I beat the game a couple of hours ago on expert. Now I can finally play pro faceoff!

Freebird was giving me trouble, for the same reason Hangar18 was giving you trouble, except several times worse.

You know how in practice mode, the section labels for Hangar18 go "solo 1, solo 2... solo 7!, solo 8!!, solo 9!!!"? Well, in Freebird, they go "solo a" through freaking "solo s". Plus, it takes 5 minutes of slogging through the easy beginning to get to teh solos.

With a few hours of practicing HO/PO runs, I finally got it. Didn't even really need star power that much.

I find that after about an hour of warmup, I basically go "into the zone". I play like a machine.

My main problem is that on sustained repetitive sections, I basically get tenser and tenser, waiting for that flub that it makes it extremely difficult to recover. In the zone (or maybe after a bowl), I stop building up that tension, and get higher hit rates.

Narr:
Freebird is easy for me.  I've beaten the song on Expert in Quick Play.  It's probably from the years of having heard the song, but it simply doesn't have any parts I find overly difficult, despite the length.  Guitar Solo 7! and then 9!!! on Hangar 18 slaughter me.

Also, a friend recently pointed out a neat webcomic to me and I found this while going through the archives.

Storm Rider:
Basically, the point of Hangar 18 is that Marty Friedman is a better guitar player than you.

We're basically opposite in playing styles I guess. Hangar18 was pretty easy for me.

I don't find any parts in Freebird too difficult, except for going off time in long trill sections.

I love pro-faceoff mode. My roommate and I didn't bother with the easier difficulties, so it took us a while to get to try it out. It's awesome.

This one's pretty good, too:
