Apart from the solo fill (sweep?), this is rather easy

Little improvement, it's not enough 

94.55% advance lead

I thought it was worth to share with you guys - Brothers of Metal just commented my video.

 

always nice to see bands commenting your videos. Props to BoM for interacting with their fans

 

 

 

Obligatory master mode. The strike was actually in the part after the solo where I still stumbled from my bad sweeps.

 

Was lowering my action and fixing the intonation and somehow managed to snap my low E-string (didn't overtune). So had to play something easy to see whether the strings are stable enough after re-stringing.

one note difference above @@Sebb ;) I claim I played all strums correctly, but guess I was too late or too early.

Tried this again and made a new streak record. Of course not as high as my highest accuracy though.

@@Anwyn wow :)

Slight improvement

 

 

Messed up a couple of parts I thought I had down :(

I was just looked back at the week 77 thread, I was thinking my goal would be to beat the 91.61% @@Rodman posted back in the day.  Then I saw that he played it 50 times in score attack!  Wow!  And I thought @@meelo played songs to death!  My hat's off to you my friend!

 

Could have never done a score close to that with a few plays back then.

The motivational fact is - i can now!

 

Rock!

+, cash

A mere mortal trifles in the affairs of the gods.

 

A few tricky parts in this one, will need to revisit

No surprise here, but i can't play this at all. 

 

Improve on the solo,

95.35 % on advance lead

Played it slowly.

And felt confident so I went to SA. 89.88 twice in a row.

I am missing way too many of the basic G / Am / F / C chord strums for some reason. My timing is not spot on, but should be close enough. Oh well.

Slightly better for both Lead and Rhythm.
