Wow...and here I thought no one could have been disappointed by Clint Eastwood. Would you also rather have done nothing in Smokin' while the organ solos were happening? |
You wouldn't have been doing nothing in Smokin', there is guitar through the whole thing. (Not saying they shouldn't have charted the organ solos, I don't know about the rest of you, but my "guitar controller" plays just as much like an organ with a strum bar as it does a guitar with one string and buttons for frets).

| I wonder if the solo bonus comes into account when they label solos. |

by leaked, does that also mean "not allowed to be linked to?"

You'll hate GH5, then. I can't remember exactly which song, but it has you play trumpet using the guitar. |

I've been wanting bass solos for so long, but I kinda gave up after there wasn't one charted in Naked in the Rain.  |
As the bassist of an IRL band that's going to release on RBN in the future, I can promise you bass solos. |

| One thing I have never really understood, and this is pretty off topic as well, but what's the difference between a guitar solo and a guitar break? |

my guess would be that generally guitar breaks are shorter. But I'm not 100% sure

I would say they decide in the same way guitar hero decides when to use purple notes.
A coin flip. |

It's the same as the difference between a grilled cheese sandwich made with Wonder bread and a sandwich made from home made bread.
No one fucking cares because they're both delicious. Jesus I can't believe this has hit 5 pages already.
