Ten customs for August. These run quite a gamut, a couple of current songs, two from the 1950’s, and even one written in 1801. Composers run from Beethoven to Vivaldi. Yes, classic buffs, that Beethoven (but sorry, classic buffs, it ain’t that Vivaldi). Three songs were charted for guitar only – the rest are full band.

 

Let’s start with all the goodies from Beethoven:

 

OK, maybe that last wasn’t really written by Beethoven. Still, it is hard for me to resist any really bad pun.

 

Anyway, Chuck Berry is due for an appearance in Rock Band. Unfortunately, I an not much of a fan of his music, nor his, “Please, God, won’t someone teach me how to play a fourth chord” style of writing. There is only one Chuck Berry song that I really love, which is, of course,

The other songs this month are requests. For Rockin Rindy, we have some more Satriani, live.

This is a great song. Thanks for suggesting it.

 

Finally, FarCry2112 asked for Angel Vivaldi. Here are four of his songs:

Sea of Heartbreak is my favorite AV song – check it out. It is truly amazing. The last song, Carols of Hell, is a fluff piece, but quite a lot of fun. It is available only as a YouTube video here:

 

 

Be sure to look for the Holiday Greetings taped to his butt.

 

Speaking of YouTube, Moonlight Sonata, by Dr. Viossy, is also from a YouTube video, and his guitar skills are truly amazing. Give it a look – you won’t believe your eyes, or ears:

Thanks for the Chuck Berry!

I want to thank you for the experience of playing Beethoven in RB3, it was a lot of fun. Thank you.

Bsbloom, I just got through pillaging the rest of your thread, and I must say you have great taste in tunes and great dedication, especially to do customs over 10 and even 20 minutes!

 

If you ever decide to make “Lucky Man” full-band, look me up. I’d be happy to help out.

I played “Johnny B. Goode” on hard guitar, and couldn’t even make it through the song. Extremely difficult.

[bsbloom]

The solo is tricky, but seems playable. The rest of the song shouldn’t give you much trouble. Save up your overdrives for the solo.

 

Personally, I can’t come close to completing Moonlight Sonata, even on hard. That is the real killer chart.

would love some more dire straits songs ” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif” /> but thanks for the songs

[RBPUK]

I played “Johnny B. Goode” on hard guitar, and couldn’t even make it through the song. Extremely difficult.

 

Personally found this not too bad apart from the solo.

 

I found Roll Over Beethoven a lot more difficult – way too many notes with fast chord changes for hard. Shame – these would be great at parties.

I played “Johnny B. Goode” on hard guitar, and couldn’t even make it through the song. Extremely difficult.

 

Yeah, I gotta agree. Was looking forward to playing this, but it was ridiculously harder than it should have been.
