Hey @@Gamut, you might wanna check the leaderboard again, because I think Hawkins actually won Inter Lead. Also, meelo came top in Advance Bass.

Thx @@Gamut!

 

@@RdGkA levels up to Int bass!

 

Congrats!!!

omg... not that one again... only one good thing.. no solo to learn

 

 

c´mon @Rodders! 90 is the target

loads better

 

 

close...

 

rhy is challenging, too

 

 

@@RdGkA levels up to Int bass!

 

I still don't understand the rules as it seems, but I am happy that one of the Organizers leveled me up.

 

Thanks @@Rodman

Please can we get a suitable song for Inter Rhythm? There is no way I'm playing that monster of a song. And can it not be in D. Thanks. 

How about we play Rocksmith on-disc song for intermediate rhythm?

The Police - Every breath you take (4-5, depending how stretchy or long your fingers are)

It's basically comes down to making one stretchy hand shape and keeping that most of the song. It'll also teach you how to play Mehtallica. The lead is the same, except a bit easier, due to not having to bother with hand shapes for a long long time. Which is why the rhythm track suits our purposes perfectly.

Not a fan of that song. But sure beats a D-std difficulty 7. 

I'm happy with that, if others want this?

Can never resist Amorphis.

 

 

 

 

 

Where did these ratings come from. This week is way harder than last and they are rated lower. Burn the Light lead is one big long solo. Its fun though. Has a medieval feel to it.
