First-ish goes:

 

First go was not far off 100%, so had to do it:

An old guitar hero favourite?

The funny thing is I have played this several times before, but had no clue where I was towards the end of the song:

I do think the Queensryche and CCR should be swapped:

But then again, I don't know where that leaves the Fishbone?

I've solved last week's problem, prepare for some incoming Sword...

What a tune that was, last week!  I'll be leaving it in my library:

A little improvement on Suzie Q,

a lot to work on here, esp. bends

nice song, i remember the hype when it being released with that cool video back then

http://up.picr.de/30009524jq.jpg

 

that´s a lot better

i´d be happy with a solid 90 at endofweek

First try bass

small update lead, damn, i cannot make that hammerons register :(

I have a problem with Queensryche, there's a title clash with Kasabian's "Empire" so it only loads the Kasabian track, with Kasabian album art, but Queensryche as the artist.  :blink:  

 

 

Ciao a tutti

;)

I did say I'd tryhard this week, let's get going!

I never really paid much attention to Queensyche growing up, but now that I've noticed them, they're pretty sweet. I like this song a lot - I think with some study I can get pretty good at it.

 

I'm gonna make the goal of at least ten plays this week, I've been lazy lately and I gotta get back to getting gooder!

Great choice @@MaZtoR. Very cool CCR tune I haven't heard for a long time.

First guitar run

Last time we played Jack ass brigade i got 59%.  So even that this was not good, it was still a big improvement.

My Internet is super slow at the moment. Have been changing the front and back rooms around so my PC is far away from the router and the WiFi seems to be very poo hence no video for last week's sword. Might see if I can do a version on the bus though... the Arriva WiFi seems stronger than my home broadband :D

First run BASS

I did not have a bass when i added Suzie to the song selection list.  So my test back then was made on my guitar.  Its a lot harder with a real bass.

Thanks again for running this champ and good week of playing everyone !

Need more practice with Fishbone

 

http://nsa38.casimages.com/img/2017/08/07/170807093943138149.jpg

Got Empire working, it's definitely way easier than Suzie Q.  Still in the middle of a session, but just narrowly missed 100% first go on Empire.  That's not right for advanced in my book.  :huh:

Bring's back my childhood :D

And then all those bends happen.

It does not sync well with ma brain.

Blimey!  :blink: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1103720466

 

Last time I played this particular Fishbone song I didn't get past 16% in LAS, I did quite well for a first try since then and a slight recurrence of tendonitis. :)

Well bugger.....

Guess I was too quick to snap.  It was a hundo though....see...you can just see...no?  Well I know it was, that's all that really matters.  :P :lol:

 

 

One I'll enjoy working on....(for advanced bass? :P )

Not a 5 difficulty.  A 4, maybe even a 3?
