Did you play Drink? That song is really good. Oh yeah. I like that one!
-
a bit of RR...some improvement. It is just so fast!
-
The best part of C# tuning is that it is only a half step away from C standard and lots of Alestorm songs :) Played this twice and then gave into the heavy metal pirate within.

This songs is....well...interesting. The bass seems more difficult than other 5s we have played.

Spreadsheet maintainers, don't think @@ZeroPingNZ got his scores from post #105 added to the spreadsheet. They were added in a reply to my post so it wasn't obvious at quick glance what was quoted and what wasn't. I won't quote the post again lest I add to the confusion :) -

That rhythm score! I'm going to be chasing that down the rest of the week! Nice run! -

This is what I am doing as well. From what I have learned/gathered, you should try to play the guitar lazy, if you can put your fingers in a chord shape or bar it you do. For some reason this particular one fatigues my thumb holding that bar. May just be building my strength back up, I'm not sure. -

And while I was in SA and the bass was still in drop D....I hate to say this, but this song is growing on me. Though I feel like I nail the 7th fret to 2nd fret slides fine for the first part, but then in the middle I start getting misses. Not sure why. -

A little RR and I rushed into score attack...probably too soon. No RR, rushed into score attack....definitely too soon! -

When I saw you picked a Kids in America cover I thought it HAD to be the cover by the Bloodhound Gang given your song requests by them! -

Got some good proper playing in. Sitting on a piano stool instead of the floor, so that's an upgrade. Hmmm....Just realized I was playing my dad's guitar on my grandmothers piano stool. That's pretty cool. Anyway...love the picks this week @@Toni-Wan Kenobi! Kids in America...this version is good, I really like the cover by the Bloodhound Gang tho. Took a few tries to get through Boys of Summer without it leveling me down. Good base to start from I think. The strumming pattern isn't obvious at first (to me anyway), but I think I can do it now. I usually like Leo's covers, but Elastic isn't speaking to me. However, I was thinking of a quote I heard, if you have a drummer and a bass player and you can only keep one, keep the bass player. The bass part is very percussive and keeps the beat of the song to me, so I did get into that aspect of it. -

I'm laid low with the stomach flu, but I have to keep my RS streak alive. Day 308, I played bass sitting on the floor. Not very good... Not as much moving in this one, much better. Hopefully I'll feel better soon and provide some competition. -

Can't seem to improve lead anymore, got a few high scores but not better accuracy. Did improve rhythm tho. -
