Help with Crash for a newbie

Unread post by Leach » Tue Sep 20, 2005 8:37 pm

I just started playing guitar etc...etc...
I was told Crash is a good starting song so I started there. The part I cannot quite get is the strumming. It sounds like when Dave strums each of the chords he strums somthing else before he gets to the next chord. Is this just TIm I am hearing, or am I not strumming right. I watched the video and it seems like I hear it there to. Is there a special strumming method I am to use hear?

exactly. we can't say it enough. and the posts that don't make sense, well, you'll soon learn to make the jokes. but like he said, if you need help post it, someone will help you.
