First goes.

 

It should be a straight 100%, but I'm not sure what I should be doing when those Xes come up:

so I just made some shit up. :)

 

Yup, Primal Scream, heard of them but never taken notice:

Hmmm, Deep Purple, heard of them and never taken notice, but now think I really should have:

And WTF is this?  Oh, yeah, "The Championship" :D :

@@missis sumner and other pesky bassists - those Xs are palm muted chords. Since Remastered, Rocksmith never shows what chord it is (it's easy when they're surrounded by non-palm muted chordes), so play whatever sounds right to you :D

Muse and the "mashing the strings like "Fat Homer" mashes the keypad with his palm to obtain a special dialing wand" : http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=930458701

 

Primal: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=930458634 CHOOOOOOOON!  :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

 

Deep Purple: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=930458539 Room for improvement.

 

MC I didn't like the tune so not bothered with that one... Soz pop picker!

Deep purple: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=930484255

 

Slight improvement on streak and score. %'s need to move a bit though

Pooer score pooer streak but %+ http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=930492167

 

tired hands now more tomorrow :) Fun songs though... anyone else getting the urge to break out into Uprising by Muse with the intro to this DP song? :D

Too bad I misse dlast week. Coulda taken a stab at Master Blaster. :/

 

Anyway, first few times on Deep Purple are looking optimistic at 98.35. Might hit 99.5 this week if I can find time to practice:

For some reason I was having note recognition problems with Muse  :huh:  I don't think it was operator error (always in the middle of a run of straight notes).  Odd.  :blink:

 

 

Anyway.....got a 600k score improvement on the last time I played this...

And I feel I should probably be ashamed to admit the only Deep Purple song I knew before was "Smoke On The Water"...but I'm LOVING this!  Must educate myself on them now. :P  First attempt, room for improvement - and I'm going to enjoy this one! :)

Its just the first fret of the E and A string. So F and A#, but giving it your best air guitarist move works the same:)

Vocals can be off putting, but it can grow on you. Instruments are fun and that's what matter. I find solos to be right there at good speed for me.

The "I have got no life," record, as of yesterday:

In 16 years' time I'll be world class.

 

Another one to add to the collection:

Better (still time to improve):

And woo hoo!

I played this with a pick.  It did take me 3 goes to improve on yesterday's finger style attempt.  But surely it should be played with a pick?  It's so damn fast...

Yo @@frax - cool number there on your steam stat! For how long have you been playing RS, well i know when you joined the CS, you indeed seem tonhave quite a high number of hours per week ;) cool

 

Thanks!  It's funny that weekly hours count has been going down lately, I used to average 2-3 hours a day (almost every day), so that's me slacking there! :D  Well, that and I'm playing more outside of RS now.

 

 

I got RS2014 in December 2015 and I think I played guitar for about a month, then as with every time I've picked guitar in my life, I got de-motivated and put it down again till August last year.  Since then I've played bass more days than not and I suck worse than ever at guitar so that never gets touched anymore.  I just can't adjust to going back to narrower string gaps and smaller frets.   -_-

 

@@missis sumner  Jeez!  Ok, ok, I get it, I'm a noob! :P :lol: :D

well i couldn't get the intermediate song to register in my library so i went for the Muse song as i know i don't have time to learn any other songs this week,

 

 

 

i may be back for the weekend to have another go,

 

night night all
