    woooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

    Finally passed Don't Fear the Reaper. So I was finally able to beat Drum Solo tour (I could already do tier 9 but I couldn't get there because of the ****ing ending of DFtR).

        I don't think so. The bass patterns are trickier because you use it for every 8th note while doing 16th red streams and off-beat blue notes at one part. RttH bass patterns is easier, making the song itself easier than the solo.

        I still can't beat The Reaper without using overdrive near the end of the solo.

          oh

          that's probably one of the songs i can do well inexplicably but most likely thanks to my edge of knowing real drums

            It was sad 'cause I could already 5* tier 9 stuff but I couldn't finish tier 8 because of DFtR. I think my problem was that I was slowing down at the end (it felt like the song was rushing but that might just be my perception) and that the timing windows are tighter because everything is a 16th note. RttH is all about concentration and keeping up with the BPM changes, which for 3 minutes isn't that bad.

            I was more surprised that I passed WGFA sightread (came close to failing before the organ solo but nailed the drum solo and had no problems the rest of the way) and Next to You (I'm bad at syncopation that fast).

              Does any one find Flirtin' With Disaster a really fun song on Expert Drums, it's my favorite song on drums for RB, next to that would be Tom Sawyer.

                Flirtin' With Disaster is one of my favorite songs on any instrument.

                  I think it's really fun to play, but I don't like what comes out of my TV's speakers when I do.

                    Scored some DLC just now, Beethoven's C*** is an amazing song. Holy **** I couldn't stop playing it.

                      Any chance of seeing a video of that?

                          Yeah, I could definitely do a video of me doing real drums to a Rock Band song, it'll just have to wait until my lung heals up enough to do real drums again rofl

                          I can't decide whether I should do something repetitive that I won't screw up (i.e. Don't Fear the Reaper) or something impressively difficult that I will definitely screw up (i.e. Won't Get Fooled Again, or possibly a Metallica song - ooh, and I could even add the double bass).

                          It's about damn time they made the shop accessible in-game, going to the Marketplace on the Dashboard drove me crazy.

                              Just got it.

                              Yes.

                              A few of the fills are going to be a pain, but whatever.

                              Also, I just decided it was time to cash in one last EA warranty and so I've stopped playing my drums like they're glass. Instantly, I 5*ed a some things I hadn't before and 5G*ed a bunch more, too. To put it in perspective, I raised my drum solo rank from 800-something to 600-something in an hour.

                              God I wish the drums didn't break so easy.

                                Nice. I've never played my drums with too much subtlety because I know that I can get free replacements. My yellow pad is wearing down a bit, but it still works fine (some fills it's kinda iffy but whatever).

                                On vox I've been steadily improving my career rank; right now I'm ~325 on XBL. When I go through and fix all of my sightread scores (I've already turned lots of 3*s into GSs) I should be top 200. My goal is to get top 100 (I think I'm 1.2 million away ATM).
