Thank you, Rodman! I will keep doing this. One week ago, I didn't think it could turn out this well, but I beat the impostor syndrome and was able to deliver. More to come for sure!

I've never understood the appeal for pink floyd nothing ive heard from them has stood out to me. But after listening to your cover that has changed my mind and ill give them a listen lol. 

really nice work on your cover grats!

In my case, Pink Floyd has been part of my life since I was 5, and the more I dug, the more I loved it. I would recommend you listen to Wish You Were Here and Meddle first, then you can listen to the rest in chronological order. All of their albums have gems, and in each listening session, you will find something new.

 

Here is one of my favorite ones from an underrated album.

Beautiful!!

Here is my attempt from last night. Though I feel like I cheated with this.

By cheating I mean during portions of the song on the Red/E string, and it's 3, 5, 7, then Yellow/A String 5, 7. I wasn't using my pinky for the 7th fret like I feel like it's designed to do by using my index/middle and ring finger.

Still played it well but only got 92% when I used my pinky, shows me I need to work on pinky strength.

For me PF was the main band that inspired me to buy a guitar and try to play it. I quickly started trying them on Rocksmith (from the beginning there were a lot of CDLCs of their songs available) but I was terrible at it 😆 Definitely too high of a threshold to start with, although now it seems not very difficult. I've played this solo many times, I even did a CDLC of the full DSotM album, I don't know if you've tried it?
The funny thing about PF is that whenever I meet someone who likes them they list another album/songs as their favorites, it shows the versatility of the band. Wot's... Uh The Deal? is a really niche song, but I like it too, there was even a CDLC of this song because I remember playing it, now looks like it's been deleted, but I think I have it somewhere in my archives.

Such many cases of deleted cdlcs... I remember the chart for Snowblind by Black Sabbath and the post simply disappeared.

Yeah, i think people that really listens to PF have different reasons to like it. I really love David, but i love Roger too, and the synergy between those two from a saucerful of secrets to wish you were here was just so amazing.

Going to the movies watch live at the pompeii this sunday, i'm hyped! 

One of my favorite songs from the earlier days too, it broke my heart many many times

I love the times when they worked together and created great songs. However, as you know, everything went wrong later and when it comes to solo activities, I am definitely on David's side. I like both albums released after the band resumed without Roger, although many fans have a different opinion on this. On the other hand, I don't really like The Final Cut, which was almost Roger's solo album released under the PF label.

Is this the video recorded in the 70's and released on DVD? I have it and remember the first time I watched it how impressed I was. In a cinema with a good sound system it must be amazing!

Yeah, it's this video! And now they remastered it and they did the audio sync, the quality is amazing, I FREAKING LOVE TAPES! 

 

Bass time.

Really hard bass week for me 🫣

I really don't know how I would rate this. The chart is repetitive but it's hard to get a high score here.

Better but I was playing in RR and forgot to stop rewinding to the beginning...

Fun chart, but a bit tricky in a few places.

This was difficult for me, hard advanced or easier masterclass.

Surprisingly, this was easier for me than in the advanced song. Fast, but the chart is quite repetitive.
