I find even if you don't play the 8 it still sounds alright. Good luck with it though, it will come soon enough

cock the wrist man. Turn your hand towards the fret board and play using the side of your pinky.

I don't understand, you mean capo at the third fret?

capo anywhere, just moving up the neck changing the key, so the stretches arent so bad. basically slap on the capo and play it relative to where the capo is placed

I've known someone who played capo on the 4th so it was like nothing. I called him gay.

i was blessed w/ large hands so those stretches don't really get to me unless i have to hold them for a long time. like if i hold crash instead of doing the switch that dave does for the entire song, that starts to hurt, and captain is just rediculous

I can do the strech in #41, although is a tough one when I want to jam for a long time.

Never played capitain yet, but sounds terrible.

And crash
like if i hold crash instead of doing the switch that dave does for the entire song, that starts to hurt, and captain is just rediculous


Totally agreed.

me too. but even people with small hands can do it, its just a matter of practice. your fingers will do it one day. happened tome with that stretch in jimi thing (from the E to the E with a G# bass). just decided to do it one day.

i agree, its more about dexterity than the actual size of your hands

I've been playing the #41 with all the open chords kind of like Howie Day's version. I think it sounds a lot better if you're the only one playing. Combining the two is sweet.

im talking capo on first fret. not changing the key, just allowing you to play it easier. you have to make different cords...nevermind
