ROCK ON!!!!

I must have slept well last night. First attempts for both of these songs today and I improved. I am liking these songs more and more. Damn good picks..

 

 

 

Plus, I figured I'd give the Pabbarotti song a go

 

All great songs, though I've struggled.

Had to really work in RR just to get this.

Pretty fun track to jam to.

can I have beginner bass songs too difficult pls

Getting better

updates on Tuesdays session.....

 

 

 

just hope i get a little more time to improve a bit

Because of my business trip I had no time to practice this week =(

Didn't improve on Steel the Light today, but did get better on Children.

 

first tries on the Pavoroti racket  :wacko:

 

 

night night all

 

Really like Pink Floyd :D

 

What a pleasure of a tune to play. Has the same progression as Aryeon's Abbey of Synn, which I used to bump on the daily in high school. This guitar is WAY better, though!!

 

Pretty okay sightread on this other great song I haven't heard of, too.  Every time it starts my brain goes "Modern day warrior, mean mean stride - wait... "  :lol:
