What DMB song should I play for the Variety Show?

So you're amazed as to how Dave's rhythm guitar slaps and strums so "perfectly"...but you can't. Ask all things about Dave and his guitars here.

id have to keep in mind that many people who arent into dave dont know more than the main stream dave songs.... with that said, if you want to go with something people will relate to and like to hear becuase theyve heard it before.... go with Crash..
if you want to pull at the heart strings of the ladies out there...
go with Christmas song, Lover Lay Lown, Ill Back You Up, Crush
if you want to go with somthing upbeat to get the crowd going...
go with Jimi Thing, Tripping Billies, Lie in our Graves
if you want to go with somthing that will impress...
go with Warehouse


i persoanlly would go with Lie in our Graves or Tripping Billies

i dont think the general audience will be into some of the less popular DMB songs
