Intermediate Lead - 81%, 31 streak

I made myself to go through it again. I can't share your enthusiasm :unsure:

Hi guys,

 

Here is my Lead score:

 

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=577961344

I don't have words to describe how amazing was David Gilmour's show

The sound was crystal clear, the setlist was incredible, and David played perfectly

I cried a lot, sang a lot, and damn...it was one of the best nights of my life

MC bass update:

http://i.imgur.com/T2mVv0j.jpgAnd phrase status. Didn't do great for the most part on the slap parts, and missed a bunch of pops for some reason (including some I'm still pretty sure were accurate. Enough to make that 7th phrase, which is part of the finger/pop mix, yellow). Still pretty happy with this, especially as I couldn't practice as much as I'd have liked due to tearing open a hangnail on my middle finger at some point due to the popping.

Here's my results for this week.

 

Mr Jones is a great song, but i always have problems with recognition. The Rhythm part was also a bit to much - I love Rocksmith, but it is a train wreck when it comes to complicated strumming patterns where small changes are made between the strums. I didn't even bother to try to learn them - I played the chords and improvised myself. Pretty decent result any way...  :)

 

Lead INT - 92.15%

 

 

Rythm INT - 81%

 

 

 

Jocelyn Brown was awesome - the bass is really pushing the song and the slap is an important ingredient. Being a beginner on slap bass, I really had to struggle here - and I can admit that not everything was played as directed.

 

Bass MC - 95,18%

 

 

 

Intermediate Lead - 81%, 31 streak

I made myself to go through it again. I can't share your enthusiasm :unsure:

bass is more fun, guitar only if you like it

 

Still, not as much fun as I would like :P

IMPORTANT!

 

 

20 minute warning.

 

 

Week ends at 6pm cet, and the new one starts .......

 

 

NOW ;)

Hi,

 

So how do I register as an intermediate bass player?

 

L

Was hoping to 100% this, but I'll settle for one away :)

 

Can't overstate how much I enjoyed learning this, or how sick everyone else in the house is of hearing me play it !
