Here's my list

for fingerwork: the Stone

for fingerpicking: Grace Is Gone

for struming: Two Step

for strumming/picking merge: Sattelite

for streatching: Crazy (not Captain)

for just good acoustic strumming: Spoon

for overall: Warehouse

I'd go with warehouse

First of all, when try to insult me with one liners, a mistake saying "your an idiot" is a sure fire way to set yourself up for some posts calling you a dumbass.

Stefan wrote the lyrics and bassline. Can you tell me what is similar to the bassline? Holy batman, Dave's guitar part and the rest of the band follows. Therefore...we can thank Stefan for giving us the Dreaming Tree.

he's right.

but as for the topic, maybe a live song that features solos from all the band members? two step or something?

It's you're, not your. Saying, "your an idiot" is talking about that person's an idiot, which makes no sense. Just your daily grammer lesson

I see a lot of songs which focus on Dave's guitar work, are there any which focus as well on Dave's singing, and the other band members' skills?

all the songs with solos have focus on the other band members skills. unfortunately i cant really think of one with solos for boyd and leroi and have outstanding work by dave. watchtower cp has good work by stefan, leroi, and butch in particular, and dave and carter are solid as usual....and nancies has boyd and leroi solo but not much of anyone else maybe a little carter this is tough...tell this guy to listen to all of their songs.

I'm surprised no one mentioned that earlier. By far I think the song that shows DMB's talent the most is the Dreaming Tree. Just listened to it on the way home and I swear at one part Dave has 4 vocal tracks and they sound verrrrrry cool (especially while high). Such a complex song. Although there are a lot of guests on it so it might not be an accurate description of just the band.

Don't get your panties in a buch too quickly cause this is me poking fun not actually thinking your an idiot.
I just find it funny that you want to have slow sensual intercourse with Stefan Lessard that's all. I should have said that to begin with but idiot was the first thing to pop out.

As for those that want to correct me for my typographical error you can die.

and i don't think you can talk about "that person's an idiot" ... you can "say" that a person is an idiot, or talk about them being an idiot, but you can't "talk about that person's an idiot"
