HAVE A GREAT WEEK!!!!

Edited November 21, 20169 yr by Rodman
(fripp)-Bass classes Beg/Int swapped, (Rod)-changed int lead winner - @koffein took the win last minute from me, so did @JokertA at Rhy Adv - THX GUYS ;) ,well played

trying to get your lb score Roddie ...100k missing

 

 

!!!!! if that ain´t one surreal post !!!!

you (!) are trying to get my (?) score on a song you charted.... :o

 

 

 

Btw:

You really used some evil unusual D chords at the end - very good fingerpositioning practice, thx.

@@Rodman, hehe, I'm focused on the rhythm path. If I play the lead in between it feels like vacation :)

anyway you've got a good score on 1st place

 

those evil D chords are not that unusual, it's just the Dmajor/F# as C-type barre over 6 strings, not easy but manageable. Starting with simple powerchords adding one more string ongoing ending up with 6 strings. In the other paths it's more open chords.

@@fripponomic - of course i am gonna tackle the Rhythm part too which is extremely cool... i just gotta finish a job at lead first.

And yeah i got those chords (counting) by now - great practice making the fingers do what they are not used to.

Happy birthday @@franfit :)

Thanks for the b-day wish. I hope you guys are doing well and playing great!!! :lol:

Kinda liked the beginner song.  It has a nice groove to it.

And tenacious D is always nice.   But those c type barres are hard.  I have never taken the time to learn them,  i just deem them to hard and ignore them.  Might be time to change that this week.   We will see.

It's not a bad song to play,  but i really don't like listening to Rush.  Never been able to appreciate their music, and i once saw a whole concert with them just to try.
