Sorry, I meant the Hobby Store. I had forgotten the proper name when I originally posted.
Thanks, though!

How did you complete it without a bass?

I used the Lucky Spin feature several times until I received all of the notes to move to the next level.
I think I spent 21 LP total.

Using LP to complete an action is cheaper than the lucky spin I would think. Any action less than 2 hours to completion only needs 1LP to skip as opposed to the lucky spin that takes 3LP but give you no guarantees on getting a different note than you already have.
That's what I've been doing using them to skip the action.
I don't remember getting the option to skip otherwise I would have done that.
I plead temporary insanity.

If you click on a sim when they're doing something, it will tell you how much time is remaining on that task, and on the left of that little box is a yellow circle with "use" inside it and a number to the left. This is the number of LP you can use to instantly reduce the timer to zero, effectively completing that task now rather than waiting.

It's normally 1LP for any action up to 1:59, 2LP from 2:00-2:59, 3LP from 3:00 to 3:59 and so on. Therefore, all but the final microphone notes you can "skip" using 1LP. The microphone ones will cost 2LP, but if you let it go for an hour, you can do it for 1.

There's still no guarantee you won't get a duplicate song of course.

Ohhhhh, aw man. I totally didn't think about that. I'll remember for the next time. Thanks!
