Which tunes do you like to play the least, then?

[Martyn]

Following on from the other thread, which ones give you the most grief to play - those you either forget parts of or just can't get to grip with for some reason?

[wstagner]

This Old House comes to mind, as played on the Life Story CD.

[David Martin]

Anything after 1968!

[rogera]

Equinoxe (Part V)

For some reason I find the timing in that number very tricky.

[MeBHank]

Midnight. It's no problem to get the notes right, but I find sustaining the sliding of certain notes on the top E string a nightmare: if your touch is either too light or too heavy the note dies and the phrasing of the melody is then completely unbalanced.

The hardest tune I find to play correctly in terms of the melody is Stardust. Ridiculously chromatic - you need to know the chords inside out to get it right!

I'm gigging tonight and I've got to play both of those as they're favourites of a couple of people who will be in the audience. Help!

Those I've never learnt or heard of

[Stratpicker]

I have to say HBM's "Hotel California" !!
I have had several attempts at this and ALWAYS get stuck half way through Hanks amazing one and a half minute Gypsy style ad-lib (but I'll bet it wasn't!) section towards the end of the tune. The first section of the ad-lib is fine and then it all goes to pieces.
Still - perceverance is everything!! You never know.

I'd love a midi file for the Final Tour 2004 version. I'd even be willing to PAY for it.
