just too many misses, i might try with another guitar

ah - i wish Master @Nacholede would stop by for a spin for the ol times - he has been a huge fan ...

that scrolling speed does not make the solo sections any easier :)

great bass mc, super clean file also (8)

thx @Emmy-Dell

Usually a 2% improvement would lead to an ok score, but this is an exception

Thanks for the new week!

Improvement

Guitar scores

Thx for the week! @robolechuga

Nice song that I haven't heard before.

Old screenshot from testing.

Oh, this is a CDLC almost from the beginning of Customsforge 😮

Some bass.. I did not expect Counting Crows to sound like that! 🫨

@Mikson it's a shame so many more difficult shreddy tracks are not updated to meet the new standards, sadly so many of the 8.5+ or so songs on the SSL are ancient charts and need a fresh round of paint 😅 if anyone knows any please add to the list here (https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbwy6vF3XYDZ_s1WeqiHTgBcVgbF8cr2AUQjKH3aRSZYuh32Erc-IstP5Gos-1i_evkm/exec)!

i don't like this song, the shrek one is better... interesting music video

🎶🎸🌘 CHAMPIONSHIP NIGHT!!!!

YEEAAHHH!!! ✌😎✌🤩✌😎✌🤩
Thanks CyberLettuce for hosting the week!!!

Eventhoug I am half Japanese I need to confess I didn't know Yoko Kanno or the Seatbelts until quite recently after watching Cowboy Bebop on Netflix....

This is a really fun song indeed!!!

I was also very thrilled to realize there is a CDLC of "Tank!" which is the theme from Cowboy Bebop!!!
Should be featured some day here in the Championship!!!!

Hi @robolechuga !!

In order to show you my gratitude for hosting the week, I made an AI image for you!!

I was curious what image would be generated with the word "Robolechuga"... here is the result!

Have a nice musweek everyone! Thanks for hosting @robolechuga !

Ally Nicholas - Killing

Counting Crows - Round Here

Ted Nugent - Hey Baby

Dream Theater - The Spirit Carries On

Lake Street Dive - Hypotheticals

The Seatbelts - What Planet Is This

i think 5s might be too high since theres no solos and it repeats alot.

fun song to play, cant do them bends tho.

havent seen a song with such slow scroll speed in awhile xD

replayed it since Emmy updated it this week

Rhythm

Previously I tested and rated only Lead as 2 in the spreadsheet. But Rhythm is very similar, so it's also a 2, not a 1.

This scroll speed makes it difficult to feel the notes. And the tone meant I could barely hear what I was playing 😄

Solid results in the face of adversity is what I see here/

Pretty wiped out after going to a show last night (acoustic Trey Anastasio show), was a blast though! Gave these my best shot
