Rock Band 3 Deluxe // Somebody to Love FC // 176,680

Pretty nice FC of the Keys chart of thi-
...this is the guitar chart? Are you sure?


This song had one of the biggest changes between the original charts and updated RB3 versions that I've seen - obviously all the keys parts that make up 80% of the song were moved to that chart which left most of the guitar part blank.


This was a pretty tricky score to get, both this version and the RB3 specific one have some pretty tough squeezes. With this one the acts in both the solo and bridge were super tight on timing, I only had one frame of leftover OD on the solo act and none on the back end of the bridge.

There were some small sustain drops almost entirely from grace notes with messy dynamic timing windows after sustains in the solo, but less than 10 points worth which is reasonably satisfying.
Could maybe have been a little less (especially since they hurt twice as bad since all of those drops were under OD) but I needed to calibrate for every bit of whammy I could get in order to hit the squeezes.


This score beat 1st place on SH by 5159 points.

Once again the tradition of playing Queen songs multiple times in this game continues, so I also got a score of 39848 on the RB3 version of this song - that run can be viewed here:
