Classless, Fearless FreeBird Members in their endless battle with the fb police: 2groggy

 

 

 

 

Inspired by @ Mikson  made time for another run.  You are correct the 6 to 17 barre part is not too bad.  In this run I played the wrong string in one part and that 6 fret F note (on B string) to that 17th fret A (on high E string) got me.

 

 

After a long battle I revived my laptop (at least partially) to the condition that allowed me to run Rocksmith...

So my initial scores...

 

 

Small improvement:

Only had time to do 2 this week! 

Bass - Mastodon - Capillarian Crest (93%)

Lead - Accept - Race to Exctinction (91.6%)

Google Drive link to screenshots as proof in my signature. 🙂 

Not much time available this week. Similar songs in that I could manage them both  at lower speed but had trouble getting on the pace.

 

Late Bass.

The Smiths have really nice bass charts. Btw. This is imo, well above beginner level. Lots of technical licks like hammers on and frequent string changes. A strong 5 for me.

Quick improvement.

 

Inter lead 

And a quick go at advanced lead  to hard just yet

My best shot without having more time to practice:

I'm going to say that @ Razrshred  should be promoted to MC level for perfecting this on 2 tries...

I got overwhelmed by family and work this week so these are only my sightreading / tries.. unfortunately because of the great week

old school vibes

old school (cool) but indeed really repetitive to play
