    Pro guitar marathon - live streaming all 307 songs for charity! (Nov. 3-4)
    Hello, Rock Band community!

    I'll be performing onstage this December at the yearly Rock Band event Umloud! in San Francisco, in a band known as Forever Alone, Together (we also have a Facebook page, if that's more your thing). We're one of two bands that's still in the running for the Headliner slot. The band that raises the most money for charity (in this case, Child's Play Charity) by the deadline gets the coveted slot.

    To help with the above, I'll be live-streaming a pro guitar marathon of all 307 songs. On the day(s) of the event, Nov. 3-4, the stream will be embedded on the band's donation page here:

    Live Streaming ALL the RB3 Pro Guitar. ALL OF IT. (Nov. 3-4)

    We're also promoting this as a Public Event on Facebook in the hopes of reaching a wider audience.

    The plan is to start at 10:00 am PDT on Saturday, November 3, and end around noon the next day. There's about 22 hours of music to go through, but the extra time is to account for load times and probably a few short breaks throughout. Songs will be played, on Expert, in order of increasing difficulty. Hopefully I can make it all the way through! Please tune in to show your support -- I could use the encouragement! :)

    I really like this idea. A few questions:
    1) Will "Santeria" be included in the setlist (it comes out tomorrow)?
    2) Will the Queen songs be played once (there are 6 repeats where the legacy charts (RB2 era) are terrible e.g. "Somebody to Love" charts the keyboard on pro guitar)?

    1) Yes, I'll be getting Santeria.
    2) I'll be playing both versions. The legacy charts are MUCH harder with the piano charted.

    The only songs I don't have are the three RBN songs given out as a promotional code with packs of Schick razors, but I'm not sure how to go about getting those nowadays, if it's even possible.

    Good luck! You must be super-good at Guitar, or are you playing with No-Fail mode?


    And you'll be exhausted at the end of this. ;)
