You have to be able to key into daves guitar so that you can stick with the timing and anticipate when he switches to 6/8 timing for the "I have no lid upon my head..." part.

Yea, I was just gonna say, it isnt in 5/4. If you play daves guitar part and tap your foot with the song, you get 3 beats per chord. Just cause there is 5 chords doesnt make it 5/4.

Same here. It just seems the most natural way, to me.

Damn, that sounds difficult. Try using your Ring for the bar.

It's not hard. Try it my way, I used to bar with my middle, but found it much easier to do it Dave's way.

i did a very shitty video on my camera to show how i finger it (note: this is MY way, simply because i don't have the strength in my pinky to barre; dave barres it with his pinky). it's pretty dark and you can see my roommate walking around behind me, but oh well

Cool vid, I don't see why pinky barring is so hard for some, not trying to be an ass, but it's not that hard I don't think.
