Rock on!

I'm not supposed to be playing, but I couldn't help but give this a go yesterday.  It's quite playable with three fingers:

This one, tonight, however, was not:

Happy new year folks !

Dokken, bass.

Better

Not quite there for INT Lead, but I like the song better.

 

BEG Lead is mischarted, I'm afraid. It's missing notes, off time, and demands I play in the Old key when the song has moved on to the new key for the last wrapups.  Did what I could.

 

And good ol Cherokee.  Had to play this quietly cause of the time, so couldn't rock out as much. Thanks for the rechart Rodman!!

Improved my scores a bit.

I think there is a big gap between Dokken (5) and the next song (6). Perhaps, Dokken is just 4? It's only slightly harder than Europe.

 

 

 

Manged to get a little better.   No more scores from me until the 28th.  I'm going to Bali tomorrow morning.

Have fun without me.

Flew back from Spain straight on the guitar and improved straight away ....only a 0.21% improvement but that makes all the difference,

 

 

and i'm getting the hang of the Dokken song as well (except the beginning bit)

 

 

hoping for some more time this week,

 

night night all

Dokken - Unchain The Night - Bass - 99.67%

Working  hard on anesthesia pulling teeth... never played before,

I barely managed to learn the first half of the song in two days 

 

@@Rodman, I left a comment about a little mistake 5 bars before the end of section 10,

I think it's   16(g)^17(g)^16(g) 17(d)

instead of  16(g)^17(g)^16(g) 19(d) 

 

Goodnight!

Slight improvement for Europe's Cherokee

 

I also did Beg Rhythm to see if it's also broken. It is, in a couple spots :( Pity. On the other hand, playing while your hand fights your ears is an interesting experience.

 

 

Did okay on Dokken's Unchain the Night.  Nowhere near competitive though. 

 

The Wobble was with me.

 

 

I cannot cleanly finger this D#dim chord...

Good old cheesy rock...

 

Good old cheesy rock...

 

Much better cheesy rock. This one was fun to play.

 

Ok... need help!

 

Just spent ~20hours that week or so charting one of my most fav Death Metal Song for the CS....

If anyone is ok at and has fun with correcting (mainly) solo parts (or bass) please pm me.

 

Thx!

The Wobble was with me.

Hi

If we talk about the same chord, the charted fingering was also too tricky for me.

So I played it much higher on the neck and look : 100% ^^°
