poor Noony 

wish you the best to get your wrist ok, you don't wanna miss week 150

 

 

I don't know if you've got a sarcastic note or enthusiastic tone to your post there... either way I'd like to see if it's going to be an amazing week or a poo week and would like to take part still :) Turns out I have tendinitis and I've been prescribed slightly stronger pain meds and bequeathed a Gauntlet of Rock, which is beige, and I can only presume, belonged to Nickelback. 

 

Behold the Gauntlet of Rock! (sorry for the big photo)

Well @Noony, it will be a heck of a week. Hope that infinity gauntlet of yours will give you power just like it gave it to Thanos ;)

Still looking cool with a NHS strap, even managed to get the Jack Daniels bottle in the pic hahaha

 

i've had tendinitis before....ouchie

 

hope you get better soon 

@Deloon - goddamit ... just make sure it doesn´t become chronical - better take those antiinflam. meds regullarly as prescribed and take some H2 blockers for your stomach (esp. in case you consider attending Dr. JD for additional pain management ;) ) and make sure your wrist is nonflexible in your device when trying to play. Best of luck.

Hello all new players! Great that you are here!!!!!

@@Fraggle Baggle - 38 plays - thats EXACTLY what i wanna see!!! Keep that spirit up!

I gave the f1gp track a ride and a walk too and laughed at those bored moneysnorebags on their yachts.

great song

 

@Fraggle Baggle - 38 plays - thats EXACTLY what i wanna see!!! Keep that spirit up!

 

 

@@Rodman I was embarrassed by the number of attempts, you had to go and notice!  :lol:   It helps that I love this song.  I've been playing it loads more since (including MM), but still not beat the accuracy, just score!

 

Lovely holiday snaps btw! :)

yay, and now I feel especially my right thumb

@ well looks like you've beaten me this week. All my non-floyd rose guitars are in need of new strings and I can't buy any atm so gg. There goes my streak :\

@@Rodman Nice photos, Thanks for sharing with us your trip. :)

@@Rodman Nice photos, Thanks for sharing with our your trip. :)

Sure. Glad you like it. Wanted to post a video of a whale but failed due to shitty youtube upload android app.

Tomorrow we're starting Week 150 so I'll start the week a tad sooner (though this one will end normally).

A very slight improvement...

And my best MM attempt...

All those attempts and I kept making the same mistakes over and over!  :wacko:

@@Fraggle Baggle you are getting there, don't worry about the amount of attempts...... I have played My Generation by the Who over 120 times and still on 98%......

 

.hmmm maybe I should give it another go, its been quite a while since I last tried it and this Championship definitely improves your skills.

big score update... nailed the solo perfectly... sounded like the song ... i don´t think i can force my pink mini guitar to register the chords better... but i´ll try

and that update comes with a ... whale (esp. for @Motive)

 

@@Rodman, the whale video has private status

 

Edit [Rod] it has finished ul and should work (it does for me on many browsers with no login)

Still no fan of this song.  But here is an improvement either way.

I finally hit 100% :)

@@Rodman it looks like I can get most of the chord fest but you can nail the solo bits, at least we know what we need to practice on lol

 

But as there is more chords than solo so I think I need to get a better score if I can find time,

 

Love the whale vid,

A very slight improvement...

And my best MM attempt...

see what ur getting stuck on,  slow it down on riff repeater and just keep playing that section really slow and then speedup.

omg.. One note failed :P
