I like all these :) 'Tallica: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=452690758(Marked down invalid but you get the gist of my "ability" heh.) I like the widdley solo so I might give that a few go's in RR. Probably one of my fav' tracks off RTL. Supergroove: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=452690840Thought it would be a lot harder but fell into the groove quite nicely with this, I dunno if I've got some tech issues with my machine but when I was playing this initially in LAS there was a problem with the music, it started out ok volume seemed in check with the bass and music but then the track got really quiet and all I could hear was my bass so I was a bit deaf to most of the track... might be an issue my end though. 'Puter's been playing silly buggers lately. Solid intermediate I think. The Clash: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=452690952great song :) Marked down because, well, I sucked. Will rectify this later. S&G: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=452691007Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Nice choice @@missis sumner :)

Once you learn the basics of this song its pretty easy. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/Orion%20Rhytm%209672_zpstpjiz4sd.jpg

Finally i can recording video with sound of guitar via pedals+RS, without extra actions (it cost a bit noise in final audio). And yet today fixed camera at fretboard. There video result of my new experiments. View of camera a bit dark, unexpectedly evening came. : I forget to say, all crytics is welcome, i hope it help me somthing improve.

More scores! http://i.imgur.com/d3fdv7K.jpg Latsch was right, the guitar volume on this track is deafening to the point you can't hear anything else. I feel like I could have managed 90% on this sightread, except I haven't heard this song since I was a wee lad, and trying to figure out what you're playing when you can't hear anything but yourself is hard as hell. http://i.imgur.com/iomoDLC.jpg New beginner track makes me happy. This is my favourite Metric song. Everybody everybody just wanna fall in love~

This was a test that everyone before me failed, right? Brain fart on my part. Instrumental on RTL is of course RTL :) Meanwhile in alzheimer's land where my elderly noggin resides: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=453009178

Okay, I'm finally starting to get this song to come out of my guitar somewhat like it does in the track! After 10 minutes in RR, I've got the hand positions down, but what makes this song tricky is the inconsistent picking patterns that never quite repeat twice. At least it's short, so there's not that much to memorise. ^_^ http://i.imgur.com/RFT18Di.jpg

I lkie to play this a song, bass and guitar have nice tune. So there updated score for bass (one miss now)m and yet late add link to video, as always with bad beat, It was not very good run for beat but good for score, although I was hoping for 100% :) ) http://i.imgur.com/3a97eDnl.jpg Link to video -->>

good thing rudie can't fail because we are not sure about me lead: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/713038768072801160/6CC297B0E5ABB62B0F8B7B7395E206C7DC93543B/

groovy fun http://up.picr.de/22084284kn.jpg

changes done on version 1.1 @ if you don't like this one octave just go on playing the "easier", but here you have to jump a bit and the octave before the third is a sustain note, that's why I left here to the old, all others changed

it's definitely right. By playing the octave on B (2nd) string make sure to mute the two strings between , because if you play the open strings it sounds really like shit. To mute those two strings more easily play the notes on A (5th) string with your ring finger and flatten this finger a bit more that it mutes the D- and G string (G-string can also be muted by touching it a bit with index), then you can play the octaves on B string with your index. I know that It is harder this way to play the octaves, but I wrote it that way since there are the thirds intevals around there you can play with your middlefinger. We all know how to play the octaves just with index and ring with only muting 1 string in between, but this is just another way to play them. And here it makes sence if you use the fingers I discribed, because you just have to move your hand to the next position for the next chord. If you would play the octaves the other and easier way at this part you would have to jump around with your fret hand. I wrote it that way for a smoother playing and that you guys can learn something new ;). Maybe it would be better just to switch between the ways of playing the octaves one or two notes earlier?

begin lead klaw http://i57.tinypic.com/2j5gfx4.jpg

yes I am and happy as a clam in shit to be here :lol: begin lead: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/713038768075751917/005652CA6CBD9C6A3150780389484779F772183D/

Not much improvement, but it sounds way better now. Lots of misses on the shredding riff, and i have to checkout that solo part on the high frets. Orion Lead cheers

@@Rodman Kaijin is right, you have wrong version, we're using AntonZap's one. Rudie Can't Fail is too difficult for Beginners, but I'll keep it as Beg/Int lead song. There will be 2 winners declared for that song (one beginner and one intermediate). So here comes new but old (as all current beginners did not get a chance to play it back then :D ): Lead: Beginner: Metric - Sick Muse

Played this one 2 more times after this one and got the same results. The easy parts are no problem, but the rest sounds like a 3 year old with a banjo. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/A%20hazy%20Shade%20of%20Winter%2073_zps25hq7blq.jpg And some tallica to feel better about my crappy score. http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/Orion%20Rhytm%2091_zpsqqu3oppq.jpg EDIT: @Rodman It looks like we don't have the same version of Orion. Mine is 3 sec shorter and have a darker album pic.

My attempt, not exactly what i want to get, but seems ok for first of day and long slides. :) http://i.imgur.com/0zCrPbVl.jpg

Rudy Can't Fail seems a little tough for beginners lead with the sliding barcords and frequent changes in position on the neck. Here's where I got after an hour of work. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=452239674 I haven't played the bass part recently but it is certainly advanced http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=452239555 (and fun). Now I have reason to slow it down in RR and learn all of the nuances that I was missing.

Cliff is with us http://i.imgur.com/b7kcCSm.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/nQYrHjh.jpg

Int Bass 97%, 124 streak Might I enquire about my name being in advanced bass with a lil " * " beside it, does that mean I should be playing in that class now or what? Oh pic btw :) http://i58.tinypic.com/24y0fv5.jpg

1st try orion rhy http://i58.tinypic.com/14dlg1c.jpg

First try. http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/544153791712548264/A3255E2F99A304B7D40B819C352C03AEBEA51487/ The blister hurt too much to do anymore.

Thanks @ for yet one cool cdlc, i very like that awesome groove (but can not good to play :) ). Video proof at my terrible timing with Bass, which killed all groove in a song will there a bit late (40min), bcs of Youtube blocked video with Supergroove almost for all country . Score http://i.imgur.com/sLSlUILl.jpg Link to video playthrough https://vimeo.com/129319816

I finally made it through Rudy Can't Fail on lead without getting leveled down on the sections where the bar chord slides into F#m. I'll take the 77% as a good result for now and try to improve tomorrow. Oddly enough, my number of misses doesn't drop by too much when I slow it down in RR. Regardless of the cause, the solution is practice.

Bass - I feel like I did much worse on this than I thought for the last song... A Hazy Shade of Winter - 98% - http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=453059233 Sitting Inside My Head - 93% - http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=453059252 Rudie CAn't Fail - 84% - http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=453059266

so happy it's summer :D a hazy shade of winter: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/713038768076536132/AC4B240FC89028A040CC3A7A721F52FA3BFF8FE2/ subpar rudie but better than the last! http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/713038768076586504/B2B36E9F96224094FB149ABCFB90BFADD62CD77F/

Just did a playthrough of each of the songs. A lot of the selections this week, and I look forward to taking on that solo section of Orion. On my second unofficial playthrough I think I got around 94.5% accuracy. Some of the sections I flubbed definitely look like I should be able to get near 100% on them, but there were a few that I think I'll still suck on even after lots of practice. This was a test that everyone before me failed, right?

Rudy Can't Fail on Bass = 95.78%

I felt like I was channeling Cliff there...so I kind of freaked out... http://s27.postimg.org/uu997in4z/2015_05_31_00003.jpg Also if you use a pick on this song Cliff will frown upon you from his high bass-ic throne

@@Van-Blurten The previous week for Int class, bass was easy, with rate 3, so you still yet in intermediate class. And want to say don`t forget, that we there playing for fun, and communication, digging new interesting a songs. And all our tons rules only how extra motivation, for those who like challenge, and find it more power motive for hard practice. So play all songs that you like, share your score, video, opinion, and all that you want say. Feel free to play what you like, no matter which class. For DHM enough play once and post score of your class.

I think the asterisk means that you've played things in that class but aren't in that class (sometimes in previous weeks) though you aren't in that class. Pretty sure you're still in intermediate based on the Class lists and such. Anyway, party time is mostly over now. Still a bit tired so I probably won't do any serious attempts at this week's songs until I catch up a bit on sleep, but I'm definitely looking forward to this week's songs!

Oh i am very happy with that first on MC lead http://i60.tinypic.com/rw5nd3.jpg

Seems lile my Roadie had failed to delete the old ver.... ;) Thats righter http://i62.tinypic.com/w9v5tw.jpg

@@MaZtoR My score was same at first run, at 3 about 75%, So yet may be you have time for improving sounds and score. Seems Gamut have very big chance to win. It hard for me too, arpeggio almost so hard how fast solo. But at least learnable, and very helpful for skill. Good travel and impressions to you at festival.

http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/A%20hazy%20Shade%20of%20Winter%2056_zps9pw2cksv.jpg We need a new rule. If you score this bad you should be forced into the shame corner and be put back into the beginner class. :blush: I'm going to Sweden rock festival on Monday so i only have tomorrow to learn this song. I highly doubt i can make it sound good.

http://i.imgur.com/bz7QhDQ.jpg Oh god, it's nothing but arpeggios! My bane!

My first go tonight: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKNENOOVNsUUZOZDA/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKRGlKZTRBTnZxcEU/view?usp=sharing I think they're of equal difficulty really - i.e. intermediate, but I haven't been able to try the Clash song, because my converted Mac version of it is causing Rocksmith to crash. :(

I just scored 96.8 something percent on Orion but forgot to take a screenshot. The good news is that I hadn't yet practiced the solo, and judging by the two strikes I got, I should be able to improve there. Hopefully I'll be back in like half an hour with some good news. Then again, posting this might scare @@then3verend, which would be kind of counter-productive. Edit: I am a double dumbass tonight, I guess that happens when I'm tired. I again forgot to take a screenshot, but at least got a vid of the second half. The video is posted below, but the important numbers are Accuracy: 97.67% Streak: 486 Score: 1,117,219 Some ridiculously bonehead misses at times, and I still know I can do better on the solo with more practice (for some reason I can't wrap my head around the triads and such section of the solo at the moment), but I'm definitely happy with that. P.S. be sure to look out for me failing to find the third fret for close to a full second shortly after the solo :D.

the "unusual" way also sounds good, but it needs practice. And it expands your horizon in playing intervals I was going deeper into the song and it is only in a short part of the song, so I will change the notes to index and ring octaves except one, there after the octave directly follows the third and only at this one spot I leave it to the old. No bonus track.

I can change it for you if you want. But I will leave this version for playing as a bonus track for those who want to practice the other way.

@ I would be prefered all this notes to play as usually :) Don`t know how hard will change position, but at least it will good sounds. I`m tried to play as usually this places and not saw very hard changing position, may be i miss this place.

@ Are you sure that tabs correct there? Bcs of it notes (all green notes in double stop) at 2 str same that at 3 str, but sounds like shit in this variant.: http://i.imgur.com/mRKrXWAm.jpg And score there: http://i.imgur.com/OgRJPral.jpg

Asteriks means that it's not your class (it was done after awards were introduced). Lower classes are also depicted with smaller gray letters.

thanks for the Metric pick @@Mortalo. one of my favorite bands! lead (beginner beginner): http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/713038768075174784/1E4055066B4CB43C28C5F28B8A4BE360C034ECA2/

Hey guys, Here's a test version of Focus - Sylvia (B,L). Give it a go and let me know what you think. I believe it works really well now and it's a lot of fun to play. Took me ages though to get the guitar tone and I'm still not totally happy. Maybe I need to play around with some other amps but the Marshall Plex is still a great option. Here's some videos, in case you just want to check it out passively:

Hi, Fripp I saw that earlier today, Plan on working on it this weekend and hopefully figure it out. And I clicked on your frippy customs link and it went to my customs. I like the way it came up so I put the cool link on my signature. Later, avdocatwork
