Just practice. Once you can keep good combos, your score will be high enough.

Sorry.

Do you have the VGS Player? Maybe it can help you learn the rhythms.

When I feel like I've reached a roadblock with a particular section of any song, I try to approach it using a different fingering technique.

In the first star note section in Texas Flood, for example, I usually have my index finger on the R button, but I must have tried 50 times using that technique. Trying it by shifting my hand down to 'Medium Mode' (index finger on G) I was able to hit it more consistently. As a result, I could then hit it more consistently with my index on G.

Another song I used diffferent techniques is Farewell Myth during the triple chord 'slidey' section. I ended up hitting the G+R, then sliding my index and middle fingers up to R+Y, then hitting the final R+B with index and ring fingers. I repeat this technique for the second triple-chord set. It improved my accuracy immensely once I changed my technique.

Another thing that helped me learn the timing of Expert songs was to play them on Hard difficulty, then go to the Expert difficulty. At least on an easier setting, you'll be hitting more of the notes, right?

Hope this helps! I just recently 5*ed Texas Flood - Expert after many dozens of attempts. I think out of all of those attempts I hit the HOPO Y+B run at the end of the intro JUST ONCE.

I'd love to be able to practice just those runs, then I'd be set for tackling Frankenstein and Fire it Up.

Good luck!

I just want to thank you and I'm glad I read this post.

I went from about 135k to 212k on heart full of black just from changing my fingering technique. Edit: Expert mode, also hapens to be my highest ranked expert song now

I was having trouble in the chorus when it went from the single note scale skipping yellow on the way back down to the GY chord. I was sliding from the last red single to green with my index and dropping the ring for the chord, this only worked about 50%. well I started sliding my pinky from the orange to the blue and then hitting the red with my middle and the GY chord with index/ring. this seemed more dificult to me, but I nailed that passage all but one time in the song, and I think i missed that one just becaues I got too excited.
