Superb Rick! I'm not sure if the nose wipe is an authentic VH move but I'll take your word for it :-D

[Mr Smith]

Yeah I thought your 5th attempt was the better one rick! Have a donut to keep your energy up!

Sounding awesome too mate

[zombo]

Great to see you posting again I am not suprised you where cream crackered it is a very demanding exercise indeed well done Rick !
Trust Tomahawk to notice the nose wipe should have had Kaz catch the dangling chad with a tissue !
Great playing Rick I can tell you are determined to master it completely you Van Halen fan you !

Looks good but I only get a few seconds of video...is there suppose to be more? Keep workin at it...it is a tough one.

[Stew]

Hat off to you Rick for sticking with this one. It is a major brain cell Zapper and you have done a great job and have the titanium nuts to do it on video as well. Rep point dude and big beer when i come down for jam before you go to Cyprus.

Nice one rick, you got to be close now, Im tryin my first van halen one out now Panama its a lot easier than Eruption lol

[Rick]

wait till the next one stew, it'll be rockin!...


yzr yeh the whole track should be there!!!


what i'll do next time is go throught it as fast as i can but staying accurate on video then hammer it, see what results we get!

I'm taking my micro cube to cyprus in the morning and will have plenty of time at night to really get it nailed i hope.

see yah when i get back ;-)

[siN]

Rick, I know the song just too well (not playing, but hearing) and you're getting closer and closer....

Keep up the good work.

BTW. Watch your gmail account!

[YZRob487]

hmmm seems no matter if I save it or just open it. I only get a few seconds of it. Would you happen to have another link or something?

[wahwah]

Not too shabby Cyprus Bound chap! :thumb:

[YZRob487]

Hey I was finally able to see the whole thing. Not too shabby. Looks like you got the notes right and your tone seems pretty close. Keep practicing. If you don't mind me making a suggestion. Break it down into parts and practice each part separate. Don't worry so much about spead. Best to play smooth instead of fast, the speed will eventually come (I have trouble with that part myself lol). It's a tough one, be patient. :thumb:
