HAVE A GREAT WEEK!!!!

I'm not terribly interested in the selections this week, so here are a couple of place holders

Kind of late starting, I've been putting my guitar efforts this week into my acoustic. Gonna try my hand at busking and see how much money I can scrounge up in an afternoon.

Not super crazy about this song, but it's alright, I suppose! It isn't very sightread friendly, - has a couple licks that take some serious speed to pull off, but aren't that hard once you know they're coming. Think the next play's gonna be a lot better.

 

My MC sightread was abysmal. Let's pretend it never happened.

 

Hope you managed to sneak some partying in for your birthday, @@Molice ! Wish I said it on time but I always manage to miss the day-of...

update, I swear playing this song is like pulling teeth or scratching a chalk board. Its so slow and dreary I feel like killing myself while playing it.

 

Never head this one, but good fun to play.

Hmm I think the Intermediate bass tune is reeeeaaaalllllly difficult

So I played some others as well  B) 

But everytime... one note missing!

Good evening all,

 

tonights mission was to beat all previous scores as the misses was out with the granddaughter and i had the house to myself, first off the Cult Rhythm, not he 100% i wanted but heading in the right direction.

 

 

this increase give me courage to try and get through the Cult Lead on SA.....

 

 

those of you that have played this will recognise that the note on the highway is the last note of the song........ it gave me a final red cross on the last fucking note...... (excuse my language as i was very angry)

this is not fair and if i were a computer game i would have let me off with a small warning !!!!!

 

incensed by this blatant kick in the teeth i had another go.......

 

 

the difference was that I actually hit some of the Purple and Green notes  :rolleyes:

 

with a smile on my face and oozing confidence everything was once again making sense until i had a go at the Intermediate bass.....then nothing made sense and it was time to watch Paranoid on the telly box.

 

 

night night all

Unfortunately last week i didn't have time to play and the remastered update didn't help :P

A slight improvement

http://i.imgur.com/jJXMU2T.jpgI'll give Cementerio Club a try later, i'm glad you guys are playing more argentinian bands!! Pescadio Rabioso was an incredible band and led by one of the greatest composers in our country, Luis "El Flaco" Spinetta 

Sorry I couldnt post this week, it was very hard for me to find time to sit and practice. Ill be doing sidewinder for sure on saturday

I love bends....... not  :lol:

Well I couldn't leave the Cementorio Bass with 2 strikes............and this is my only improvement tonight,

 

 

tomorrow is another day 

First time joining the championship, so I thought I'd start at beginner...

Will have to try the intermediate stuff if I can get to it in time.

Welcome @@six_string_ninja!

Much better! Solo is starting to sound good.

God, is it Friday already? I've barely started this week. I hate job-hunting. :confounded:

 

These early attempts brought to you late by extreme sleep deprivation:

Never heard of this band or this song before, but it's a pretty fun little ditty. Bet I can 100% tomorrow morning if I get a decent rest tonight.

After like 3 attempts of getting downleveled on the sweep picking, I finally forced myself to Riff Repeat it and squeeze this out. Let me tell you, it sounded terrible.

 

Good night~

It seems that another of my custom was selected on the championship  :D  I'm really glad, another user proposed it.

"Cementerio Club" is the second track of the album "Artaud", which is considered by many experts the best album of the story of argentinian rock. Spinetta was by far one of the greatest (if not the greatest) musician of hispanoamerican music.

Here are my scores for this beautiful slow blues:
