Ha, I wish. No it's Hard, as you can see from my stat image I had 63/64 5*'d...trust me elx I'll never even PASS Jordan on expert let alone 5* it. |
Jordan isn't that impossible (I passed it and I can't even get FC in Shout at the Devil!!!).....if you make it through solos B & C (ALOT easier said than done lol)....My tips, practice ALOT (mostly solo B/C and then A for ending) once you get B/C to about 55-60% each, you're almost ready. Make sure to get full sp, and do decent at the triplets (or whatever) at end of solo A (try to keep in low-green) then DONT use sp until you have went up and all the way back down the frets in solo B (it will then take a short pause) and if you do good at the ending of solo C, you're good to go :D
I hope that made some sense lol |

Yeah that's basically what I've heard, except for the fact that my eyes usually pop out of my head and punch me in the face because I force them to try to actually see WTF I'm playing, because I have no clue half the notes are....I flail like a madman and then WHEWWWwwwww.. fail.
Great visual description, huh?
If you want I could upload a video of me failing Jordan over and over...*shrug* _________________

Know exactly what you mean there! I've got a decent Jordan score on Hard (277,374 - 36th at the moment) but just can't cut it on Expert, think 57% is the furthest I've got
Don't know if it's the leagues or the influx of new players (15,000+ users now!) but my rankings are slipping badly - on GHII Hard I've recently dropped from 23rd to 39th, need to grab me some SP paths and get back at it! _________________

Actually, that description is quite accurate lol, that's another thing, playing the song enough will also increase the ability to read those notes faster, because I now know exactly what the solo is doing but I need to transfer that to my hands I use to show that solo to my friends (in practice mode of course) and I would say "and here comes the wall of notes...." |

I know what you mean, one day i'm ranked 260 in Expert and after a week of posting no scores im 319! I remember a while back when I could go several weeks with not posting and still be #300 when I return..... |

Hahaha, I totally love the twist for this week. It's going to kill my arm, but it will be fun and hopefully I'll get a good score. I've passed Misirlou twice without alt-strum, so watch out. _________________

The Breaking Wheel? No alt strum? That won't be hard for me considering that's how I first passed the song lol |

That's actually about the worst twist ever. . . I'll play it regularly to improve my score and once with no alt strum just to submit something. _________________

Without your standings I don't think you'll need to submit that score but, eh, whatever...I hope your arm falls off halfway through ...kidding..
Hey I had to pick one and TBW sounded like the most interesting and consider I don't single strum anything I wouldn't know...so...sorry for the lame tiwst... _________________
