First runs 😉

Been a long time since i played this song. Didn't know of this newer version, so that was a nice surprise.
And early post this week as i will be away for the most of the week.

Tackled this week's earlier 😁... might have some more tries later, on a couple of them that i only played once (ever... and didn't know the songs either 😅). Also missed (wasn't on the list i guess ?) the Dance Gavin Dance song which i'll probably also try later on.

Have a good week everyone !

My little finger needs to go to the gym

I probably can make the 100% on the beginner one. I really like the song "Heavy Metal" ! I use Neural DSP plugins so I have the pitch shift from it, so I just changed the tuning from Two faced because Rocksmith receive my guitar without the tone of Neural DSP (Drop D)

Thanks for the new week!

Soothsayer was really fun to play. Does he have more songs like this?

Had a lot more trouble with this one than I expected - guess I've been away too long...

Early drop of scores this week, heading on holiday for two weeks tomorrow so won't be about next week but should be able to compete the following week.

Shame I couldn't put more time into the songs this week, really dug "Heavy Metal" and only noticed today the Dance Gavin Dance update today, had a great time with their last song in the championship a few months ago.

Don't know what happened with scores on this one...

Best of luck with your scores everyone!

There’s my first 100% done!

For Two Faced, I’m just missing a bit of cleanliness to squeeze out a few more %.

I forgot I've been in Advanced Rhythm for weeks now...

I can't ignore mr bungle.

Goodbye sober day, I guess.

A bit better, can't do the fast octaves.

Love this band a ton

I have wayyyyy too much fun listening to and playing this song, so addicting. Thanks for choosing my submission!

I don’t know if that’s enough to overtake Vodka since he technically has a higher percentage, but either way, I’ve got him in my sights. 😝

Well. My pull offs sound terrible and when I'm trying to make them better they are going to "miss".

Lead scores

To explain a bit the meaning of this song - the song metaphorically refers to the division of Berlin into West and East Berlin. The word "arahja/arahia" itself means wall.

It's a pity that this was added a bit later, which will probably mean fewer participants will play this. Generally, for me, DGD playstyle is unplayable but this could be really fun 🙂

Rhythm

I think we played this at Christmas once. Did anyone get the holidays mixed up?

Yikes...

Hi. Congrats @JobwanMojo for nice score in Master Bass song. I cant even scratch his score....
