More importantly:

As there has been so much response -

SIDE CHALLENGE REBOOT - Let´s COVER some [22]

Rules? No rules! We pick a song and everybody is invited to share his version. Songs shall be called every week, if you don´t manage to nail your version within the week - entrances are ALWAYS welcome. No winners, no losers, just fun and personal progress, a bit bringing in the harvest of the hard work we all do here every week by converting to own produced music, and (for me very important) learning (easy versions) of songs to be able to play them anytime when a guitar is in the room - and that shall be a part of thinking on the next song selection maybe.

So - as we have Toto - Africa up there, man - how did we never play that in 600 weeks (there has already been a good file all the time, yes)???? - let´s start with that monstersong.
The Adv lead chart is DIFFICULT! do not get drawn away by that!!!! If you like to work on a Rocksmith chart you can use the very cool and EASY version by Weezer: https://ignition4.customsforge.com/cdlc/52747 or the cool Leo version - https://www.mediafire.com/file/cdq4ms1eht31pyp/Leo-Moracchioli_Africa_v1_DD_p.psarc/file oh shoot - i see i gotta reup that as it´s gone missing.

So - again - no rules - take your guitar, bass, acoustic, take the chart or chordsheet you like, strum a quick one or produce a 32track studio version with video and all, doesn´t matter, vocals, drums, piano, alphorns welcome also, any background track or even playing over the song allowed (if you manage to post to show us the result)

Most importantly: have a great week and have fun!

Rod.

Rodman · February 16

not easy that chart, yeah

Rodman · February 16

Rodman · February 16

2 longer pauses, was about to kick it to bonus and replace lead beg, but no - it´s cool to play (3)
Beg players - let me know what you think - keep it?

Rodman · February 16

Rodman · February 16

Yes, baby! Made it straight to my favs to play list (5)

Rodman · February 16

Rodman · February 16

Rodman · February 16

Rodman · February 16

Rodman · February 16

Rodman · February 16

really cool adv bass (7)

Rodman · February 16

it´s just a good song, nice beg bass (3-3.5)

robolechuga · February 16

Nice song selections @ Rodman . Had the old man wake up at 4:30 AM and can't sleep syndrome, so what better than to start the new week the championship and wait for daybreak so I can jump on my mountain bike for my Sunday.

Here are my first two bass scores -

Learned how to replace the default tone using DLC builder this morning also - cause the Orange 50 through a 4x12 was not conducive to the experience. Also, could score better but RS hates my slides, so I switched to hammer-ons to get this score.

AndreCardoso · February 16

Really fun week. First results:

Toto is on my top played songs, but never really nailed the riffs/solos in the bass:

Small improvements:

Vodka · February 16

Have a nice musweek everyone!

Shawn Mendes - Señorita. Lead is easy and nice for beginners. Rhythm... well.. don't have a clue.

Pierce the Veil - Hold On Till May. Hard parts are on site.

Toto - Africa. Anytime playable song they said...

drand · February 16

Yay happy Sunday everyone! Thanks for all the extras @ Rodman , hope you had a good time in the slopes!

Going to give it a shot to try to give a difficulty rating.

I had this song already, I think the lead is a (2) and the rhythm is off my charts.

I wish I could turn off the vocals to this one lol it's a lead (5), and a rhythm (5) for me because of the weird rhythm pattern I haven't encountered before and quick single note and chord combinations are still hard to interpret

drand · February 16

@ Willyam I think the Weezer version of Africa that @ Rodman posted is a great beginner chart, just gave it a try: https://ignition4.customsforge.com/cdlc/52747
