HAVE A GREAT WEEK!!!!

Managed to get through the Lead part on the Jet song with no orange bits, but needs a lot of work me thinks......

 

 

A little improvement:

:D

No doubt Noony will blow this out of the water:

but I'm happy with it. :)

 

I'm feeling cocky, so I'm off to try to play Master Blaster again...

I'm really consistent at 99.21% I've got it two more times after this one  B)

 

God of Guitar is a little bit different this time as after two weeks the winner will be selected based on both lead and rhythm scores combined! :o Why is that you ask? Because we play:
God of Guitar: Orianthi - Highly Strung

Which means Orianthi (on lead?) and Steve Vai (on rhythm?) to master!

Happy playing :)

Lil' update on MC : http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=749254048 will play it again ina bit. Possibly a video depending on appearance being less Norman Batesesque ...

Ugh the GoG song is in drop D... Guess I'm gonna have to go through with the task of restringing one of my hard tail guitars.

 

Highly Strung seems pretty doable though.

@@Mortalo I can´t download "Highly Strung". I've tried a couple of times but always gets an error when the file is downloading

I like this one very much. Many pinch harmonics that I can't do, but who cares :lol:

@@Rodman I think you've got this weeks ranking calculations wrong for the MC lead. I'm pretty sure I should get 12 points for the master mode FC and winning last week.

 

Also Frippchen should get 7 points as he got more points than Smellslikemonkey as well as getting a master mode FC.

Absolutely right!

The MM was marked in the wrong color so the script did ignore those scores - thx and is corrected now!

First try lead when kinda bad.  Sounded like crap and i got downleveled.

Then Rhythm went a lot better,  they are almost the same so i knew what to expect this time.

Hey @@Gamut

I wish you a Happy Birthday, man

have a great one 

   & 

I've been slacking and haven't played any of the Championship songs today.

 

And I think I've got a problem:

@@missis sumner ... what's the problem? I see no problem here  :)

I see the problem Misses S........ too many bloody Basses not enough guitars  :P

I had a couple of hours tonight so i thought i'd have a go at the other songs with varying success.

 

I started with the Nancy song on Lead just to warm me up and get my fat fingers working........

 

 

then flushed with success i went on to the Judas Priest song, on Bass to start with........

 

I have no idea how i got such i high score as i was in so much pain the adrenaline was keeping me going, when i had finished i expected to see raw bone on my left hand where my fingers used to be and my right arm had pumped up like a balloon.

Might not play this again for the sake of my health.

 

however i recovered a bit and had a go at the lead and Rhythm taking advantage of the lack of feeling in my finger tips.....

 

 

it says alright performance but i know he meant twat !

 

Excellent performance my foot !

 

 

All was not lost though as after a nice cup of tea and a cigarette i had a go at the Jet song which i thought was hard but obviously not as hard as Judas bloody finger shredding Priest, i managed an improvement on the Bass   :D

 

 

going to rub a bit of Savlon on my poor fat fingers..... :wacko:

 

night night

In the Jet track there is a sneaky little hidden note that keeps missing. it's not tabbed in the chart (well not to the naked eye) but in LAS it shows up as an exclamation mark between the 219th note and the 221st note... I ran riff repeater and it appears to be right on the very edge of where the phrase breaks to start a new phrase. It's not so much a problem as Missis S' house being built of bass' (Home Bass .), but it's fecking irritating :) especially as I was trying to record a groovy video :)

Vidjo! :) Cheers 

 

played it the first time, so I guess it's getting better
