This song is so cool. I have a friend who even knows the history of YYZ and how the band got its name. I'll share the info. when I talk to him again.
FC this baby (I wish...)! |

YYZ is the song name, and it was chosen because YYZ is the airport code for Toronto. (Rush is Canadian) The very beginning of the song, where it alternates from G to B, sounds out Y Y Z in morse code. |

I've loved this song forever, but it's slowly driving me crazy in GH2. There's nothing overly hard about any of the sections, but I find myself myself constantly missing ~20 notes per run -- stupid flubs scattered in different places every time, killing streaks left and right. Bah!
I'd be curious to know what Star Power path people are using. I'm using 4-3-3-2-2 at the moment, but I've tried a lot of other ones and the scores all seem to end up in the same ballpark. |

weird
I just played it with SP and got 140k
Then I played it again to try to plan a SP strategy without using SP, and I got 140k again from 90% notes hit to 92%, same note streak and it felt like I did everything the same even the combo
maybe i got better or something

Once you get the SP from the fast strumming part and the R RB RB part at the end, when does everyone use that SP in the solo?
EDIT: After measure 77 is where I'm talking about. |

with my current strat (3, 3, 2, 3, 2) I dont use any through the solo (but, I've not done the maths, so it probably not the strongest strat), I can't keep much of a streak there, and I can't hit the end for the life of me, I guess slowing it down in practise and playing it over and over to get the fingering is what I need to do. (not for the points, just to look awesome) |

Yeah the end of the solo is a killer...I eventually learned how to do it with my right hand tapping the fret bar =\..it's pretty inconsistant but looks amazing if I pull it off, I'll check out your strat later. _________________

I always broke my combos in this part:
I solved this problem by switching the fingering from the natural 1234323434 to 1123212323. It's easy to switch back to the 'standard' position on the next red note and it helped a lot with 5*ing YYZ. |

I use the same fingering for that part myself and I never miss it anymore. |

Ja!!
EDIT: Whoops...League has this song ;)..will re-post in a week.
Make sure for the SP after the solo (the long G hold to R Y) Make sure you activate on the 2/4 measure during the Y hold (should be a thick measure line) _________________

Heres mine, got me 276k with 1 mistake on last part of solo, but should suffice for less than top players.
NOTE: Whammy all holds if possible.
1. Get 3 SP's, activate on measure 30.
2. Get 2 SP's, activate on measure 50.
3. Get 2 SP's, activate on measure 72, on red note of ascending RYB part.
4. Get 2 SP's, activate on measure 96.
5. Get Full SP bar from post-solo SP holds (measures 105-109, 112-113), get X4 multiplier, then use SP.
6. Get 2 last SP's, activate immediately on YB hold on end of measure 141.
Note on #6: If you were quick enough to get the SP under measure 121, still activate in same spot as directed.
It's not perfect, but it's a start. The measures are the red numbers in the note charts, right? _________________

3, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2 and waste the last one. You can figure it out from there. |
