The Battle of the Bands (ライブコンテスト?, Live Contest) is a bonus feature in Rhythm Heaven, unlocked after the player has completed Remix 10. It can accessed by tapping the right-most button on the blue ribbon in between the Rhythm Games sections.

On the entry screen, two buttons labeled "Beginners Enroll" (for the ★Basic Course★) and "Pros Enroll" (for the ★Technical Course★) are shown. To enroll, one must first complete all the Guitar Lessons in the ★Basic Course★ or the ★Technical Course★ in the Medal Corner each with at least an A Rank, then the player can enroll in the respective course.

Gameplay

The game takes place at Rock 'n' Roll Hall, where the Rockers are going through the songs from the ★Basic Course★ or ★Technical Course★ of the Guitar Lessons, after which they can place 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th in the results.

In the ★Technical Course★, if the player does really well, they get to play "That One Song" at the end.

Controls

  • Tap: Mute strings
  • Tap (Hold): Mute strings/Prepare to strum
  • Tap (Release): Cancel
  • Flick: Strum
  • 🅁: Bend notes (Righty Mode) (★Technical Course★ only)
  • 🄻: Bend notes (Lefty Mode) (★Technical Course★ only)

Timing Display

  • Perfect!/Ace!?: The player strums correctly, causing white bolts to appear. The audience cheers.
  • Early!/Late!?: The player strums slightly off tune, causing blue tears to appear. The audience claps.
  • Miss...?: If the player strums at the wrong time, the strum is very off tune, causing yellow vines to appear. Regardless if the player strums at the wrong time or doesn't strum when they should, J.J. Rocker sumbles over, and the audience boos.
