Rock on!

@Telboy @missis sumner   It was meeeeee...   :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

I'm just following the rules.  There are no rules against being over 100% or failing in score attack.  :P

Bass time.

Since he's not in that class anyway, it doesn't really matter, does it?

 

I'm sure it should not be possible to get >100% in SA, though?  :lol:

Rage: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1201214113 (This was a live performance on Twitch too :D i fluffed it a wee bit.)

 

I'll try the Polkadot one too later in the week, the chromatic lights one is just tooooo hard for my tinnitus to endure :(

Oh boy that was hardcore...

Fingers on fire, it's time to go to sleep

Can't really get into this song that isn't very rhythmic. Kinda fun to play though.

Thank you to whoever is inputting the scores continuously, I am checking them, but have very little to do. :)

There's at least 4 of us now so the work is definitely distributed.

Well a good bass night...

I didn't like the song at all in the first place but now i can't stop playing it... This band is actually very good.

Little better

 

 

Tried the Lead:

Nifty this wasn't a huge jump after learning the bass part. Went quite well for me + something considered in the realm of a rhythm part.
