Let's Rock!

9/12 songs at 100 % and 0 victories! Man the competition is tough!

 

We'll sort out the grades while the week goes on.

might be some disagreement on ratings, been testing on a ropey guitar last minute and dont play bass etc... give feedback and can shuffle selections around a bit if needed, if everyone would rather skew the difficulty a little lower or higher meelo/RgDkA already made a few points to me already but see what everyone else thinks


(edit) nm im slow, already changed!

Hmm, tried to pick through it.  I may need to do something else

 

Not sure what I did wrong the first time.   A few songs I want to work on this week.

@@johnal I knew I had seen this before :lol:

I guess I played this before, could not even get through it this time

 

 

 

Hybrid picked the verse with pick hitting A string and used finger on B string. Game seemed to like that much better and did seem to sound better. 

 

@@meelo had the song already loaded into rocksmith, I should have known.  Recently switched to a new profile in rocksmith so it is not showing me songs I scored on before.

 

@@meelo  Went through the thread you posted and it looks I ran into the same issues the last time we played this, ha ha.

 

Hmm, how do you get those 2 harmonics....

 

Sightreading at that speed....you actually have to be an alien

And by the way, i charted a full Sabaton album. I think we have our next God of Guitar chart 

quick question

 

how are winners decided? is it first person to 100% in that class?

quick question

no, competition runs for one week (Sat - Sat, about 7pmCET), highest score on end of week in player´s class wins.

You decide which class you wanna start (Beg/Int/Adv/Mc) for lead/rhy/bass individually.

 

See the leaderboards!!! and also the 10-week leaderboards and player level there!

 

 

p.s. great that you are here!

Rock,

Rod.

Watch out! It´s not the same!!! First one was Plums version.

McCartney Intermediate and Lyons Advanced :blink: Ok, I just complain because I suck that much  :wacko:

Just went through the basses

 

My opinions for the ratings:
Bob Marley (2)

The Beatles (5, maybe 6)

Ten Years After (7)

Joe Satriani (6, maybe 7, but easier than advanced)

Bass the Beatles:

though there are a few tricky parts i wouldnt rank it as high as a 5 or 6

@@Rodman   Yeah, it looks like I was playing the wrong one.  I just download the new one, enough difference to mess me up
