Rock On!

Sorry for less than ideal difficulties across several classes this week, folks. Little out of practice at rolling these. Will put extra effort into the next batch.

 

It's been a nice change of pace in my opinion. No frantic playing in Bass masterclass is good  :lol: It was also a really cool song!

Advanced and beginner songs seem perfect for their classes.

This has been a rght grind! Thought for sure I'd have had this 100% by now. But it still keeps eluding me, Great score though for a non 100% 

I'm missing on a lot of the trills.  I usually don't have that problem.  Might be the tuning that does not like me hitting the hammer-on that hard.

 

And some rhythm

Better streak, just one chord strummed to soft.

 

 

I can reproduce my lead score, but not improve it, it seems. I thought knew this song good enough for master mode, but messed up the easiest part during the keyboard solo, 'cause I couldn't remember the notes.

 

This is acceptable! Had one miss at the end, which I should have gotten, but I can't do much better than that in the solo department.

Oh @@Anwyn, why must you rock? B)

Slowly but surely ;)

a few more runs....still looking for those missed notes.

Still can't 100% lead beginner. But here is a update for Bass masterclass .... 

Mission: Don't be last.

 

 

Mission: Try it once, be last.

 

 

Last post before my vacation. Have a spare guitar at the parents house so hopefully I'll be able to try and participate again in 2 weeks or so

 

After a 2 or 3 year hiatus, I have finally decided to get back into the swing of things.  A lot has been going on, not the least of which is our recent relocation to Blois, France.

 

I decided to start off with beginner bass, since that is where I was way back when.  Didn't fare as well as I thought I would on this one, but I probably won't have much time to improve it:

Will the league finish and refresh in the new year? Curious to when everyone starts on zero again  :)

It's a rolling 10 week leaderboard. No need for resetting.

2 notes on this week, might be able to get 100%. First note, drop pedal makes a noticeable delay on the note that throws me off just enough and I can't adjust pitch based on what I hear on my strings. 2nd note F- the slide that comes at the end, my timing is off on one of them every time even if I am 100%ing the rest of the song.  Slide, I will defeat you and feast upon your entrails.

 

 

-Wrenth

I may quote this every time I miss a slide!

Slide, I will defeat you and feast upon your entrails.
