    Repetitive, yes.

    Fun patterns repeated, yes.

    I don't understand why most of the songs on Guitar Hero aren't repetitive. They probably choose them specifically like that, because almost every song I listen to outside of this game has repeating guitar parts.

    Music follows a logical pattern, as I've come to realize over the years. It was never my strong point, but I think I've figured it out. Everything is in sets of 4. When playing a section (a measure, I guess?), you generally repeat it four times before you come to the option of keeping it for another four iterations, adding / subtracting an instrument, or changing it completely.

      That's known as generic music.

      It takes creative skill to make music that isn't 4/4 with 4 bar phrases. Which is why you'll never hear it in mainstream(ish) music.

              Umm, you obviously have no idea as to why I said it.

              YYZ is basically one of the two Rush songs just about everybody knows, and that switches between time signatures, none of them being 4/4. Thus, I was not posting about the fact that I played the song on Guitar Hero. Good day, sir. :3

                YYZ is in 4/4 the entire song except for the intro/outro which is 5/4.

                  exactly why i said yes. apparently I need to put sarcasm tags.

                  Got The Way it Ends, so now TTFAF is my only 5* left. Practice mode, here i come

                  lets see.... ranked 3rd on The Seeker (FC with path ftmfw), tied for 3rd on My Name is Jonas (technically im ranked twelfth, but its the third highest score). Ranked 1st on The Seeker and RYLAH on Hard, with 26 FCs on hard (played up to Black Magic Woman before going back to X for the day. hence, 26 fcs)

                  Only a couple more fcs till i get Enlightened Guitarist (20 FCs) only reason i havent gotten it yet is cuz ive been playing online

                        Try Impulse. Wicked fun IMO.

                        I can finally play expert steadily now, save for tier 8 songs and TTFAF.
                        Everything is so much better on expert.

                        Also, here's a list of songs to never play more than needed:
                        Kool Thing

                        Well that's about it.

                                Most of the encores on Hard are very, very fun. Including the co-op encores.

                                I didn't have fun with Pride and Joy on Expert. I had less fun with The Metal on Expert. That triples section is ridiculous. GYB GRB GYB GRB GYB RBO GYB GRB GYB GRB YBO RBO RYB. Blargh. I only hit the GYB GRB sections and ignored the rest.
