Happy Friday everyone, hope you all have had a great game filled week. Its been a while since I posted my intro and feel that its time to check in now that I completed my first Saturday Night Headline!
Cards
Lineup
Nothing has changed in my lineup, still using Dan and the Gran Casa drum I got in my first pack. While I would really love to get some new cards and packs I decided over the last few weeks to instead buy the EnergyBoost1 or Cold Pizza.

Purchases
I slowly worked my way up to 10,000 starbits purchased a slice. From here I found that earning star bits was a lot better if I used the slice only after accumulating a lot of drunks and hoping I would also find slices from missions, this worked pretty well and soon I worked my way back up to 10,000 starbits and purchased my second slice. Wow did this increase my ability to get star bits. I debated a little and decided to go for a 3rd slice and within the week I earned enough and purchased a 3rd!
After I got the 3rd slice I was rocking on earning more starbits than I ever have which I am saving up to buy the multi pack deal.
Missions
Ego
Since my last check in I broke level 15 not long after and started gaining ego. At first I didn't notice this and it got pretty high, I soon started taking lessons, built up a nice buffer and learned how to better manage the ego gains. I now will spend an entire day doing music lessons to keep up a nice buffer and keep my ego low. It also helps to have 3 pizza slices I can use so that I can keep doing lessons all day while I'm working, often not even needing them as I will find a pizza slice, but not always.
The big day, Saturday Headline
How??
So you might be asking how did you do it? It takes 300 fans and you only have Dan, and while Dan is cool he only has 50 fans. Well it was a string of lucky missions and having the 3 pizza slices that let me complete the mission.
It all started with me doing my typical mid week support slot missions, without finding a pizza or using mine I do 3 of them then a open mic night and follow it up with an illegal busking all hoping to find a pizza slice. I did this round and nothing, no pizza and I wasn't ready to use one of mine, having found no fans yet. After working some I turned back around to my laptop and had enough energy for an open mic night so I started it. When it completed I found not only a pizza slice but also a four leaf clover and got some fans!
Since I was full on energy again but didn't have enough fans to do a busking with a license mission I went back and started my normal mission rounds. I turned back to work and then a little while later hear the mmm yummy! I found another pizza and earned some fans. I earned enough drunk fans that I skipped over the busking with a license and went right to doing the midweek headline and went back to work.
When the mission complete I didn't get anything this time, so I did an open mic night and went back to work. Not long after the mission finished and again I found nothing. Here I had enough energy for an illegal busking so started it off, 5 minutes later I hear mmm yummy! Now that I'm powered back up I go and do another midweek headline and on its completion I get more fans and a coffee.
Here I had to take a break after finishing work and play with my dogs as well as eat some dinner. Soon though I was back starting missions. I had enough energy now and hadn't yet lost any fans that I started a busking with a license mission and went about doing other things. When I came back the mission was complete and boom I had found more fans, and not only did I find more I found enough to do a Saturday Headline! Now I had been close before but never broke 300 fans, so I had already completed 12 or so Saturday Supports so I was full ready to rock on.
I excitedly used another pizza slice and selected the mission and hit start!
After starting the mission, which was pretty late at night after playing all day it was time to call it. I went to bed still thinking wow I made it finally and of course you know I was right back in the morning taking advantage of the few drunk fans that remained.
Whats Next
Well next I plan to buy some packs. I'm still grinding out missions hoping to get another Saturday Headline but not finding that luck from the other day.
I hope you all enjoyed reading. If you're not yet playing you need to, not only is this a great game, there is great music to listen to and discover. Start playing Rising Star!
