Very nice job on this. If you were curious, I didn't necessarily just stop when I got to the nice, round number of 2,000 stars. I took a look at what I could conceivably add, and realized that the stars I'm missing are a pretty good indication of my skill level re: what I can't do.
In other words, I may have been the first person to hit the nice, round number, but you're a multitasking force to be reckoned with. The large lead I had on voxtar that you mentioned before did not save me from your wrath 
Nice job.

Mark my words, I will 5-star this POS before Rock Band 2 is released.
(or possibly I won't.)
The picture above isn't meant to show a good score. It's meant to show a 564 note streak. I believe there are about 440 notes at the beginning, before it gets to the "fast part". My previous best note streak was somewhere around 450. So the accomplishment here is that I comboed through a good chunk of this tonight on my first run through. Unfortunately, I dropped my sticks a couple times later in the run, and got a blister on my right index finger after run #5. I didn't improve my high score tonight (a very low 4*), but I'm happy with the streak.

That's the second best streak I've ever seen.
This is a fact that you should not be ashamed of, as the first best streak I've ever seen would be incredibly difficult to beat.

How is it that you have 19 more solo stars than I do, yet you haven't hit 100 million points yet?
GET ON THAT!

22 now, but who's counting.
100 million will come when it comes. Unless it doesn't, in which case thanks for making me feel like a scrub.
bump for...
August 17, 2008 - More Stars (2022 total)
(thumbnailed and linked for your convenience.)
  
  
  
 
More stars!
I knocked out another mess of 1-man 2-part 5 stars this weekend, mostly on drox, but a few here and there on voxtar and voxbass.
Most notably, probably, is that I finally got TKAR on voxtar, giving me 58/58 5* there.
I was also pretty proud of the Dead on Arrival drox, as I tried that one many times just a few weeks ago, and couldn't get it. Got it first try this time.
The 8 stars I'm missing:
RTTH (solo Drums)
RTTH (Drox)
RTTH (Voxbass)
(seeing a pattern yet?)
Outside (Drox) -- I can get this I think
Detroit Rock City -- I suck at both drums and vox on this - doable perhaps
Timmy (Drox) - probably not going to happen
FPLT (Drox) - I can get this within a few runs, I think
WGFA (Drox) - not sure I can get this..
2024 or 2025 seems reasonable at this point, before RB2 comes out. Those last 5 or 6 though.. not anytime soon, I don't think.

Re: 2022 solo stars
This is a seriously enormous accomplishment that people are missing out on if they haven't seen it.
There are tons of players on ScoreHero that could 5* an entire instrument's setlist, many who can and have done the same for multiple instruments, but not many who can do all of that for all solo instruments plus the three multitasking configurations. You're 8 stars away from doing just that.
HUUUUUUGE PROPS.

bump for...
8/24/2008 - 100 Million "solo" points. (also 2025 solo stars)
In a long-standing tradition of doing what socialskills does, excpet I do it a month or so later, I finally hit 100 million "solo" points across all 7 possible one-man combinations. (4 instruments solo, plus Guitar+Vox, Bass+Vox, Drums+Vox)
As of right now, my point totals are as follows:
| Code: | Guitar 8,673,902
Bass 8,522,806
Drums 10,204,815
Vocals 10,076,741
Voxtar 21,291,656
Voxbass 20,949,868
Drox 20,731,320
Total 100,451,108
|
Along with that, I picked up star #2025 by 5-starring Timmy on drox and RTTH on voxbass (2 songs/combinations I'm glad to say I'll never willingly do again.) I also picked up a 5* FP/LT on drox a few days ago. And I have set a new goal of double-FCing GG&HT on drums/vocals. I will concede the majority of the tambourine hits, which will likely prevent me from getting gold (any math/path whizzes want to verify that for me?). Perhaps I can swing the mic down and mic the blue tom during solo 2... though to do this without pausing seems difficult. (and pausing is for chumps.) Attempt #2 last night netted me a -1 vox and -2 or 3 on drums. I should be able to get it soon, if I get motivated to try a 9 minute song 10 times in a row.

Very impressive indeed! Very exclusive club you're a member of, there. =P Especially nice work on drum/vocals, that's a very tough discipline on the game...I only recently tried it, only on simple songs, and it proved tough. I'm sure you could up your individual instrument scores too, if you felt the need.
Good stuff!  What next for you?

So does that mean I hit 2025 stars a month ago, but didn't realize it? Because that'd be awesome. I don't want to have to drox anymore
You're 5 away from all stars collected!!! That would be a ridiculous achievement that would probably top all of mine (except for 3,255 stars in BWT solo, as no one else appears to have done it so far... /shameless plug), and I think you can probably do it.
...especially considering how much you'd love to play RTTH on different instruments over and over again.

mini-bump - 2 more stars tonight:
WGFA and DRC fell tonight. Just 3 to go... (Outside and RTTH drox, RTTH drums)
SilverSwift - thanks for the kind words. As for what's next? I'd *really* like to get those last 3 stars before RB2 comes out. outside/drox is possible. I'm just not sure, though, about either RTTH on drox or drums... Besides that... maybe 9 million on guitar?

Wow, very nice additions there, especially DRC. At least WGFA has large scope for points (though still crazily hard), whereas DRC requires a good drum run on a very difficult chart...and the vocals at the same time are no slouch either. Good stuff. I'm sure you can get 9 million on guitar, and best of luck with the other remaining stars too- how an Outside/drox 5* is possible is beyond me. =P

bump for sightread voxtar 2xFC and 0 streak on expert:
unfortunately no picture of this one, and no score to enter because it was with during some random BQP in the middle of a 4-song set but I managed to get a voxtar sightread double FC on "Something in the way". It's not the most challenging song on either guitar or vox, but it's only my 2nd voxtar sightread 2xFC, so it's not like it was a 'gimme' either.
Also, I was excited to discover that, along with Silver on Easy, Polly on Expert can be null-comboed:

Congrats! Even if the separate parts are not so difficult, voxtar sightread FCs are hot. 
Nice find on Polly expert drums. Mwa ha ha.

I have some follow-up questions, before I genuflect.
1. Is becoming a mod an accomplishment? I can't tell whether to congratulate you or beg for mercy.
2. Was your null-combo of Polly a sightread?
