Is painkiller expert+ even possible to pass?

I haven't got Van Halen, but I checked out the video and the note path doesn't seem too difficult.

Once you've bolstered your endurance on the double-bass pedal to manage 5 minutes on near-constant stomping, there's nothing too tricky to handle, besides the occasional shift to what looked like 4/3 time and the tempo changes in some sections.

You want to see 'difficult' - check this one out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fKl6f8F0bM
It doesn't much help that the song is about as enjoyable as a root canal.

I haven't tried it yet but Hot For Teacher Expert+ looks waaaaay worse than Painkiller for difficulty/passing/etc.

It's not just straight 8th notes - what do you call it, exactly? Is there a term for it?

Semi-sightread, already played it in RB2, saw it on youtube, and heard it a bunch

I actually was able to play my drums today

But I agree Hot for Teacher is at least 8x harder than painkiller in my opinion.

EDIT: Passed hot for teacher, 3 times, 4 and a half * lol.

one foot, one pedal. almost 4*

and yea, HfT is WAY harder with one foot...prob a lot easier with 2 pedals but still, trompin left-right like that over and over again would be nasty...
