Rocksmith 2014 Championship Week 273

[ZeroPingNZ]

Late start this week, very busy with work!

Missed one damn note. I think this should be 3, it's very repetitive but when it goes fast, it's hard to keep up with fingers

 

 

This one surprisingly easy but I don't like this Leo guy so won't be playing again

 

I thought (7) would be too hard to try in SA especially that I don't know the song but tried it nonetheless, turned out pretty easy!

 

Improved from 65% (last time it was played, don't remember when) to 72%. It's so weird and doesn't sound interesting to me

 

Easy!

 

 

Will need to practice more but not bad for the 1st time. I actually played the original right before and was frustrated that the tuning is different!

Hey guys, I was only telling meelo just yesterday. That I might have marked Advance Bass incorrectly. 

 

So now consider it a Difficulty 6!

Mkay. I just don't want to play that again. Not even going to bother with practice. I just can't stand listening to this guy. :/

sorry guys! I was actually updating my link to the leaderboard, but it's been awhile since I've done that and forgot how :unsure:, all good now, thanks ;)

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.

Was curious to see what a master class bass track was like, yikes!

[Toni-Wan Kenobi]

@@diceslinger Cool man, glad you an so many others are enjoying them!

 

Never heard the bloodhound gangs cover of kids in America before and I love those guy's! I shall check it out.

[diceslinger]

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!

Here's my first (and probably only) run through for Boys of Summer:

 

 

 

I don't think I had anywhere near the accuracy that is indicated in the score, but there ya have it!

[diceslinger]

A little RR and I rushed into score attack...probably too soon.

 

No RR, rushed into score attack....definitely too soon!

[diceslinger]

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.

[ZeroPingNZ]

Had half an hour today

 

Tried SA for a warm-up, not too bad!

 

 

Played it again, slight improvement

 

Question - how do you play this part? Barre on the 4th fret or keep shifting the index finger between B, G, and D strings?
