a little bit earlier start this week

What a week!  I came home Sunday to my hot water heater leaking.  I had to move my setup and guitars to dry out the carpet and spent the evenings all week replacing the hot water heater, tearing out the cabinets over the hot water heater (because the new one was just and inch too tall), and getting the washer and dryer back to normal.  But the good news is I have hot water again, my setup is re-established, and I just downloaded the new songs today and ran through them.  What a nice selection!

Missed one easy note at the end....drat

@ nlbsmglsk  , @ SpankNass and whoever else got emotionally involved in this and needs closure

I am pretty sure Its an outlet problem, the computer was plugged into that outlet and I think that what made the guitar/cable zap me. I know this because I have a volume thingy (where u twist it to raise the volume but it is seperate from the speakers themselves) and it also zapped me. I need to get an extension cable to test this theory I have just been busy (lazy) with the move and school stuff, hopefully plugging it to another outlet will solve this so i will be able to post more in next week's thread. Thanks for everyone who tried to help! I will try to update for all those who are interested

I try not to offer unsolicited advice, but this sounds dangerous.  It sounds like you might have power coming back through your ground in the outlet or something.  You can get a receptacle tester (something like this https://www.amazon.com/Receptacle-Tester-Klein-Tools-RT210/dp/B01AKX8L0M/ref=pd_lpo_2?pd_rd_i=B01AKX8L0M&psc=1) for about 10 dollars.  Obviously get it for your outlet/power configuration, this one is for US outlets.  I've done a bit of household wiring and these sort of tester devices have saved me a few times.  

What a tough week.  Didn't help that I got distracted building a guitar pedal.

A little better, still can't get those slides

This song is just a long haul

I swear the band put it on loop and went off for a pint without the singer knowing.

Whew....had to try it one more time....saw I was tied with @ Mikson  for accuracy and streak!

Tried to get some serious work in

I second the thanks for @ Mikson , and I love the enthusiasm he has injected into things!

sweet sweet progress

I kinda like this one

Trying to get an earlier start this week

...talking of carpentry...

I finaly got my DIY Bass Kit The neck is already done. Next step will be painting the body...still looking for some good ideas.

I've been thinking of getting one of these DIY kits.  I'd be interested in your thoughts on yours.  What kit did you get?

Not much work this week, fighting a cold.

@ Mikson  You missed a level up.  Someone scored a 99.55% on bass

better

tiny bit better

Those slides.....took a bit

I gave this a few more plays

And more here

And I got stubborn on this one.  Started at 67%.  I wasn't going to let that stand on a song rated 6.  Not quite to @ Anitomer , but I'll try if I get some time.

I felt like I was mismatched for the songs this week.

This one wasn't too bad for me but I saw some struggled with it.  Maybe my focus on arpeggios has helped?

I love this album.  I could happily form a Volbeat western rock cover band and play out my years with nothing else.

Ah...there is the problem, I see now this is a masterclass song rated and 8.  I had it in my head it was rated a 5 and felt crazy.

Ah...the 80's.

Can you play it once?  Yes.  Can you play it over and over and over for seven minutes?  Not so much so.

I've been slacking off this week

Official Tribute.... what do you think?:

We put one into the regular week next week and the running week everyone just posts any Stones score s/he wants!

Angie for advanced.....that one has been on my mind.

Oh yeah!

I get an out of memory error when I'm running the repair utility on large full album CDLCs.  For example, https://ignition4.customsforge.com/cdlc/51473.   I also had this happen on the Metallica And Justice For All full album CLDC.  The log file says:

In task manager it looks like it uses about 1,300 MB of memory which stays allocated after the error.

Is there a way to allow it to use more memory?
