All together, I have played 10292 songs, mainly on the Rocksmith games although some have been either solo practice or with friends.

At my friends band's gig on Saturday night, the jukebox was playing R U Mine and I could remember quite a lot of the lead notes, so thought I'd give the bass line a blast tonight as well. I did ok with it, especially as it has been 83 days since I last attempted the bass line.

Most of the songs I attempted I haven't tried the bass line on the original Rocksmith game for around 390 days, and I was pleased how well I attempted them.
