Easy "Bachman-Turner Award" trophy

Go online or with friends and have two guitarists and a drummer. Make sure all players' Overdrives are filled to the maximum. Have the drummer go first and activate his. Just before his meter runs out, have the guitarist activate theirs. Just before theirs ends have the bassist activate theirs. Each player will keep it going during the duration of the song, earning as you burn overdrive. Pay attention to each others' meters. At the end of the song you will unlock the trophy.

Easy "Band Savior" trophy

Play with at least two other people. Have one band member fail two times, bring them back in, and have the other band member fail one time and bring them back.

Easy "Flawless Drumming" trophy

If you are online, download the song "Charlene I'm Right Behind You" by Stephen and the Colberts. The drum line is simple, even under the Expert difficulty. Just practice a few times and you will unlock the trophy by no later than your fourth attempt.

Easy "Flawless Groove" trophy

Have lefty flip on. Select "So Watcha Want" from the Beastie Boys. Choose the bass under the Expert difficulty setting and play the song. The song only has green notes.

Easy "Flawless Guitar Solo" trophy

This trick is easy if you have songs from the original Rock Band transferred to Rock Band 2. If so, select "Wave Of Mutilation" from the Pixies. Play the song with the Rock Band (not the Guitar Hero) guitar. The solo is only about fifteen notes and are orange and blue. Use the solo buttons to play them.

Play the song "Give it Away" by Red Hot Chili Peppers. There are three solos, and the first one is the easiest. Just play on the solo buttons from the start of the song until you get to it.

Easy "Flawless Singing" trophy

Go to Quick Play or Tour mode and have the microphone available. Select "So Watcha Want" by the Beastie Boys under the Expert difficulty setting. When the song starts, put the microphone up to your speaker(s) and hold it there for the duration of the song. The only thing you will have to do is yell to activate Overdrive when it appears and tap the microphone for the solo parts. At the end of the song you will have a 100% rank and gold stars. Note: Make sure your volume is loud enough. Note: For just a gold star, select "Give It Away" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers and do the same thing. You will get a 99% rank without singing. If you want a 100% rank on that song you must be able to hit the last phrase in the song.

Easy "Million Point Club" trophy

Select "Foreplay/Longtime" by Boston. Two players must be able to play under the Expert difficulty setting and one player on at least the Medium difficulty setting. Finish the song with at least 97% each and you will have well over a million points.

Easy "Victory" trophy

Select Score Duel or Tug Of War mode. Plug in a second instrument and just play one. You will unlock the trophy just for winning.

Easy singing

While playing any game mode as the singer, on certain songs that do not require any pitches and it is just a single pitch, you do not have to sing at all. The singer will do all the singing on their own without you having to sing yourself. You can sit back and relax, and get 100% each time.
