  1. These last few weeks I've managed to win Intermediate and be at least somewhat competitive in advanced, I've been flirting with the idea of stepping up and it's probably time. I want to thank everyone for this competition, it has forced me to improve as a player and I think I'm ready for that next bracket. I'll go advanced bracket from here on out.
  2. By and large I enjoyed the new Iron Maiden album.
  3. Great week, Mayonaise is perhaps my favorite Pumpkins song. It's tough to pick one! Otherwise I'd only heard Porch and Cast No Shadow.
  4. Whoops. That might be me, my bad! Didn't know lol. I'll keep that in mind in the future.
  5. Classic from my childhood. Super fun song to play, thanks for picking it! Glad some of you enjoyed it. Had a pretty good time with this riff, what'd you guys do for those super fast slides from 20th to 10th fret on the e string? I didn't have much luck with recognition on that stretch.
  6. ELO is a phenomenal band. Bought this album when I was like 13/14. Thought it was great, this caused me to check out their most recent stuff. I haven't listened to them since this album, honestly their new stuff isn't half-bad.Both Metallica and BOC are excellent. No surprise there. BOC is particular is an underappreciated band deserving of more recognition.
  7. Exciting to win Roxette, as mentioned in the last thread it was the number one song in America when I was born. So it feels right! Thanks to all competitors and organizers! Looking forward to digging into this week's tracks.
  8. I just wanted to say, enjoyed the songs this week but this song in particular stands out. It was number 1 on the billboard 100 here stateside when I was born. Cool to get around to playing it.
  9. Wow, feels like it's been a while since I won. I was on vacation last week so I guess I had the time to figure the selections out (except Bryan Adams....). Excited to check out this week's songs.
  10. This contest has introduced me to MCR, I was in HS when these guys came around. I really looked down on their music because of their fanbase (didn't like emos -- sorry to any emos in here). That wasn't fair to them, there's been some of their music in previous weeks and I liked that material as well as this week's song. Way harder than I thought it'd be.....
  11. This Bryan Adams song is no joke, I feel like I'm missing something on fret hand fingering or some crap. Wowza.
