Well, I'm sure most people aren't in this same predicament that just happened to me last night so this is a topic about the fan cap somewhat. We were playing on medium, and we got to the Southern Rock Marathon (Mississippi Queen, Flirtin' With Disaster, and Green Grass and High Tides). We had appoximately 130,000 fans when we started. Well, we went down to 40,000 fans cause we kept losing and then we finally beat it on easy still gaining fans that we had lost but capping at 49,000. Green grass and high tides is an amazingly hard song on the drums, even on easy, for me anyhow. Then we played a show where we could gain triple the fans if we five star everything or lose triple. Well it was don't fear the reaper, and needless to say we didn't five star it. So we lost 30,000 more fans. We are at 18,000 fans now. LoL! So the fan cap won't hit us till much later, but we still have like 350+ stars. :-)

For me, I think this is well thought out. Cause if I'm losing fans on medium, I guess I am not ready to even attempt hard yet. :-D

So if ya loose the fans do you lose venues and If ya still have all those stars whats still open.

Once you unlock a venue it stays open. I think.

you keep the venue but lose the ability to play some of the songs.... they will be grayed out. GF and I were playing and she switched to vocal on easy and one mystery setlist (damm you metallica DLC) later we couldn't play any of the new songs.

Hehehe, reason why i haven't downloaded any Metallica. :-) Anyhow, we are back to 120,000 fans or so and we are going to try Enter Sandman by itself. It's just that one song. Juke Box Hero is pretty hard too that I downloaded. As long as I don't get Green Grass and High Tides ever in a Mystery Setlist I'll be set. We had do that one on easy, and it was still tough
