The week is flying, haven't gotten near enough work in on these songs.

Just a reminder to get your eyes checked...

Small improvements 

I was thinking about a way we could implement the "Expert" skill level. What if "Expert" players played both "Advance" and "Masterclass" songs and then just take the average percentage of the 2. So if we take my scores above and got the average of the 2, it would be 94.24% for the week. Just a thought. 🎸🤔

phew barely made it!!

also here are two submissions for lead and rhythm for the arctic monkey song

class comes 1st...

 

now fun part.. I feel like I did better in advanced rhythm this week than in intermediate (even when I didn't 😉 but definitely had more fun playing it...

i feel i could do much better but no time this week...

You picked a song of mine. Thank You for that. Sorry if it seems boring to some. Music would not be where it is today if not for Blues!!!

I like that, it's quite fun to play!

Man Mikson, where am I missing that .5% on Leave Your Hat on. anyways, I have had no time to play lately work and wife don't like it if not spending my time with her. I do understand but man I love Music. We have all eternity to share lol... I suck at this song and need a week just for two small parts in it. Another repetitive song with a twist.

I like this song, it's so folky, cheerful and has a nice solo. It looks especially good in concert performances!

I get my wife to sit on the couch and knit while I play songs she likes 🙂  Time together and music.

Yep My wife Knows when I play them correctly or terrible too!!! LOL   But she is as strong willed as me, and makes me wear head phones when she doesn't want to hear.. It was such a bad day at work excuse, used to get a few moments of Play today!

Once again, I got my ass kicked this week in the MC category. Don't stand a chance anymore, and I'm feeling completely discouraged this week. I'll give AJFA one more try and that's it 

 

Got it!  Feels really good to learn a song I've liked for a long time.

Rush is always a fun song to play..

 

Also made some improvement on Metallica.. I think I can squeeze another percent out of this... I'm running out of time..

I didn't have much succes with the "Simandl"-fingering, but I'll have a go more with Joe Cocker... But I did have some succes with my lazy eyes... 😛

Though I still gets off the flow a few times... when things suddenly changes.

Hi,

 

Here's my try for the beginner lead

 

thanks.

Pitch to E-Standard for better score, my guitar/strings don't like D-standard too much...

 

It's wednesday friday my dudes. And I want to offtop for a minute.

If some of you would like to watch something not understandable for you but you like to taste something new I would like to share a link to next video with you.

Here's powerfull concert from one of oldest rock band in Russia which began at 1980s. First time I listented to it then I was young and I thought it's just a band with usial songs.

But now I see the sence of the songs. They're going through the years of out contry. Events, people, life, love. Very strong, very soulful songs and great music. 

I hope some of you will find something interesting here. Enjoy watching and listening to.

DDT. The history of sound.

Scanty information about the group on Wikipedia

 

I actually managed to improve all my play throughs today, though some not so much. 🙂 I went away from the Simantl shimel schmie.. what-ever method with Joe Cocker.

And with my lazy eyes, I couldn't beat the high score, but my accuracy was better. There are some rather easy places where my streak get broken, even though I'm playing it right. That's rather annoying. And it has happened multiple times now. 😞

And finally my Nightwish. I have some issues with my notes being heard. I think it's because the bass gets out of tune due to the strings setting set after tuning it down... But again... streak broken in simple places (as well as the difficult ones).

 

Better. 99+ is ok!

And for fun, an interesting song by a good band, but like their other songs that I have played is a serious challenge.

That's it, tomorrow unfortunately I won't have time to improve my results!

I can't get this song to finish on Score Attack.  This might be as good as it's going to get for the week.

Improved a little bit on the Rush tune..

Didn't quite make it to my 95% goal for this one.. my arm wears out with all the fast strumming for 1 hr+... I still feel pretty good with the progress I made on this one over the 4 weeks.. I'll keep playing this one. I can get that 95%...
