I got the game for Christmas for my 360, and had completed 57 of 58 songs on the Guitar Solo Tour within four days, as none of my fellow band members can match my nocturnal tendencies. So, to continue, my brother, the Bass player and my neighbor the medium Drummer, woke me up 6 hours ago, and we have been playing non-stop ever since. At the 5 hour mark, they were both sweating buckets and declared that they needed a break. Naturally, I didn't really want to, so I switched off to my Solo Career. Meanwhile, both my parents, some of their friends, and my neighbor's sister walked into the room, and my Dad saw GG&HT and started talking about the Outlaws concerts he had attended before, and asked that I would play it. Even though there were 7 other people watching, and there was a high chance of my failure, I couldn't pass up the chance that this could be the run where I beat it. 10 minutes later, I jumping up and down in ecstacy. Unfortunately, in my excitement, I forgot to hit the last note of the BRE and it cost me the 5 Star. But honestly, I haven't felt this accomplished since I got the BattleAxe on GH2.

That is awesome. Some of the most fun moments for me on guitar occurred while playing this song in a band.

I know exactly what you mean about the whole Jessica-Free Bird thing. Seriously, once I finished I could barely breath from how excited I was. And then I got my new guitar and had to completely change my look to match it.
