how hard is crush?

Well, my title basically says it all. How hard is it to play Crush? I noticed that there isn't much talk about it in these forums. Is that because it's easy or because it's too hard to play

Thanks in advance!

P.S. The reason I ask is because I'm a newbie and I really like that song 8)

it's actually one of the first Dave songs I ever learned - I think its the first full one I learned. Of course I played it all wrong - similar chords but not the way Dave plays it. I eventually learned it the right way and its really not all that hard. If you learn it in sections, I think it'll be easier - I think there's like 4 different sections to it. "crazy how it feels tonight.." "lovely lady, I am at your feet..." "It's crazy I'm thinkin'..." and the jam part. Great fun song to play. It's in Drop-D tuning which may give beginners a hard time.

peace,
Ken

how hard is the strumming in Crush? The strumming seems to be the part that messes me up the most in the dave songs. Thanks!

It's a very, very, very basic song.

I know the date of the first post

It seems that after watching Dave play it on AOL that the hardest part is the palm muting.

when I first started playing dave songs i couldnt come close to playing it.

ive never really sat down and tried to learn it, but I think the rhythym can be tricky if you are starting out with this music and some of the changes are very akward for me personally.

It's hard to find a good tab for it. I've seen 3 different tabs and 2 different videos for it, they all play it slightly different and to me none of them sound like the CD version...

The song it self it's too hard. A few jumps from chords to chords, but the chords and strumming isn't hard at all.

this site's tab is pretty good, i heard they actually looked at the videos of dave playing it, so it's 100% accurate

Pretty sure that's what happened, but you can't always trust rumors you know?
