Announcing... RiffMasters!

Just under 2 weeks remaining for Main Event Chapter 8. Take a non-rock song and metal it up as best you can!

Fully upfront, I thought the crew here would be 100% behind this ...was I wrong?

I guess we'll have to add more easy listening type challenges moving forward to better suit all you greybeards who are now enjoying the sunset of your guitar playing experience.

I am down like China town for this main event, It’s just been a hectic couple weeks and I’m too shot by the end of the day to grab a guitar.
I’m determined to get the song done in time though! I started on it in ernest this morning

Like always I have done so many versions. A drop version in D standard. I didn’t like it.
I started over several times. Mostly trying to find a good version of the rhythm section in my interpretation of Disco Inferno. Or as I call it “ Metal Inferno El Diablo”
To bad we are not allowed to use AI on the vocal track.
 
Here's the skinny boys and girls. @LiveeviL2000 has quite a bit on his plate right now and has asked me to do the score sheet that he's been doing and updating. Told him I can do that. Not sure how often he generally updates said score sheet, but best I can tell it hasn't been updated since the previous challenge. Pretty sure we've had some folk score points from the duels, side hustle and main challenge. I would update points if someone can let me know what those points are and for what. There's almost 200 posts since the last score update..... so need a little help here. Thanks...... @iblive

Sorry Rick I am of no help here.
 
One week remaining for the "Metalmorphosis Main Event"
6 days remain for the "Tranquility Base" challenge submissions
8 days remain for "Trick Bag" submissions.

Summertime is taking it's toll on RiffMasters!

By my count only TWO Main event submissions so far,
four "Tranquility" submissions, five "Trick Bag" submits.

Who's Done What So Far for Round Eight
names in green = stage complete!

Liveevil2000 - Onlyfans channel going viral
Clockworkmike - moved to Tibet, now monking around
Mitch Pearrow SJMP - overwhelmed with summer gigolo biz
Ku² - really blew it with "Sweet Serenity" post 4807
Ibmorjam - Cast a spell on all of us with his guitar wizardry (4773)
TVvoodoo - got into your head with "Ooh Ah-Ah" (4831)

C-Grin - Gave up The Dew for the hard stuff, Red Bull
Sapient - is asking his doctor if "Zonaprone" is right for him
SG John - waxing on, waxing off
Thatbastarddon - looking for companionship (squatch hunt in Montana)
Kerry Brown -
jtcnj -

Randy Van Malmsteen - is about to bring the fooking fury, or maybe not.
Iblive - is busy cataloguing his clever dad joke
BFT Gibson - is honeymooning with new Peavey
Aynirar27 - Had fun tricks stored up his sleeve post 4796, offered "Serenity Now" (4826)

>>> How You Can Take Part < < <
At least one “METALMORPHOSIS” Round 8 Main Event submission (post 4681 ) is due in this RiffMasters thread Weds. August 28, 7PM.
if you don't get one in, you WILL NOT be eligible for the Round 8 Main Event Community Vote.

Try the "TRANQUILITY BASE" Side Hustle for an easy 3, possibly 1 or 2 more! (Post 4789). Due August 27, 7pm. Trank goes to community vote for bonus points.
And don't forget to take a stab at the "Trick Bag" Guitar Duel for a guaranteed one, up to six points (post 4725) it's due august 30 7pm

ALL RiffMasters challenges are open to any TTR member, no matter how extremely over-talented you claim you are, just check the rules in the original
game post, then drop your submission in this thread. Remember, when virtual fruit is thrown your way, it WILL NOT STAIN YOUR CLOTHES and may
be returned! The only fail possible is NOT taking part in this fun and creative musical safe space!

Before Round 8 is complete you can earn all kinds of points just for trying! But once again, it's not really about points!
It's about creatin', participatin' and sharin' with fun forum friends, and maybe even poking 'em with a pointy stick too,
if you want, (not too hard, let's stay friends).

Other Game News, member @iblive is now in charge the scoreboard so @LiveeviL2000 can catch his breath.
I will advise him shortly of what I see as the most current standings so we can get a bead on scores before the coming votes.
NOTE there are two votes imminent.. One for "Tranquility Base" challenge for bonus points, then one for the "Metalmorphosis" Main event.

Happy days are here again
The time is right f'r jammin' wit' friends
Let's get together, 'bout a quarter to ten,
Come tomorrow, we'll do it all again

Jammin' wit' the boys, better let us make some noise
Girls love to watch, panties wet in the crotch
Must put an end to this stress and strife
I know I want to live the jammin' life.

Rumor has it, it's gettin' late
Time marches on, don't procrastinate
The clock keeps turnin', why hesitate?
You silly fool, this is your fate

Pop a can, a little moshin' and

Not a request, you better bring your best
Don't be a drag, cooperate,
Jump in the mosh pit and
Dominate, dominate

The imagery alone is awesome , how you managed to make Mr. Crowley solo sound like it belongs is bewildering. Beyond good.

@TVvoodoo Here's my MEC8 Sub

 
Mr. @TVvoodoo requested an updated score sheet. Check it out. I'm new at this, so let me know if there's an error. Thanks... your friendly substitute spreadsheet nerd @iblive .

It would appear we have movement in the Keeper of the Key for the Penthouse. Still a few days left in challenge and more points to tally. How much fun is this?
