During the morning session the Monsters of Rock class learnt how to play licks that would work over the chords that they learnt on Day #2. This included:
- Minor pentatonic licks

- Diminished licks
The class then learnt how to play Jimi Hendrix version of ‘Hey Joe’ and continued working on the performance of Velvet Revolver’s ‘Slither’. The class also submitted their band names:

- Velvet Rose
The class bands have now chosen their set lists and now have the task of choosing an image and designing a band logo.
