Let's Rock!

+ lead... ah i wish i had more time. great song

 

 

Man this took some effort! I swear I can 100% Rainbow, but RS is not detecting notes played some times.

 

Can't beat my Kings of Leon percentage yet. But doing pretty well on Requiem!! Getting confident, might look at advance, just to knock me back down to earth.

 

And it did!  :lol:

 

Can't seem to improve lead anymore, got a few high scores but not better accuracy.  Did improve rhythm tho.

Today i'd a  terrible headache ( a terrible) so i can't play anything, a pity.  There is my score on rythm

Hey.

 

Below is my cover for this week's champioship - advanced lead in case any wants to see it.

 

Hope you guys like it - click the image below to redirect to the youtube video

 

Back from my vacation so I at least can get a semi participation trophy this week

 

My pinky still doesn't work right, and maybe with the amount of times I've broken it, it might never work 100%. So I'm slowly figuring out ways to work around it, it's okay for a few notes here and there but lots of use between 3 and 4th finger and my hand locks. End Whining.

 

17% increase from my sight read, so I don't feel too bad.  On the other hand I scored the same on beginner lead as I did on advanced bass, not sure how I feel about that.

Well I couldn't figure out how to play the Rainbow song this week. Love the Def Leppard selection though..

 

 

 

Wow. That is tiresome!

@@NunoJBSilva.Guitarist - Yo JB, again nicely played. You make that look easy, and you make it sound soo well! Thx for doing that great cover videos of the weeks song - very inspirational!!!! Keep that up!

Heh, I noticed my pinky was failing at that bass track during my first two goes so I went to riff repeater to try and practice my pinky and I somehow ended up with eliminating my pinky entirely from the main riff.

Boom! Restarted until I passed the second phrase and then just went for it!
