Don't say it's easy

Well, I read the "Hardest Dave Songs" thread, and I couldn't help but notice some people calling certain Dave songs "easy". That's like a black belt saying a double roundhouse kick is easy. No Dave song is easy (perhaps with the exception of Typical Situation, and even then, singing to it is rather tough). Especially when I read some people saying the Tripping Billies verse is easy. Yeah, easy after loads of practicing!! That riff is just ridiculous, and even more difficult to sing along to.
Just try and remember, ease is not relative.

if you have flexible fingers crash is pretty easy, the strum pattern just takes a little practice... proudest monkey is rediculously easy

i dont know why but i can play billies verse consistently but still struggle from time to time with muting in the typical situation chorus... guess i just never practiced it much

dude once you get it, and once you stop changing your avatar

, you'll wonder why you couldn't get it in the first place. you'll start seeing the same chords over and over. there will still be some really hard stuff, but generally, once you get a couple of the harder ones, you'll get the rest really easily.

yeah, after about 3 or 4 "tough" songs, they all do kinda become easy but until then it is a beeyotch. just keep jammin out and itll fall into place sometime.

I find Crash hard to sing and play to. I dont think Dave songs are easy it all depends where your coming from on experience if all youve ever played before is Metallica then good luck cause your gonna need it. I myself started on Dave and am still Having trouble playing stuff granted that I dont take lessons and I've only played for 6 months. I can get down some of the tough ones but Billies is still a goal for me...

Yeah, I guess Typical Situation is just the easiest song of his that I play. I never bothered to learn Proudest Monkey, or Halloween (which seems to be pretty somple).
