Rock On!

 

I like AC/DC a lot more that AM.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I keep banging my head on this song...

 

I swear I could play if from memory, so I gave master mode a shot.  No Xs!

 

Then a breakthrough!

bass, 1st - not sooo easy, i´ll hope i find time to come back.

main problem is on the fly transposing to d string - stupid finger p-ing in file.

 

 

yeah

 

 

lead, better

Love this tune, has a Robin Trower blues feel to it.

What the #@$*...Same overall accuracy?

tonights improvements

 

 

i play this exactly as it is charted which is a real wrist and finger killer,  (and i broke a pick) i know you guys must have found an easier way, but this is my best.

 

more than happy to be within 1% of @Rodman@ & Angelina27 hope to get an hour tomorrow on this one.

 

 

this is my first attempt after last Sunday and i tried the picking but the score got better somehow..... i am probably doing it wrong but still finding the Monkeys more challenging.

 

 

off to see my friends  band now..... i wonder if he'll let me on stage for a song or 2  hahahaha

Sorry @@meelo, you might wanna get back on SA for Brianstorm. TBH I completely fluked it. I was struggling picking so went al naturale with the fingers.

@@Telboy, 

Hey man, I noticed you are using the other Brianstorm CDLC. There are 2 and the Championship one is different to the one you are using. I had the version you are using too, had to delete it. 

I think these scores from page three were missed somehow and haven't been entered into the spreadsheet.

Some small improvements.

@@Toni-Wan Kenobi. The computer says no. All of these were back-to-back. I guess my only chance of catching your score now is to do this in master mode.

At least I still have metallica

@@meelo You are so close, if you beat it. I will try and improve  :lol: 

Hope everyone had a good week.  My scores may not show it, but I get the sense that I am getting better from the perspective of my fingers just "knowing" where to go on chords, or at least it doesn't take me as long to get that when a slightly different one pops up.  Have also been trying to not stare at my fretting hand so much and rely on knowing where I am on the fretboard.  Anyway, here's my best shots for this week.  Thanks!

 That is awesome...I remember feeling that the first time. I love it when I'm in the zone and my fingers just know where to go!
