Pulsatin' to the Back Beat.
Shoot 'em in the back now.
About 7:45 tonight, my (i.e. Damon Hyde) rendition of the Ramones' "Blitzkrieg Bop" passed a 100% during a Practice session on Expert, first try. So, why not, I thought, and proceed to my solo gig with that same song on Expert. It's funny how us humans can't always manage to do the impossible twice in a row, because I found myself spending the next hour singing the song over and over again. I wanted so much to replicate my 100%, so when the x4 multiplier broke, I had to restart the gig.

The trouble was I somehow forgot how I did it and it's the last line of the song that slipped me up. Apparently, the final "Pulsatin' to the back beat. The Blitzkrieg Bop" couldn't fill the multiplier streak all the way, and broke it. Then, things got worse. I totally lost the pitch or vocal quality of that line during one of the three times the line appears in the lyrics. I tried replacing it with "The Kids are losing their minds", but that didn't work very well. Here's the oh-so-agonising bit. When I missed an earlier part, I always almost manage to get the last line right. Must have sung it like 23 times.

But never mind. Here's my score, streak and 5 Gold Stars for posterity. Not really in the mood for that one anymore. I'll dedicate this to the Ramones.
