Crash Into Me...

Post by GrateDMB21 »

I honestly still cant play the "In a boy's dream..." part right; but any other Dave song is easy for me.

Stretching doesnt really bother me all that much anymore. Like the "Captain/Crazy" stretch isnt as bad as it used to be, its kinda comfortable now and I could hold out "Crash Into Me" for awhile, until the "In A Boy's Dream..." part comes up I pretty much just skip that part

I'm still playing it. You have no idea how hard it is to type and play crash at the same time :P

I could play that song forever. My hand doesnt hurt until i stop playing it. A stretch like that is cake.

And I do the In A boys Dream part differently than dave does. A whole lot easier too. Just add the high e string and strum appropriotly (sp?).

If you guys complain about crash.. I'd hate to hear some of your guys' playing =\ Crash is the easiest song in the guitar world..one chord with different bass notes ..

it is just the original stretch is held out longer, and you skip the parts where the bass is open E and the A fretted on two, and then the part with E fretted on four with the A on two.

if that makes sense...i'm tired...long day of finals.
