How to unlock the Champagne Room V.I.P. achievement in Guitar Hero II - Definitive Guide

*Some Skill Required*

Two ways of doing this:
1.X-Stream (Easiest way) :
You will need to 100% this song with a good star pattern.A perfect star pattern and easy to remember is always you star power when the triple notes come out.One of those section has star notes so use star power when you finish getting that extra star power.

NOTE:In the end you will have around 490-495k.Don't worry,just don't miss any notes at the end(not hard since last part is slow)

Once you have finished the song you will have 505k and achievement should unlock.

2.Free Bird (Hardest way) :
You will need to get around 95-97% with this song in order to get 500k.Basically you'll need to get the slow part perfected,Get a good 4x with solos,and have a good star pattern.

You can miss once as long is it's not before the Triple chords of YO chords, or the end.

I missed once and got 506k.

Always use star power as soon as you get the the triplets, except the first one, get the SP phrase first, it isn't the path but it's a lot easier to do.

A note to anyone trying this:
When you hear "The death of flying clowns" take note, because there's a weird variation in the pattern shortly after that in the song that only occurs at that point. Normally the song has BO, BO, B, Y, R, G. Shortly after that lyric, it goes "BO, BO, YB, Y, R, G."
Figuring that out definitely helped me, though I'm still not familiar enough with the chart to hit the 500K.

if you do X-STREAM on expert, how many times can you afford to miss? or do you have to 100% it?

I just scraped this on X-Stream, I missed one note but crucially it was one of the single notes when you get rows, I think if you miss on the triple notes you might struggle.

This is bullshit. Chords can suck my ass! The changes are too fast for my old fingers.

Attempted this last night with a broken guitar. It wouldn't work if I strummed up and star power only worked if I pushed the button instead of tilting it. I eventually hit 500k though! Thanks for the guide!

I actually got this missing two single notes (not a single chord lost).

X-Stream and Free Bird certainly work if you're a good expert player, but if you're not so good, try Free Bird on hard. I got the achievement with a score of 504,493, -27, and I didn't really follow the path all that much.

The best and most realistic way to get this achievement is to play X-Stream on Expert Guitar. The song isn't too bad, although you will need to play almost flawlessly, and use star power at the right time.

Use the star power path in the video below and get at least 99% (or 100%) to get this achievement, good luck.

An alternative is to play Freebird on Hard/Expert if your skill permits.

The easiest way to get this achievement is arguably to do it on X-Stream. You'll need to be very good at the song, you should be going for an FC with the 500k run, 99% at the very lowest. If you go to a website called ScoreHero there's a set of forums specifically for discussing different songs in the Guitar Hero games, on X-Stream's forum there is a topic which has an optimal star power path. Practise and memorize that path, and you should be able to get over 500k in a couple genuine tries. Don't give up if you're far into the song and it looks like you're not gonna make it -- people will often scrape the 500k mark so always push forward 'till the end unless you've missed a couple notes earlier (it's a good idea to restart when you miss notes, if you miss them in a bad spot then you won't get 500k and anywhere else you'll be cutting it very very very close and really unless you miss near the end it isn't worth the time to see if you'll be ok.) In general the song is easy, pretty much just a bunch of double-strumming so it's nothing complicated or technical. By far the easiest hard achievement in the game so if you're cracking down on the game you'll likely get it before Kick the Bucket or Start a Real Band.

I got this achievement on the song X-Steam on expert. This is an extra song so you will have to buy it from the shop. You can either do this in career or quickplay. When I got this achievement I only missed one note and I got around 505k. I only used star power 2 times I think. I saved it for the parts with the triple notes (green, yellow, blue). Use the first star power after you hit the triple note star power. It's kind of difficult for some people to still strum that fast while tilting the guitar but eventually you'll get it. The second star power you'll use as soon as the triple notes start again. You can only miss one note while using this star power pattern. Good Luck. It's actually not that hard once you play the song about 5 times like I did.

Ok, this is where i start telling you to try ALOT, this one is challenging, probably the hardest achievement in the game. There are only 2 songs i know of that this is possible. X-Stream, and Freebird. I have done both, X-Stream is WAY EASIER, but you need to 100% it. It will take a couple of playthroughs before you figure out where to use your star power to maximize your score. To 100% this song you need to master the 3 cord switches such as G-R-B to R-Y-O to Y-B-O and so on. With time and dedication you will join the VIP.

K_Dog's Picks
This is where you're put to the test. I'm only going to list songs that it's possible on:

Killing in the Name - Expert
Freebird - Expert
Fall of Pangea - Expert
X-Stream - Expert
