest ones for everyone else. Tripping Billies, Jimi Thing, Rhyme and Reason, Warehouse, and the Stone is pretty hard. And I'm talking about playing the songs so they sound like Dave plays them with perfect muting and strumming. But since you're a newbie I'l tell you not to listen to a bunch of people on threads like this cause they'll just brag and try to get attention.

Yeah, TB is a tough one at first, but as with any song, if you practice enough, you can get it :wink: Stay is tricky with the mutes at first as well.

I can agree with that. Just becasue you are playing a simplified version of the song doesn't mean you can play it. Nor does it mean you can play it if you are choppy and miss notes consistently. To be honest I can only play a handful of Dave songs without fucking up something. (Thats why I practice constantly before a gig to ensure I play it right)

I'd say most Dave songs are difficult to master. But to play a knock off it is fairly easy.

I was definitely being sarcastic. Dave doesn't play a single note on his guitar in Grey blue eyes, and DDTW has only four chords, three of which are easy power chords.
