let's mf go now!!!!

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!!!!

well... that was a hard selection process that week...

i hope it worked out ok.

 

PLEASE FILL THE SONG SELECTION LIST WITH THE SONGS YOU WANT US TO PLAY AND PLEASE RATE THE DIFFICULTIES OF YET UNRATED PATHS THERE.

 

however, a very easy lead beginner song, what is really cool, adv lead has to do easy chord discipline ... until the solo, and MC bass has 2 songs... the one is a B tuning, which some basses dont like - so there is a great bass line from the past - this one will be scored for the 10week lb.

 

have a great week.

I missed the last submission by 8 minutes lol I'll do this weeks right now

Bee in your bunnyyyy not sure if that was the lyrics or not. (first attempt):

Begginer lead

I'll try other a bit later. cheers.

My ratings of the difficulties for the 4 lead paths are respectively: 1,4,5,6.

C# Drop B? Oh boy! Good thing that i have a set of 10-52 gauge strings equipped 

just to join in as i haven't had a 100% lately......bass needs a little bit more work........

 

Drivers seat i sort of get but struggling in parts, but this was harsh to say the least......89%

quite looking the songs so i hope to improve a lot this week.........maybe  :wacko:

Here I go this week. After two weeks because of university, finally I got some time. This song is very easy to play, but also very hard to improve.

I agree with @@Edude15000, this song is a 6, or maybe 5.5

I remember my dad loving this song when I was little.

Goal!!! It's not over yet! :)

I remember my dad loving this song when I was little.

You don't want to go bare arsed anywhere near Epping Forest.  I've been there (not bare arsed), and I know what it's like. :D

Both my bass' hate the MC songs this week and given that I'm having a shit load of problems with my computer as it is ( found out it's a known issue with windows10 and they're still working on a fix for it ), I'm just going to practice Da Capo and the Adv' song... Finding the advanced pretty tricky but that could be because I'm still ill (coughing and trying to read the chart is really flippin' hard)...

 

Plus it's half term this week and I plan on going outside everyday with the kids :)

Cmon Penalties.....

I love it

 

Maybe that CR guy could miss the important one ;)

Shit.  I'm going to bed.

black n blue but first ok score

rhythm inter 96.8% I might rate this as a 3, I could better this score but not get 100%

http://s33.postimg.org/nsfv64aaj/20160529113435_1.jpg

beg lead 100%, good song for early beginners.

http://s33.postimg.org/6kfb0sqhn/20160529110139_1.jpg

lead inter 89%, I think it's a 5

http://s33.postimg.org/ml482rwuz/20160529111233_1.jpg

Slight improvements for today, i actually managed to get a Drivers Seat score with only one cross.......

 

and i had another few goes on the inter Bass, cos i like it  -_- even though my hands are seizing up like an Inter Milan footballers legs.

 

 

more to come on this though i think 100% might not come.........

I start with one song all 4 arrangements, with my selected choice, like usual I transcribed every variation what makes it fun to play

missed one note at bass

http://up.picr.de/25716574ke.jpg

at lead I missed the very last note

http://up.picr.de/25716575nq.jpg

rhythm is a bit harder to get the chords detected

http://up.picr.de/25716576vv.jpg

and the bonus rhythm is a very good practice for the rhythm with only 3 chords but also hard to get recognized by the game, maybe recalibrate the guitar would help

http://up.picr.de/25716577hk.jpg

Did not think i would survive those solos in score attack.  But somehow i did.

And rhythm

Had to try the babymetal song also.  Never tuned my guitar that low before and was expecting a crappy note recognition.  But it was not bad at all with my 10-46 strings.
