International Support Act achieved

On the original Rocksmith I played 12 songs for around 50 minutes, with an overall time of 95 minutes.

I started by playing the songs in my practice list, with an attempt at improving my score for Jules using the Riff Repeater in leveller mode and managed to get from 76% to 86% (and find the 86% level very difficult).

I tried the master mode for Go With the Flow and earned 168515 points. In master mode you don't get the notes and have to play from memory: I got 78% of the notes right. I'm rather pleased with that.

On the songs for the set I've been practicing, I finally managed to get Jules up to the qualifier score (helped by using the riff repeater - I really should have been trying that much earlier I think).

I decided to do the full set as I had reached all of the qualifiers, with the addition if Next Girl to the mix. I was reasonably pleased and ended up unlocking the Gibson ES175D.

Oh yes, I also earned enough points to get to level 8: International Support Act. I don't know any songs well enough to play at a local buskers night, so I think the ranking should be taken with a pinch of salt.

The new setlist is at The Hanger with Interpol's Slow Hands, The Cure's Boys Don't Cry, Red Hot Chilli Pepper's Higher Ground and Dan Auerbach's I Want Some More.

It will be good playing something slightly different for a few practices. 

I've played for a total of 91 hours 9 minutes with only 9908 hours 50 minutes to go until I hit 10,000 hours: the point where you are supposed to have mastered an activity.
