Rocksmith 2014 Championship Week 119

[NunoJBSilva.Guitarist]

Finished with the Rhythm today, going to try to nail the Lead now.

 

Cheers.

I've been working on too many things and not perfecting any of them.  Here is proof of my temporary mediocrity (at least I hope that it's temporary)

 

Heaven =  96%  I'm just not getting the slides right

 

Weak = 97% That riff isn't coming naturally to me

 

Seven Come Eleven = 97% I'm getting up to speed

 

I'll keep working on Seven Come Eleven and start on Endicott tomorrow

Since the song was so short i decided to play it in non stop to minimize the downtime between plays.

But i find the overall score to be weird. I had played it 6 times before with all score over 89% and it still gives me this:

And the first play after gave me this:

I say nonstop is cursed.

I think there might be an error, 98.58 is higher than 98.47

@@fiddlesticks If you desperately want to hit that slide, bend the string at 19th fret or suffer your selection :)

[Rodman]

... :) Joining the championship has been one of the best decisions I've made !

 

:lol:

[FearTheTitan]

I'm doing worse every time on Even Flow and it's starting to annoy me  :angry:. Now my PRS is fretting out on bends above the 12th fret on the high E as well for some reason.

At least I've done slightly better this week on Hotel California

[diddie17]

After struggling with the note recognition on the slides, I finally put together a run that stuck the whole way through.

 

It might have been in my head, but I think the note recognition issues I was having on the slides was worse in score attack than learn a song.  If I went into riff repeater or learn a song, I could get them recognised most times, but in score attack, different story.  I hate posting learn a song scores, so I kept going with the score attack, but if anyone else is struggling with the slides, try learn a song instead, it might be a bit easier to get them recognised.

 

Beginner Lead - 100%

Just a couple of updates atm, I'm going to freebird it this week as I am really not getting along with Even Flow, the intro I got down in a few minutes but the rest of it is just too-damn-fast for me... /shakes fist at Jeff Ament... I am tres` gutted about this as I love Pearl Jam almost as much as I love Rush and Cauliflower Cheese with Bacon Butties, and my kids  :ph34r:

 

Weak: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=613955826  This is one of my favourite Skunk Anansi tracks, me and my mate belt this one out on a regular basis at parties... well she does, I kind of interject with the odd harmony here and there which is not so friendly on the ear :)

 

Seven Come Eleven: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=613956036  this is very fun :) Cute tune  :wub:

[NoonyDeloony]

There is something quite sadistic about Endicott... I hated the track but loved playing it, it irritates the hell out of me but at the same time I can't help bop along to it... I equate it to Big Fun's version of Blame it on the Boogie and re: my weird "button phobia/anxiety"

 

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=613984687 I can do better

I know exactly what you mean.  I really didn't like the song when it first came out, and I like it even less now that I hear the nagging women singing, but there's something oddly intriguing about that strange bass line… :(

[NoonyDeloony]

It's a sign of its time the "nagging women" bit... I'd heard those girls are on Loose Women now :D

Another muting-bending hell...http://i.imgur.com/FwSABVn.jpg

 

PS: changed tuning to Estd(440) without changing anything else. Just to not retune everytime.

[NoonyDeloony]

Depeche Mode: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=614002922

 

Depeche Mode is another staple soundtrack of my youth :) Their newer tracks are still as good as those way back when :) Love this song! Feel so powerfulll!

Yeah! Frippy and I have company. :D

Aw, do you two need a group hug?  :P  All that you need to like this song is a big fruity drink with an umbrella (and a LOT of rum in it) then you can can get up and dance marengey murenge morengay merengue with a scantily clad hottie of your preferred gender. :D

 

[2groggy]

OK I've gotten Seven Come Eleven up to 100%.  I'll still try to improve on my playing - it sounds a little choppy in the faster bits.

 

I've just started on Endicott, and no, I can't be like Endicott yet? Especially not like the bassist.

[fripponomic]

sounds good now

Seven Come Eleven 99.44 : http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=614082999

 

Endicott 97.52: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=614083020

 

So when they pick one of your CDLCs, are you expected to complete it at 100%? Jus' askin'...

Yap, that is one of the most irritating things that i have come along since starting with the CS and being forced to play songs i woudnt´ve - Songs that i ve disliked, hated or even laughed about can be a blast to play :excl: , rarely beloved songs the other way around pull my nerves on the guitar :guardsman: .
