    Ahh Bladder of Steel...one of my favorite and most memorable achievements. I'll never forget; I went for it on the first day of Christmas break in 11th grade, 2009. I did Expert guitar and managed to do it first try! Only came close to failing maybe 1 time. My biggest roadblock was actually...well, not being able to hold my piss; maybe 20-25 minutes from the end of my run, I just couldn't hold it any longer, so I ended up guesstimating when the song Battery was about to start (I knew it had a long intro with not too many notes - giving me a lot of wiggle room) and ran out onto my porch to pee 🤣 (I lived in a rural area so I was able to easily get away with this lol)
    I guess I don't technically deserve the title of "Bladder of Steel" but hey, I got every Endless Setlist-related achievement in 1 run along with a timeless story to tell lol

    If you think that achievement was a nightmare to get, wait until you get to the LEGO Rock Band achievement “The Final Countdown” where you have to 100% the guitar solo on the song “The Final Countdown” on Expert Guitar only, and it has to be in a regular run too. Kept trying to practice the solo and it is a nightmare to get because the guitar and bass engine on that game is busted a bit, and I could not get it. I could literally tell you it might give you the same crushed feeling too as I did.

Still finished the set, although I came dangerously close to failing Painkiller during one of the solos.

    My dad and I tried this together back in the day, him on vocals and me on guitar, both on Expert. We had planned this ahead of time with me using the wired RB1 guitar and him having a controller plugged in and using a headset instead of a regular mic. He used the headset so he could run to the bathroom if he needed to and still have a mic handy. I, on the other hand, had to sit there and take it.
    Anyway, trouble started brewing during Livin on a Prayer when our dog was pacing back and forth across the living room. Remember, we're both using wired controllers, so the inevitable happened, dog disconnected one of us. This pissed my dad off so much that he put her outside. From this point, we had already set aside the entire day for this, so we pressed on.
    As it turns out, during Visions, which was song #81 or 82, my wired controller decided to pretend to disconnect even though it was still plugged in. And if that wasn't enough, my dad made it so we actually failed Painkiller. So in the long run, our dog did us a favor.
    To this day, I still don't have this achievement, and it's one of two from this game that I'm missing.

      If you get someone else to pet-sit your dog for over 6 hours, get enough practice first before attempting, grab some supplies (make sure you don’t drink too many drinks during it or it will make you pee to force you to pause), then it’s a way to get the achievement once. Trust me, I did get it before and played the Endless Setlist 2 15 times up to this day. I just love Rock Band 2 to death.

I managed to clutch the rest of the setlist out after a break though. My right arm was dead for the entirety of the next day...

If I remember right I had just got the drum set for Christmas (0 drum experience) and decided I wanted to give it a shot. Around 4 hours into the challenge, it was 2 or 3am and my Grandpa told me to go to bed. I remember leaving my Xbox on pause just hoping it wouldnt crash overnight. I woke up around 8am and finished the rest. Never came close to your achievement (which I forgot existed until this moment) but completing this challenge on an instrument I had no experience playing regardless of difficulty felt good at the time.

    I did the endless setlist multiple times. One time I got together with some online friends where we were all going to play an instrument we weren't as good at and get the platinum icon for it (playing together allows you to revive each other and not fail the song). My internet was terrible and it cut out around song 60 and made everyone disconnect. The guitarist got really mad at me. I woke up the next day and did it by myself so I had a platinum icon for each instrument.

I probably would have done bass as well but if I remember right doing guitar also counts for platinum bass.

    I played this game so much in my youth, platinum my whole band, although I needed help to get the guitar and drum platinum. Peace Sells (But who's Buyin') back then I couldn't beat solo on drums and of course Visions on Guitar. Bass and vocals were a breeze, and I find it easier to beat the endless setlist on vocals, as you can sing in your own voice (just match the pitch.) I'd say in my lifetime I have completed the endless setlist 8 or so times, 2 times for Steel Bladder achievement, one for me and another for a friend online. Crazily enough, I too had issues the first time trying the achievement, one is with my dog who was running around and bumped my 360. She costed me the achievement 63 songs in, and $60 extra, to purchase a new CD. Power outage stopped another run halfway in, and my own incompetence by dropping my drumstick near the end of Panic Attack, I wasn't able to recover and failed near the last note. (Didn't try the achievement for another month after that mistake.) 😅

    Me and some friends decided to go for Bladder of Steel some months ago. We don't live close to each other so we had to do it online. Oh my God it was so scary haha. I had to make sure EVERYONE was playing on a wired/ethernet connection to lower our chances of randomly disconnecting. My dumbass was playing with a wireless guitar and the low battery alert lights were blinking towards the ending of the setlist. Our guitarist almost failed the achievement for us but we made a huge save at the very last second.
    Those six hours were a whole ass adventure. Good times.

    I got this one. I only got it on Medium, but under the circumstances I think it was justified. For some reason, when I was already struck with crazy insomnia, I decided that after I'd been awake for like 24 hours I'd have a go at it. I went to the bathroom, turned off the phone, put fresh batteries in the controller, put on the headphones and went to town. By the time I was finishing up I was a WRECK, but I did it. I think I started around 5 in the morning and finished by noon or even later. Delirious, elated, it was the most surreal and wonderful gaming moment in my life (even just at Medium lol).

    And on Visions, he smacked the cap clear off the button. We all freaked the frak out, but no pause happened! It was so funny 😂

    You should really go in and clean your Xbox. Open it up, dust it, and replace the thermal paste. Trust me, it's a game changer. Your console won't be loud anymore, or freeze. I imagine the reason it keeps freezing is because the thermal paste is dried out, and not pulling any heat off of the chips, so the console freezes due to overheating.
    So, clean the sucker out, and replace the thermal paste, and your console will thank you, as well as be more reliable.
    Also, it will last much longer than it already has. I'm sure the constant freezing and overheating is not good for its health.
