Im pretty sure theres not a dave song i cant stretch too and play. To me its more fun to stretch after playing dave so much. But yeah getting it to sound real good is another thing

Actualy, the hardest song I played at first was R&R. The hardest song to sing and play was at first was two step. It has an odd strumming and trying to sing at first was hard. I got them down now, though.

He doesn't post things because he's on dial-up. Message him on aim or yahoo messanger and have him play over the talk feature. He's good

tripping billies was the first song learned to play all the way through, the stone is pretty easy for me along with satellite and also warehouse(one of teh first i learned)....the stretch on Crazy is pretty hard, and for some reason i cant get signing down with proudest monkey yet....but other than that ive gotten all the ones ive tried (pretty much all of his first 4 albums, about 60% of his other albums, and quite a few live and covers)

WTWE is easy enough to play, but hard to sing while playing(not playing with the CD).

i just got billies down a few weeks ago... YES! but i'd have to say the hardest one for me to get was stone. i still have trouble singing and playin that at the same time. R&R i got early on back in the day and warehouse was one of the first i DMB songs i got down. BOWA was actually tough for me cause the rhythm gets crazy and it was one of the first ones i tried. no worries though, i got it down.

The only song I have a real problem with playing and singing is Dreams Of Our Fathers. Mostly because of the fast vocals.
