Ok..I am stumped on this one.

My current strategy on this song is as follows
(refer to http://www.purplefrog.com/~thoth/guitar-hero/more-than-a-feeling-3.png):

Grab first star power (sequences during opening)
Grab second star power (sequences during opening)
Use star power immediately after second

Whammy 3rd star power (extended Red note)
use star power right way after 3rd

Whammy 4th star power (extended Blue/Orange chord)
Whammy 5th star power (extended Red note)
Use star power right away after 5th.

Whammy 6th star power (Yellow/Blue chord)
Whammy 7th star power (Extended orange)
Whammy 8th star sequence (set of chords following solo)
Use star power immediately

Grab 9th star power (yellow/red/yellow sequence)
Whammy 10th star power (Red/Blue chord)
Use star power whenever

Miss the 11th star power..I'm already full from the 9th and 10th sequence...and grabbing this one alone does not net you enough to activate...so I can't see how to incorporate this one.

Using this method, and nailing 100%, I managed top 5 here....however, the top 2 guys are 4k ahead of me....so there must be a better way than the method I described above.

What is the secret?

have you thought about not whammying 10th, and just using it after 11th?

The "secret" is the 4th star power.

You can gain half a meter of star power by whammying it exactly at the start of the hold.

Then you can activate right afterwards when the main melody picks up again and follow your strategy for the rest of the song.

I must be missing something here because i suck at star power paths but to me this one seems weird, wouldn't it be better to delay the 5th activation so that it covered the notes in star power 9? Even without it you get more than a full bar out of Star powers 10 and 11.

Yeah, you've got whammy room to spare before the chords come in.

This new path might be the one Ech uses...as he clearly has a better path.

Well i just did it and got 284085 without the critical whammy which i can't get because of my damn left handedness

Still a 7k improvement though, thanks

Don't know if anybody else is still reading these, but delay the last activation to the third set of GY chords and you get an extra chord at the end.
