Is worth learning how to tap with 2 hands for that part and similar parts for other songs? trying to do it with 1 hand is hard enough lol. if so, whats your technique? like if you only tap orange with your strumming hand and do the rest with your fret hand |

There's quite a few different ways to do it. =P
To name a few:
1. Anchor the green fret button with your strumming hand, elbow strum, and "tap" with your fretting hand.
2. Anchor the green fret button with your fretting hand and tap the blues and oranges with your strumming hand while tapping the reds and yellows with your fretting hand. This seems to be the fan favorite.
3. Anchor the green fret button with your fretting hand and alternate both hands tapping with each note. e.g. One note you use your right hand to tap, the next note your left hand, the note after that your right hand, etc. This is my preferred method.
Ultimately it comes down to enough practice. _________________

I would recommend one-handing it. It's not that hard with practice, and it's certainly a lot easier to get a combo going again if you miss a note (because you don't have to elbow-strum). |

No don't do that. If you're just learning, learn to tap it. It'll help you way more in the long run. If you lose combo, you've played like 10 seconds of the song. You just restart and try again _________________

It sounds like he's trying to pass it, though, not FC it. One-handing lends itself to more consistency and it's easier to get through it if you don't have to strum with your elbow.
Unless you don't mind restarting the song all the time until you get it down perfectly, I don't recommend tapping this section apart from learning to tap in general. Each to his own, of course. In any case, be sure to experiment with any/all of the methods above on slower speeds to find one that works for you. |

To be honest, not a lot of people have the hand speed to even be able to hit enough notes to make it through the intro. I personally used a rubber band and quarters to learn the tapping by having the band and quarters hold down the green while practicing the tapping. _________________

Same. I used my left toe though and paused after the intro LOL _________________

I started playing a lot at lower speeds, holding green, playing red and yellow with left hand middle and ring fingers, and tap blue and orange with one finger, I use middle but it works with index too. It's hard to bring your right hand so fast so I start the song (R Y B R Y B O B) tapping only the orange, and then use the method.
Every note must be released almost immediately after being pressed though, or you'll be late for the next note !
I still use this method BTW. _________________

My technique is yet another variation. I hold green and play red with my left hand and tap yellow, blue and orange with my right hand.
If I remember correctly, the most difficult thing about going up from slower speeds was learning to lift your fingers quickly enough for the green notes to register before you tapped the next note. _________________
