Not much of an update tonight.  Another 95.91 on the Nachbarschaft, but at least I remembered to take a screen shot of this, this time:

Have a great week

i´d love to see you flying through H.T. lead if you find time for a playthrough.

 

Sure, I'll take any request :)

It's my 20th week anniversary* (can you call a milestone in weeks "anniversary"?)!  

(*Championship + also when I started playing bass)     :confetti_ball:  :lol:

 

Quite a fun track to play, shame about the bit up at the dusty end of the neck though.  :P  21st fret?!?!  Do you think you're playing guitar or something Fripp?  ;)  :D

indeed I played the guitar and banjo. Our bassman played that funny little solo on a fretless bass, also improvised. Very nice one :D

Getting better.

I've had two of these scores tonight, this was the better streak, but not the best streak of the night.  :wacko:

And I'm pleased with this, because I am playing with my fingers:

And I still think it's easier than the advanced...  :ph34r:

That's good going!  I think I'm just past my three year bass anniversary, and soon to be coming up to my three year Rocksmith anniversary.  It took me a while to find this place though!

Not much time tonight but i had a little go at the INT bass.........

 

 

happy with this but will get 100% when the misses stops making do DIY stuff...... bloody menace,

 

night night all, gotta drill some holes in the wall.......  :rolleyes:

Some improvements

I don't speak a decent word of German, but Nachbarschaft certainly has a pythonesque vibe to it, so the silliness factor suits me just fine.  I'm up to 99.48% on (bass of course).

It's the grand return of Gamut! Well, not that grand. I can't get my audio latency right on my new PC, and I'm rusty as hell. xD

I've already raved about how much I love this song, so go figure, I know it pretty well. This is a score! Incredible.

This song perplexed me and I have no idea what I think about it yet. But it was straightforward enough to play on lead.

For some fucking reason Bandicam doesn't work with Rocksmith anymore for me, I've been trying since yesterday to get it to work and I just can't. It used to work perfectly, just lanch it press record boom it's going, now it can't start recording even though I didn't change anything. 

 

So sorry, @@Rodman, a screenshot all I can do for now.

 

(Yes, it shows recording, because I started the recording on the intro/loading screen of the game, but the actual video file is only 23 seconds, and cuts off when the Rocksmith Remastered (Press Enter) screen would come up)

 

Advanced Lead 100% | 1,166,400

Don't tell me you play with a... pick?  :blink:  tsk tsk tsk

Guitarists... gotta love'em!  :D  :P  :D  :lol:

is that a bird? is it a plane? No! The ghost writer in the sky straight to the intermediate top of the week!  :D

I can use a pick, yes.  :P

No posts last night due to a technical hitch but I did go straight to number 1 in the INT Bass but only to be beaten straight away thanks to @@guijappe

 

However the week is young so I just might just be able to run through a few more times on Bass.....mainly due to struggling badly on the 6 string.

 

(all my bass scores are using a pick, cos I cant do the fingering bit......... yet)

My play. Sorry @@fripponomic. You can cut my hands.
