Lay Down MM

 

really awesome song, only critic i have is on the sound setting in the solo, makes my ears bleed..

Well, hope to post a better score on Walk this Way soon!

 

~cheers

Double gold on Moneytalks.

This song is awesome to both listen to and play.

Kids have been sick all week so have had no time to practice, will try to get on tonight but can't promise anything. I'll be lucky to post any scores for adv or mc as both are way faster than my dexterity will allow at this stage of my learning :)

And that was what i was aiming for :)

Sorry, I didn't mean to "like" that your kids were ill.  :lol:

 

Have a go at Priestess - you're bound to beat my score! 

Heheh Will do @@missis sumner, Really like that song ;)

a little update to ACDC

that's me for now, hope I can get at least 95% it's a kick arse song, can proper rock out to it, but playing it pretty badly :D

Those might be my scores for the week, don't think I have time the next two days:

 

Intermediate:

Lead: 96.96 %

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=347650643

 

Rhythm: 96.81 %

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=347650702

 

Both are so damn close to 97 %... and I think in Rhythm it would have been my ticket to Advanced class... but I'm just to tired to continue :wacko:

Here's an AC/DC sightread. I don't like AC/DC in general, but I especially don't like this song, so I'm probably not going to work too hard at improving on this. Solo looks like it'll take some work.

After not even tying myself twice, I finally stopped in RR to wrap my head around that chuggy verse riff in Aerosmurth. Once I figured out how to anchor and stretch, I could reliably hit all the notes, instead of moving my hand everywhere and dropping half of them! Barred the tenth fret, did some quick pinkie work for 12 and 13, and suddenly it's a breeze.

Yeah this song is tough for those who can't stretch far but this is a great song to practice those stretches.

I love this song and could play it forever, so I'm going to go hard on Priestess this week. And if you want to defeat me, I'm going to make you go hard too. :D

Also, here's a second AC/DC run! The two main riffs in this song are pretty simple, but those solo bends are killing me.

My fingers are tired, perhaps more after a night's rest!

uuuuh yeah :)

Intermediate Rhythm - 96.02%, 69 streak

And that's it. I hit the wall. 96.xx% looks like my limit.

 

Advacned Rhythm - 96%, 201 streak

That's definitely not Advanced level song. I'm tempted to give it 3. What do you think? There are that weird chords, but they're managable. This little slide parts are the most difficult part of the song.

AC/DC update..

 

Rhythm: 92.99%, 72 streak

Lead: 90.39%, 89 streak

Also, here's a second AC/DC run! The two main riffs in this song are pretty simple, but those solo bends are killing me.

 

Of course, it's AC/DC. Always easy stuff except solo ala Angus

I can manage this song fine in 90% speed. But in 100% everything looks like a blur and i get all stressed out.  But I´m prod of myself for manage to handle those 8-13 chords. I did not know i could spread my fingers like that.

 

@@Mortalo i agree that moneytalks rhythm should be a 3. Even i can manage those chords.

just now finished, great fun stuff

added to the list :)

Though transplantations of entire hands have been sucessfully done - you just wont know about the fingerspeed of the donor...

I would say: hands off ;)

It`s poorly, but has not enough time in last days for practice.

There score for bass MC, good line for practice, enough space for improve.
