I tried harder stuff first, and I really got a feel for Dave's style and abilities. The first full song that I got was probably Crush, Crash, Space Between (standard tuned) and Lover Lay Down (even the chorus). Now I am about 50+ Dave songs deep, and I have been playing guitar for about a year, not quite that long. Peace to all.
I love you oh so well, like a kid loves candy and fresh snow.

i can sing and play it at the same time, but i just have problems staying on key when in the key of B, just a little too high for my voice...

EDIT: and bartender you can play almost as well in standard.
