Panic Attack by Dream Theater
This is one of the hardest songs EVER to FC. It takes so much not to choke. Im so happy I finally got it!!!
THERE IS AUDIO. The Audio is from a different run because stupid me forgot to plug the sound into the gamebridge. Anyway now that Im done with the 83 I was going for, Ill will be taking requests now, so feel free to do that.

That makes 9 – the whole Judas Priest Screaming for Vengeance album FC’d on guitar – only about 3 tricky songs, but still a good album, and a worthwhile download. Next up is all gold stars (and hopefully 3-4 FCs) on the Megadeth album.
Enjoy

Judas Priest – Pain Killer
This is probablly the hardest song solo wise. I choked some easy parts but its still a good run. I no its laggy i had an LCD tv that no matter how i calibrated it it still was laggy. but i still managed to pull this run off. Enjoy

Judging by how 2010 has gone so far, I might have numbers 1 through 8 for my best guitar dlc at the end of the year. Holy shit, this album has no weak songs on guitar save for Dawn Patrol which, in a Rock Band first, has no guitar part. This was absolutely brutal to sight read and I’ve had some other things on my mind lately so I played really for the most part.
It’s strange because I don’t really like metal, but this is the best DLC since Maiden in my opinion. I just really like Maiden and Megadeth. You can expect videos of better band runs later on when I’ve had time to digest everything. I’m pretty sure this album will destroy all the guitars I have since I downstrum 95% of this album. There were many points throughout the album where I had to just stop and recalibrate my head and hands.
Sight reads right here and we all completely killed the start of the song. That’s awesome. I lost track of how many solos were in this song.

This song is fun as to play, though the gold cutoff is pretty high. I estimate it’s about 50k above the score I got here, and I thought I did better than that. Ah well, I’ll practice and try again later.
Part 1 contains Pinball Wizard, Baba O’ Riley and Who Are You.

This is also a 2nd run, not a sight read. I want to say it was a combination of playing like and knowing the GH2 chart so well that the distinctly different charts threw me for a loop. None of that changes the fact that Hangar 18 is finally playable again! I only own RB guitars because my GH stuff died and so I haven’t played GH2 in years and holy did I play a lot of Hangar 18 in GH2. Felt incredibly similar and different at the same time. Good stuff.

YAY – as far as I know I’m the first person to gold star this.
And before anybody gives this song shit, I REALLY like it – great that they’re finally including some good old fashioned death metal in a GH game.
Quite a to get gold stars – the cutoff is remarkably close, and if you miss more than 4 or 5 times, forget it.
However, I definitely think this song is quite FCable – there is no part I have yet to hit, although hitting them all in one run is going to be the problem.
Enjoy!!

To answer one of the most common questions (What pedal should I use without paying hundreds for a kick trigger?), for the money, I recommend the “Destroyer Pedal”, which gives zero double-hits, it’s metal, and it’s great for using heel-toe with. (Better than my DW5000, actually, due to DW’s short footboards.) You can get it at http://www.rockbandpedal.net/ Note: Only the Destroyer-D is compatible with GH:WT.

Info on my Drum Setup: http://rockband.scorehero.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5894
FAQ
1. Do you play real drums too?
Yes, I do. I’ve been playing drums for a little over 5 years now, focusing mainly on trap set, with some limited hand percussion experience as well. Before I learned to play real drums, though, I also played Drummania, a drum simulation game made by Konami and part of the Bemani family of music games. It really got me interested in drums, I highly recommend it if you can find a machine near you.
2. What do you use to play Rock Band? Is your kit modded or something?
Please see the link above entitled “Info on my Drum Setup”. For Guitar Hero World Tour, I use the same drum kit, but run it through the WT stock kit’s MIDI port.
3. How much did your setup cost?
The Roland TD-6 SX-T that I use goes for around $2000 on Musician’s Friend, probably cheaper if you look on ebay or Craig’s List.
4. Wow, that’s a lot of money. You really spent $2k just to play Rock Band?
Nope, I bought the Roland kit months before Rock Band came out to do some recording and session work. I also badly needed a quieter way to practice drums in my apartment; an acoustic kit with silencers just wasn’t cutting it. It was just very good fortune that I already had the kit when people began discovering how to hook up MIDI kits to Rock Band.
5. Ok, but isn’t that kind of cheating? (UPDATED)
I suppose everyone will form their own opinions about this subject no matter what, but the official word right now is that it is not cheating. Posts on both ScoreHero and the Rock Band forums have been made about this mod, and both the ScoreHero mods, rockband.com mods, and Harmonix staff have ruled that this type of kit does not invalidate competitive scores. They have, in the past, ruled that any sort of double-bass pedal mod would invalidate such scores. However, since the release of the Guitar Hero: World Tour drum kit, it has become possible to use two stock bass pedals without any further modification besides a simple Y-splitter, and the kit can be used for World Tour and both Rock Band games. Accordingly, Scorehero now considers double-bass pedals legal and acceptable for competitive scores. For the record, I did use a double-pedal for certain sections of this video.
6. What do you use to record your videos?
For the direct-capture I use an Adaptec Gamebridge. You can get them from Amazon.com for between $30-$50 USD. For the external view I use an older Sony Handycam. (It still records on Digital-8s…)
7. Why do you usually only hit the bass pedal during the Big Rock Ending? Doesn’t that get you less points?
For an explanation of how the points gained from a BRE work, please see the description of my Run to the Hills Gold-star video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4w_e0WzXVd4
Alternately, search the Technique forums at rockband.scorehero.com for in-depth explanations of BREs for both guitar and drums.
8. Can I add you as a friend/play Band Quickplay/Score Duel/hang out with you?
I’d love to! Unfortunately, I’m just one guy who also has a job, fiancee, and is a full-time college student. So, what little time I do have for Rock Band, I’m usually spending either working on Solo Tour, or playing with my ScoreHero band, More Cowbell! http://rockband.scorehero.com/forum/v…
As for the friend thing, XBL only lets me have 100 friends, and I reached that limit a long time ago, and it’s getting very full of people I either know in real life or am in frequent contact with on Scorehero, so it’s really not likely. =/ Sorry. Don’t be afraid to send me a message, though. I can’t promise I’ll respond the same day or even the same week, but I’ll do my best to get back to you.

Please phrase all insults in the form of a question. Also, see question #8.

So I though this would be an alright song to start off my new youtube account. Fun song to listen to but boreing to play.
Yes the OD path was bad but, what ever. I’ll fix that in later videos.
The drumset i’m using is the Rock Band 1 stock kit, with the Sock Mod. I will be getting my Rock Band 2 drumset soon.
Here is a link to the introduction on the Sock Mod:

I’m also using the Rock Band 1 stock pedal. It snaped a while ago but i put a medal plating on it and wraped it with duck tape. It’s been holding out for some time now. But I orderd the Destroyer Pedal so I’ll be useing that.
Here’s a link to the Destroyer Pedal:

REALLY fun, somewhat challenging and short song, one of my favorites from the small selection of Audition-ready songs I have.
This took seven tries total, six of which i did in a row today, haha
Expect way more Audition/Rock Band Network songs in upcoming videos, as the majority of them are really fun/difficult. Most of them don’t have Overdrive charted either, so even with an FC i didn’t gold this.
You won’t be able to find this song on Rock Band publically yet: it’s a chart that http://www.youtube.com/user/doodlebroSH made for the song. If you want it, you gotta go subscribe to him.
How do you get it on Rock Band? Just check this video out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2pL4wvoP4M
And i’ve got http://www.youtube.com/malcolmgetscrazy to thank for this video, since he’s the one who linked me to that video up there explaining how to get XNA.
The drumset i’m using is a “GoodWoods” set, a sturdy, quiet, responsive set with great rebound: you can get it at http://www.goodwoodmods.com/
