I have a problem with the long rolls. My hands think that they can only hit one note at a time, and not let the stick bounce for two

Woohoo! Passed Reaper on hard, then promptly failed that damn Police song. After that I passed the other songs in Moscow first try, then re-attempted the Police song and completed Hard!!! Stupid Reaper, had to save full overdrive and then use it the second time it came up in Outtro C. I then was able to finish the damn thing.

Yeah the rolls are easier than real rolls, but the timing is tough.

I have to admit, I did turn on left flip for Foreplay (expert), and then when Long Time came up I paused and switched it back. I don't consider it cheating since the option is right there in the pause menu, and since a real drummer can arrange their drums however they wish (though not usually in the middle of a song LOL).
This may not help that much though. The reason it helped me is because I have a really rapid fire right hand from playing real guitar for many many years. Worth a try though.

Update is live on the 360! I was asked where to save a new download content file (for caching) and it took the standard time to load my content. I exited to the dashboard and came back in and the "loading content" box only came up for about 1/2 a second. So nice!
The online music store is pretty sweet too, and I hope it pushes a lot more DLC sales for Harmonix. I'm sure a lot of people (casual gamers) don't know that there are new songs every week or how to get them from the dashboard easily. This will help streamline that.

I'm stoked for the update. I'll download it when I get home tonight.

Maybe the difficulties aren't as important anymore, but the youtube links are still warranted for some people before they'll make a purchase.

the FOB song took me months to beat, I couldn't handle listening to it for more than once in a row, so it took me ages.

That should satiate you classic-rock-heads for a little bit, to say the least. I know I'm in as well!

Hell yeah! Very pleasant surprise.
Glad I didn't pull the trigger on the classic rock pack in GH3 like I was thinking about doing a week ago...now the Journey song is the only GH exclusive.
EDIT: Saw this on YouTube, should be fun - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGLuA1cnB04
