the best use of star power is to whammy the hell out of the first sequence so you get half a bar of SP and use it right away. this sets up the rest of the star power so that you can use it as soon as it is activated and not miss the next one in the sequence.
But if you do it the way I'm saying, you still don't miss the next SP.

Darn, looks like I already use sp the right way, I was hoping I was doing it all wrong and so then I might get the 5,000k I need to 5* this song.... I don't know what it is about this song that makes it so difficult for me....I've taken this song into practice more than Jordan and i've passed Jordan with a high 4* already!!!!

Any tips for the main riff for this? dun d-d-dun dun dun d-d-dun dun dun d-d-dun...that part. It seems like my hands always crap up during that part.


Try getting a steady alt strum going. Where it goes fast enough to hit all the notes, but slow enough to strum in an open area. (I can usually 90%+ it that way)

I always screw up this part:


And a SP phrase is during it, so that's a huge problem for me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I single strum the first three sets, then double strum the last one. That's about all the help I can give for that part.

I alt-strum that part (just like everything else). What exactly about that part is giving you trouble?

Sorry, I should have specified. It's the last set of notes in that part that always breaks my combo.

That part (as most of the galloping parts in any songs) are IMO easiest played with all down strums and then the last with D DUD D, so your right hand is doing constant downstrums throughout that whole section, but with that one note you don't only lift your hand, but strum upwards as well. I would do the main riff the same way too, as well as the riffs in e.g. Six. That way the rhythm keeps steady, with all alt-strums the strumming would sort of switch phase at the fast notes.

EDIT: Then I thought I'd check your score... so you can decide if want to listen or not.

2-3-3-1


This, of course, assumes you can combo the 16ths. If you can't, 1-2-3-2-1 is better, and if you can't get the SP in the 16ths either, 1-4-2-1 works. In any case, you might as well forget that the SP phrase in measures 85 and 86 even exists.

Strum at a steady pace for all notes up till the quick two yellows. Strum those two and then hammer on the next two notes.

I use 2-3-3-1 but I feel, because I can't combo the solo for the life of me, that using the third activation the SECOND you get it allows you to scrape 2 in for the last activation leaving you with a full bar. Activating it when the notes return on the first yellow gets rid of those yucky holds at the end :P.
