I could play expert on everything but vocals(I played medium). I don't really play much since I actually drum and my friends play real guitar and bass.

I use to be able to play expert fairly well but recently I broke my arm and with the cast in the way and since it was my forearm almost my wrist its difficult to move around since its so stiff. So I've been playing on hard.

Expert on all instruments. I played one song on GHII on easy the first time I ever played it, then rapidly moved up to beat GHII and GHIII on expert

I've never encountered a song I can't beat in Rock Band on guitar, vocals, or (obviously) bass, however I can't beat several 'impossible' rated drum songs. (Also Through the Fire and Flames on GHIII, but that song is programmed specifically to be impossible)
Also, I almost never get below 90% on any song except if playing drums.

I can't wait for Rock Band 3. I think I'll be pretty decent at their new Pro Mode, since I already play real guitar fairly well. Plus I've gotten sort of bored of the other instruments so I can't wait to play keyboard!

Expert player. I've beaten every song on expert from GH2 to GH5 (never played smash hits). 5 starred the entire GH5 setlist first try (twas one of the easier games). I beat TTFAF, but I didn't enjoy it and I hope never to play it again. I don't really like RB, so I've never played any of the super hard songs on it.

Expert drums.
There are about 3 songs I can't do though.

(Including Black Dahlia Murder)

I can do everything on hard though.

on guitar, i've at least passed every song on Expert, and i've at least 5-starred 90+% of them

on drums, i can consistently pass most top-tier songs and nearly all other songs on Expert

on vocals, i fluctuate wildly. i mostly sing songs i'm very familiar with on Expert while playing guitar. i can 4 or 5 star most of the songs i know on voxtar

I play hard on guitar hero. Playing on hard is sometimes challenging, but also easy enough to be fun and laid back.

Guitar: Hard/Expert (only high intensity songs I can't pass on expert, so I need hard)
Bass: Hard/Expert (only high intensity songs I can't pass on expert, so I need hard)
Drums: Medium/Hard (can 5 star on medium, but 3-5 star songs on hard)
Vocals: Easy/Medium (depends how well I know the song)

I own all Guitar Hero games released for Wii, and consistantly play Rock Band at a friend's.

I can play on expert until my hands give out. I get bouts of carpal tunnel pretty easy, lol.

I'm actually sort of embarrassed to play GH on expert. I feel it's categorized as one of those "girl-friendly" games like Wii Sports or Peggle, and being a chick I feel like I'm perpetuating a stereotype by being good at it.
...I play other games too though.

Expert on all but drums, which I use on Hard. I haven't played in ages though, so I don't expect to jump right back in without a warm-up. Never could beat that last song on Guitar on Rock Band though, there's just a tiny section that get's me every time near the end...

Oh, and I've never played any instrument on any Rock Band or Guitar Hero game on Easy. Straight to Medium and worked up from there, because I'm...hardcore?

Bass: Hard
Vocals: ...Mostly Hard, depends heavily on the Song
Guitar: Hard usually, except for the top tier of songs (in Rock Band)
Drums: Medium

I admit, when i say Hard it may just be "i get through the song without failing", but despite having played Guitar Hero and Rockband for quite some time and games, i never had enough ambition to really "work" on getting better.

I only play JamLegend, but there I always play on Insane or Legendary (the two most hard difficulties). On a keyboard!

Medium, my hands are too small to handle hard. For drumming I use easy because it's just 5 minutes of doing a simple drum pattern, and all normal does is make the pattern more frustrating. I never sing. It's annoying, I'm pretty good at the game but I always miss a note so I can never 100% it.
