I'm not sure if anyone else is seeing these glitches, or if it's just a handful of people. I also play on a PS3, so maybe it's only for this console. Anyways, here are the ones I'm experiencing.

1) About 1/4 of the songs will not show the drum fill area when you have half of the overdrive ready. The drum track stops, and you can do a fill and activate it, but the long bars showing it's a drum fill do not show up. If you're not familiar with the song, you think that there's just nothing going on there, so you dont bother to activate overdrive. Half the time I get 4/5 through the "fill" and realize it's not a rest, so i just wail on the drums for 1 second so I can activate overdrive, and it gets kind of annoying... especially in multiplayer when people depend on you to do fills in time.

2) Also within those fills, (never during "working" fills), sometimes it says i miss a note and lose my multiplier, even though i'm playing notes during a fill. This is much more rare, but when you're trying to FC a song and your only missed note comes from the middle of a fill, it's insanely frustrating.

3) The last one is also annoying/frustrating, and it happens on any instrument I'm playing. The video will start to be choppy, basically lagging but still "in time". You can play along with the music and be accurate, but it's impossible to follow along visually, almost to the point where if you don't have the song memorized you end up missing half the notes because of how choppy the video is becoming. So far the only way I've been able to fix it is to restart my PS3, but having it happen during the Endless Setlist when you're 2/3 of the way through makes me want to punt babies.

Has this stuff happened to you guys? Are you on PS3 or something else? Any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks a bunch!
