A pick-dropping session

On the original Rocksmith I played 5 songs for around 21 minutes.

I played Go With The Flow first, and managed to drop my pick three times - I still managed to get just over 98000 points.

I started by using the Riff Repeater in Leveller mode on the verse to Jules. The leveller mode plays the section you are trying to learn 25 times. Each time you get the section correct it increases the difficulty until you can play the full section through.

I didn't make it today, but did get the verse from 46% to 73% difficulty level, failing at the 76% point.

Music lovers will be glad I'll not be practicing tomorrow night, as I will be busy at a scouting meeting then at a buskers night - listening I should hasten to add, not playing. The pub does need to keep it's customers after all.

I've played for a total of 90 hours 42 minutes with only 9909 hours 17 minutes to go until I hit 10,000 hours: the point where you are supposed to have mastered an activity.

I've not been tracking what I have been playing on Rocksmith 2014, and should probably. Although I didn't play on it tonight, I did play for around an hour yesterday mainly on the Star Chords minigame and using the riff repeater on Muse's Knight of Cydonia.
