Rhythm improvement

Ah so close 90...

Little improvement. I'd like to have 90% of it, but I don't know if I can achieve it.

You're italian and you didn't know this was an italian band, wtf? xd But actually, when I started listening to Riverside, I didn't know this was a Polish band either, because they sing only in English, so I even understand It's nice that the band publishes guitar playgrounds for some songs: e.g. for this one.

Bass

Lead+

Hard to say. For me, in some songs RS recognizes harmonics well and in others poorly. I think it can be affected by used tone, probably quality and settings of the guitar you play also matter.

No problem, I've played at least a couple of your CDLCs and somehow remembered that there's always a lot of slides in there. Maybe it's just because you're doing CDLCs from bands that slide a lot on the fretboard Here I was mainly talking about distant slides (like 19 -> 2), of which there are several in the song, and, for example, this chord slide at the end, where I always get a miss. But don't worry, I've played it now and I'm doing better, so if you think these slides should end at those exact frets, that's fine.

I forgot to add Frozen Crown song as an intermediate bonus in bass path. I updated first post with the selection, tuning is B-Standard but if anyone wants to play for fun, go ahead.

Rhythm

Lead Easy chart, but some weird chords in final part (classic G5 power chord with e string at 5th fret). Simply the best. I was hesitant as to whether this would fit as a difficult beginner, but I think there are some technical licks here more for intermediate level. A nice song with an interesting chart and a short but quite difficult solo. I have some problems with this, because @ Hameron mainly uses pitched slides in his CDLCs, which is often difficult for Rocksmith to detect, especially with long slides or chord slides. I really like this band, especially for their melodic riffs. But this is damn fast...

As promised, I made a CDLC of Tina Turner's 'The Best' song and included it in this week's selection. Other than that, some interesting songs and fun charts to play, so have a nice week! I see that when creating a new week there is an option to level up players. @ bobbyvenice and @ BubbleWrapDragon I confirmed the promotion, do you agree? I did not see the promotion option for advanced class (something doesn't quite work), but I understand that: @ Rodman want to level up to the masterclass in the bass path. Me and @ jellisjenius decline the promotion and stay in the advanced class for the moment.

The last missing song this week. Crazy chart, If you want to play it right with slaps and pops this is GoB.

New week (New era!) of the championship will start in about 2 hours!

As you can see above I was beaten by @ jellisjenius . If I won, I'd consider a promotion, in which case no. If Jellis doesn't want to advance either, I can't let him get bored in the advanced class Besides, at the moment, I think that the advanced class is just right for us.

After a few restarts, I finally got a great attempt! Mission to beat @ Rodman score complete, I can go to sleep.

A little better. 99+

I start beating @ Rodman score. Long way... I'm not sure if this is a real 7 or more like a 6.5. The whole chart has a similar difficulty, but there is something missing that would really cause problems.

Got it! This is max 5 diff and I think everyone will agree.

Lead & Rhythm improvements @ LuZifeR score in this song is from another galaxy. I don't like fighting close to 100% too much, because every accidental miss or unrecognized note annoys me.

@ Rodman If I achieve 99.5+ in 'She's Kerosene' (which seems possible to me) will I be forced to lvl up to the masterclass which I don't want? I'm asking because I don't know if I should take this challenge Also, I don't quite understand your desire to lvl up to the masterclass if you didn't win often in the advanced class and it still seems like a challenge to compete in this class, just like for me and @ jellisjenius .

Bass Super songs to play on bass, great choice for 500 week! I'm not sure if this is the right version, but that's what I had on my hard drive, and I played this for fun. Classic. Cool song in reggae climates, although band 10cc is not a band of this genre. I had a little problems with feeling notes, sometimes hitting too fast. I think we played this not too long ago. Funny bass chart, I'm surprised with such a good score, I started with 97% from the previous playing in championship. Masterclass maybe later, I didn't feel like doing something very difficult.

@ 2groggy started a tribute this week, but I'll try to create a CDLC of Tina Turner song with all available paths. If I make it on time, I'll add them to the selection for the next week. It will be 'Simply The Best' or alternatively 'Its Only Love' with Bryan Adams.
