    That's one of the few I have left on the disc to do on Expert, it drives me nuts because I just can't wrap my brain around it. Antibodies is another one, but that's nowhere near as bad, because I've just got to practice doing the outro consistently.

    I know the week just started, but I'm feeling a little chipper that I five starred Imagine on Pro Expert Keys today without too much practice. It's not too hard, I passed it on a sight-read, but it's still encouraging to improve on a song that quickly.

    i had a great week, i been off network for about 4 weeks now when i left i was at about 268Mil at 654Mil currently! I have finally achieved 5 gold star's on everything except pro guitar/bass and keys. Just ordered a keyboard looking forward to tackling all that. My true passion is drums, im finally playing pretty much everything at above 90% on hard and playing a lot on expert, though i must say if anyone has some tips on getting 3 stars on llama on pro drums, i could use some help last song to complete on expert, just cant wrap myself around that song has not true drum rythm to me anyway.

    Antibodies is nuts as well. I still can't understand that ending and I definitely need no-fail mode to get through it. I've learnt though that if you can master the start (not too hard), then the ending need only be adequate. And since there's 3 parts to the ending, only Part C is insane. So get Parts A and B right as well and you should be okay. ;)

    The easy part about antibodies on any instrument is that it only has 2 patterns throughout the song. The hard part is that those patterns are damn annoying/fast. Still got the bass fc though :p

    Congratulations! I don't think I'll ever FC it, I'd be happy with Gold. I'm happy right now with just 5 on it. What's annoying is that it's hard on everything I play, Guitar, Bass and Keys (not Pro, but it's hard on Pro too, just I don't play Pro Keys). Also, that Bass is faked as it's actually just synths.

    Picked up my third devil-tiered gold star on pro drums this weekend, "Foreplay / Long Time." That was one of only two devil-tiered songs I gold-starred in the RB1/RB2 era, so it was nice to finally push it back into gold.

    "Once more for the muscle memory."

    Okay, I admit it. There are several songs where I resort to two-handed play on pro keys. For one song in particular, "Something Bigger, Something Brighter," I made the switch to two-handed play yesterday. I actually can play those riffs one-handed, but like clockwork, halfway through the song my arm starts screaming bloody murder and my aim goes right out the window. That's when I figured I'd save my arm and relearn the song with two hands. I had just about gotten to the point where I match my previous one-handed best when I decided, "Okay, not bad. Once more for the muscle memory."

    That's when I absolutely killed my previous score. And without killing my arm!

    Parallax II? That a song? I know it's an album by Between the Buried and Me but there are no songs from it in RB.
