After 7 one miss playthroughs on the bass MC I finally get a 100% playthrough recorded but then ofcourse it is one where I actually mess up lmao

edit: 2 one miss playthroughs later, got it. :)

100% playthrough of bass beginner:

And 100% playthrough of bass MC:

Last Christmas I gave you my bass...

This one is harder so I will not push it to the limit.

Here are my guitar scores (and we all drive home for christmas a little sadder)

Perfect! Was just waiting for that - thing is that I, myself am soooo bad at non-standard chords that i have to rate them a lot lower than they are for me. I absolutely dislike those synth charts cause it just could be so much more play and enjoyable on guitar with a lil work.

(7.5) it is now - or do you think 8?

For us this is a strong 8, but I think 7.5 might be okay, for us these chords are very difficult because we don't use them in everyday playing, but if we practiced like this for a few months, this would be playable 😉

R.I.P. Chris Rea 😢 A great guitarist and composer, one of whose biggest hits is the beautiful Christmas ballad "Driving Home for Christmas." I create CDLC of this song which we played during Christmas week three (oh, time flies) years ago.

@Rodman Maybe we could add Lead and Bass as a bonus track for Christmas week as a tribute?

Thanks for the new week! Lots of songs going brrrrr 😄

This was crazy:

I pretty much tired out my right hand practising The Violation and then realised I hadn't played Relient K yet 😅 Only the bass path, so no score, just for fun:

And this one just to be sure:

I noticed I just earned the One Year In badge :D How far I've come, from Maria Carey to Wham!

Awesome project!

I was on the edge of buying a Pandora box (small one) but was gifted a portable retro console 😁

I can't seem to add scores. Is it sufficient to ask permission and fill the Add new score sheet?

@ALSRC - permissions updated - thanks for also updating the scores!

Merry Christmas @everyone 🎄

Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁
