I too am a campfire hack, but enjoy learning new songs all the time. For some reason, I too can't pin down how to play a lot of DMB songs. IMO, he approaches playing the guitar like one would approach playing Tabla Drums (sort of like bongos, but you use your fingers more). He's very rhythmic, and uses the fretboard in an odd way. By odd, I mean good.
I enjoy listening to him solo or with his band and have for around 25 years, however only in small doses. He is super talented though, and writes great songs.
