-= Week =-

Oh ….

500 weeks. No idea what to say…

But i don´t think there is anything to say – except….

You made us a hell of a week guys!!! Thx!

Only players´ favorites that week, and hell do we have a bunch of bangers there. I really recommend everyone to play all songs (except maybe bass mc 😉 , what a toughie). Also we are not doing without some Maiden and some Tallica, unplayed song and album.

Just have a hell of a week!!!!!

Thx!

Rod.

oh yeah! that´version (the one posted in the opening post is more like  a (6)´than (5.5), but nevermind

way to go @ lowender - leveling up on w500, easy to remember - congrats 😉 (are you!?)

Thanks! @rodman is the level up starting from next week? 

oh yes - target reached

 

 

ah ... btw

@ NoonyDeloony , @ missis sumner - care to have a run here for a toast to the old days, ladies?

 

@ 2groggy started a tribute this week, but I'll try to create a CDLC of Tina Turner song with all available paths. If I make it on time, I'll add them to the selection for the next week.

It will be 'Simply The Best' or alternatively 'Its Only Love' with Bryan Adams.

I would love to, but I've got a gig on Sunday, and haven't fired up Rocksmith for ages!  I won't forget where I started though.  Nine years ago, Rocksmith, Customs Forge, and of course the CF Championship.

A big congratulations to all of you here keeping it going.  Week 500 is a massive achievement.  Onwards and upwards! 😄

@ LuZifeR  great scores, you've killed it!!

I don't have much time this week but I can't really play anything else than mariachi, i love it

Thank you! Such a great piece of music!

Bass

Super songs to play on bass, great choice for 500 week!

I'm not sure if this is the right version, but that's what I had on my hard drive, and I played this for fun. Classic.

Cool song in reggae climates, although band 10cc is not a band of this genre. I had a little problems with feeling notes, sometimes hitting too fast.

I think we played this not too long ago. Funny bass chart, I'm surprised with such a good score, I started with 97% from the previous playing in championship.

Masterclass maybe later, I didn't feel like doing something very difficult. 🙂

wow.. what a week.. pity i cannot get more training with these songs..

the most interesting is the fact that in my class songs my 1st or 2nd try was the best... despite playing the songs over and over again like 10-15 times... 1st or 2nd pass remained the best... irony...

 

 

 

I forgot how to bass.

I played this one on Saturday but never got around to posting it:

 

I haven't played this on in a year or two, so I'm working to get back up to speed.

 

Some Improvement.

this bassline is doozy!

catchy and fun to play.

love me some thrash!

Imma be honest with you guys in that my practice has been slacking. I just got back from the bar and basically sight read these (altho I couldn't change the difficulty on the Dres song but notes still showed up, not sure what that's about). I couldn't not participate in week 500!

* - highest difficty in the class, you can advance to higher class if you get >99% on Lead or Rhythm or >99.5% on Bass

^ - song with difficulty higher than the highest class difficulty, you can advance to higher class too.

Oh I see, that makes a whole lot of sense 😁

Thank you!
