Rock on!

One of my favourite live song performances of all time and THESE DAMN BENDS NEVER WORK !!! :angry:

 

Had some trouble to have the game recognize the hammer-pull of from the song.

 

A whole lot of RR and 0.8% gain! Odd how when you play a song so many times that you start to fuck-up the easy parts.

 

Not my best, but I'll take it with the technical issues.  New rocksmith cable arrives tomorrow. If it shows up early enough I'll run at this again.

I got my target......not as high as @@MaZtoR but i'm happy with it  :D

 

 

i don't miss the Dm but get a bit finger tied on a couple of places, 

I'm done with that one

(after the 20th attempt my wife started to give me funny looks)

 

well done @Poutzy  @

had a pretty good week with this, went from not being able to play the beginning parts and the up and down parts at all to being able to play them so that was good. One problem I had was the game wouldnt recognize the octave chords unless I played the D string open, not muted like it notated but totally open which was weird to play. Not really into this style of playing or music so it was good to work on.

 

I've been ill most of this week so not put much time in at all but here's my scores from last weekend. 

First


Last


Feeling better today though so hopefully next week should be better.  :)

I've been ill most of this week so not put much time in at all but here's my scores from last weekend. 

 

 

 

It was you.....! Youuuu who gave me the lurgy! (no idea if you did, I just noticed you are around my neck of the woods so I need someone to accuse :) .) I have had no time to bass due to this lurgy and other stuff like decorating and lugging furniture up and down the stairs. Hope next week now that everything is sorted (after 3 years of living in this place!) that I will have time to tuck into some proper practice :)

 

Grats those who have made improvements, another year until I get any good at Californication I guess  :unsure:

Because last week started late, scores will be accepted until 10pm EST (8.5 more hours).

 

That said... new week starts soon anyway!  :ph34r:

Hello.
