Unlock and master "Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You Tonight" in Guitar Hero II. Strategy for Medium, Hard, and Expert difficulties, including the Trill Me section.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Medium: Focus on the four verses and the Trill Me!!! Section to maximize your score due to fewer notes. Use your pinky finger to reach maximum score.
  2. 2
    Hard: Play the entire intro and its repetitions in the solo sections using the GRYB position. Count the Trill Me!!! Section after as triplets (Y--Y--Y = 1--2--3 repeated). Hold the green button for the chorus as it consists of G and GR notes. Collect Star Power during solos and use it in chord-heavy sections like the chorus. The ending features sustains at a slower pace.
  3. 3
    Expert: Master the opening solo, which frequently includes Star Power. Shift your hand position after the fifth note of these solos. For the Trill Me!!! Section, strum once and use HO/PO (Hammer-On/Pull-Off) for the rest, practicing to get the rhythm right as it can be confusing. Be careful with the GY-GY-GB-GY-GY-GB section, as holding B too long can cause you to miss the first chord of the next set. The notes at the end appear to require fast strumming but should be played at a slower pace.
Tips
  • On Medium, the Trill Me!!! Section is a prime spot for point accumulation.
  • On Hard, the GRYB position is effective for the intro and solo sections.
  • On Expert, practice the Trill Me!!! Section and the GY-GY-GB-GY-GY-GB pattern to avoid mistakes.
  • Pay attention to the note pacing at the end of the Expert section, as it differs from its appearance.
