Played everything in bass for the first time in a while

Is it me or does the Weezer rhythm track get slightly off time somewhere in the middle?

Not sure if this will be my only submission, but I thought I better get it in.

I too discovered Paramore through Rocksmith. I'm right there with you!

only a few passes this week. Biffy Clyro is always a workout. Too fun! My proper bass is in use by my son, so had to emulate it. I'll have to try it when my wayward bass returns next week after the concert.

last minute participation

finally getting this one

My pinky is weak

Just to have something on bass

Not much work this week. So much for posting early.

That is about where I am. I play it more like single notes. I want to just bar the first fret, but there is that open D note, so you can't really do that. I am anchoring my second finger on the second fret of the orange string, and the others move to get the notes. I feel like most of my mistakes are picking rather than fingering. I wonder if fingerpicking would be better for this one. Really great score there, I don't know if I'm going to catch it!

better

Dang dude, you are getting better at arpeggios! Nice score!

This song looks easy, but man, I'm just not getting anywhere!

It is so disorienting when the music slows down and the RS notes don't. Not the best CDLC. Finally got through SA

much better It's like a stoner song done by someone who hadn't tried it. Strange.

Trying to get an early start this week.

Yeah, sorry, I would rather not post at the last minute. I used to play the contest songs every day and posted every improvement. Life has been a roller coaster for the last few weeks/months/years so I'm not playing every day like I used to. I'm still trying to get my dad's estate closed up. I'm almost there, but all the nastiness is coming out since we are at the end. I just want to be done with it. I'd like to get back to posting throughout the week. It leads to better battles, and I think all of us in the advanced class would benefit from the push of competition. I feel like I'm stagnating, so refocusing would help. Hopefully things calm down over the next few months and I can get back to the real important things in life, like playing guitar

I've played this song a bit, but the championships pushed me to a personal best Hadn't played it much on rhythm tho Not sure this song will be in my playlist, but hella fun to play!

My take is this: The only bad band is the one that doesn't put their heart and soul into their music! the creation of art and music is literally reaching into the ether and pulling out something that didn't exist previously. It is the stuff of gods! If you play/sing/create something and it resonates with just one other soul, that is mighty. But there is music out there I don't resonate with, that is for sure!

Rough week, I feel like I missed out on some fun songs. Maybe I'll get some time tomorrow before the new week is up. I really liked Tetris...Spent WAY too many hours playing that on my Gameboy!

I enjoyed this one...it sparked some interesting conversations about copyright and such. I had the best luck with the drop B tuning, but still, just a tough song to play. Why does bass always make more sense? Ah, cause it is the bones of the song. I don't know how I'm not a bass player.
