Hello everybody! Have a nice week!

First tries on depeche mode

another cool b-line...

Nice tune but very easy, not fun to play.

Would be nice to have this song in Adv class. Fun to play, and not easy :)

not a bad try, very cool, not easy song (diff 6)

Still didn't nailed the solo but hopefully until Friday I'll get it.

 

Updated score after a few hours practice:

A couple of updates, although I don't see me making a lot of progress with either of these.  The Deep Purple song is strange and I just can't reach those longer chords, and the Int song is just too fast for me in the chord changes for both rhythm and lead.

 

Beginner Rhythm - 81.51%

 

 

Int Rhythm - 78.55%

I'm happy for now.

Gave guitar a try today, don't think too much of it but here it is:

and bass, not impressed with it either:

Endicott will take a lot of work in RR to get accurate and then up to speed.  So far, I'm at 95% when at full speed.

No RR for the first part of the song,  you have to learn it all full speed.  I have not learned it very well.  That riff is real hard to sync back up with once you lose it.  Fun old classic rock song once you get it.

Great tune. Quite tricky.

Even if Weak is not out class, we can still have some friendly competition on it.
