Attention! The Fairy Fellers's Master-Stroke rhythms have to play the lead path here, which is clearly rhythm guitar. Rhythm path does not count anything, since it's real lead but only a few fill ins!!!! So play lead, it counts as rhythm!!!

Tribute to Chris Cornell

last week at 17. may a great musician passed away, Chris Cornell, songwriter, singer and guitarero of Soundgarden and Audioslave. High time to catch up on playing one of his great songs as tribute. I chose a great and really fun to play song of Audioslave.

 

 

Audioslave - Set it off (4/5)

 

 

rest in peace Chris!

intermediate try

;)

@@Fraggle Baggle Yes super glue does work, my fingers get cut, burnt and they split due to work...... and i just use RS superglue..... sorted  ;)

it does sting a little bit but i'm sure you Northern lasses can take it  :P

 

here' some six string scores......

 

 

needs some work me thinks

 

 

one play in SA maybe but a little more times than that in LAS

 

 

i get the weird colours on the chord shapes on this song which throws me off a bit.

 

night night

Are there a couple of notes out of time, here?  'Cos this is where I f**k up, every time:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKUU4tbndzOFBBT1E/view?usp=sharing

 

Anyway, I did manage a 96%:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKM2J6dkl6eEw3YlE/view?usp=sharing

 

And I made it through SA:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49Qq-EFnmrKclVmZnNqb2RGSzA/view?usp=sharing

(although no improvement on score).

 

And this is my random contribution for the night.  It's still the only song I can actually play without Rocksmith, but I'm amazed it took me so few goes to get it in Mastermode again, as I never play MM:

:D

@@Fraggle Baggle use the glue! It stings a tiny bit then your finger goes solid and it lasts a while too... I first tried it after seeing John Pertwee's son's innards fall out in Dog Soldiers and he said "Use the glue!!!", or words to that effect... I thought "What a good idea!" and have done ever since. My youngest split his head open a couple of years ago and had his head glued by hospital staff (no scar either!)  so it's all tried and tested and safe and what-not... 

 

Audioslave: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=936989908 I'm not very good at this song so I need more work practicing it a bit more, not sure I'll have time tonight but will see if I can motivate myself a bit later.

Beg Bass round 3. 99.68% https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/775029780379502939/1D62428100CB9861D77233CF92EA01B091C621E8/

 

Can someone tell me the formula to make an image fit please.

What a beautiful image you paint @@NoonyDeloony!  Sounds like he certainly needed more than school pva! :lol:  I'm clearly just a big wuss!  If it opens up again I'll try the glue.  Thanks for the reassurance! :)

 

@@Telboy - It's the antici..........pation of pain that gets me! :P  BTW, can't see your screenies for some reason.

 

 

@@Tonedef, there was mention not long ago about folks having their Steam accounts banned for publicly sharing screenshots of cdlc so you might want to upload to a host like Imgur.  It has the advantage of letting you resize from there too.

@@NoonyDeloony - True. Wounds can be glued instead of using stiches today (i am sticking to: "the kids love it" and keep away from insulting anyone ;) ). BUT from a prof pov of course the propper fibrin - glue is to be used and even a lot more important thorough disinfection must be done (what is easy). You wouldn´t wanna end up with an infection that has been glued down :ambulance: .

 

Personally i would have no problem using standard superglue on annoying superficial scratches but be sure to use some high in alcohol content fluid ON THE SCRATCH ;) for some time.

@@Tonedef - for example picr.de is ad-free, you instantly get the img-code to paste here. if you register all your images are stored with the option to delete anytime.

Thanks @@Fraggle Baggle and @@Rodman

 

I used a photobucket account i have had for to long. I think that's how I did it in here long ago. Seems to have worked. Good to know Steam is dumping people who share the images. I had no idea and they are all taken down now. I honestly dont know why the link above still works if I have dropped them all... :huh:

Happy birthday @@Tonedef!

I never liked Cornell. And I still don't.

Now we're talking about good music.

This one I played with pick. Very fun.

Thanks for the note about steam uploads. I'll send it to my Drive account instead.

Can I participate in all sections (Beginner, intermediate, advanced and masterclass) of Lead Path?

Can I participate in all sections (Beginner, intermediate, advanced and masterclass) of Lead Path?

 

You sure can! You compete in the class closest to your skill level, but feel free to post scores of all songs, regardless of whether they are your level or not.

A couple of small improvements, and probably the last of the week,

 

 

@@kirard - welcome! i love your avatar.

 

@@Tonedef - Happy BD, man!!!

Happy birthday @@Tonedef

Happy birthday @@Tonedef

Thanks. No one else needs to say it. I am not big on birthdays after turning 21:) and that was long ago.

@@Rodman - Thanks
