Song 14 - "Blitzkrieg Bop" by Ramones

Because people generally only see themselves in a mirror, and freak out watching themselves normal so cameras default to mirror view quite often, often in streaming as they watch themselves in action

Not a good reason but it is the reason

Uff, this is a tough one to get sounding good. Lots of pretty quick chugging. I missed a note at one point but I think I did the song justice.

I did try playing this with a pick but more as an experiment to see how far away I was from being able to play at that speed. The answer was ā€œa lotā€. Maybe I’ll return to it in a few years when I can pick that fast.

Sounds petty good to me!

If you only missed one note here you’re doing awesome lol. Lots of notes!

Song #14, Blitzkrieg Bop, has been on my short list for a while. I tried a few weeks back and my speed wasn’t quite there. I’ve been working on other chugging songs and exercises ever since and I think I have the speed, but now I need the control.

This one is pretty rough around the edges, but it’s punk, right? It’s supposed to be rough and edgy! :rofl:

I’m treating it as a bench mark. I’ll come back to this one a few weeks from now to gauge my progress.

Pretty darn good job here. Minor issues but great job overall and excellent chugging and keeping time!
