I like this song, I remember seeing Shinedown opening for Iron Maiden in Glasgow and I must say that they were probably the best opening act Ive ever seen.

Thanks Diceslinger for the welcome back!

Lets try some stuff

 

eh not a huge fan of these guys. The intro sounded cool so I'll give them that, but I can't stand the singer.

 

This is fine

 

That got surprisingly fast near the end, quite fun.

 

is this a jojo reference?

memes aside I wish I'd've done this in score attack, oh well

 

Wait I did the wrong song, ignore me lol

 

guitar stuff later?

I did the right one this time. 4 note chords and harmonics oh no this is gonna be a bad week lol

 

Hmm, thought I played better than that .

 

Played the chords a bit exaggerated 

 

Did not care for my E chord at all.  Will go for extra silly precise (ESP) in next run through.

 

Messed up a little part of that solo, need to take a look at it in RR.

 

Beginner: Lead

Beginner Rhythm:

I got a decent start for the week:

 

 

 

Hopefully I'll have some time to improve on them.

 

 

Didn't want to downtune for a beginner's bass song :)

 

 

The ending is pretty random and hectic...

 

Ugh, almost there... 70+%

Inter lead, is way easier then beg lead, for me anyway. Good song too, though the singer sounds like Chad Kroeger. I'm still dealing with constant crashing, so this is all I got before I gave in.
