Anybody else not able to download "Time is Running Out" by Papa Roach? It says purchased on my list although i'm fairly sure I have not purchased it. I go to download again and it says not available... weirdness.

I would have said Alanis Morissette doesn't belong.
The Go-Go's are like 100x more rocking than her.

but Aqualung. AQUALUNG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here are a few Motörhead songs I would love to see:
(people who think their songs all sound the same should look these up)

Orgasmatron!!!
Killed by Death
Deaf Forever
Overkill

But Ace of Spades is great too.

IMO Motörhead is at least less guilty of all their songs sounding the same than The Ramones, and we have like three songs from the latter.

I really love this free song, it's got a great 80s vibe to it.

I wonder if the DLC announcement will be today or Monday due to the holiday. Probably Monday eh?

Totally forgot about Orgasmatron! I love the Sepultura cover of that. :) I doubt we'd ever see that one though, because of the title.

See the people walking down the street
Fall in line just watching all their feet
They don't know where they wanna go
But they're walking in time

They got the beat
They got the beat
Yeah
They got the beat

See the kids just getting out of school
They can't wait to hang out and be cool
Hang around 'til quarter after twelve
That's when they fall in line

Kids got the beat
They got the beat
They got the beat
Yeah
Kids got the beat


vs.

I want you to know, that I am happy for you
I wish nothing but the best for you both
An older version of me
Is she perverted like me?
Would she go down on you in a theater?
Does she speak eloquently
And would she have your baby?
I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother
...
And I'm here, to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It's not fair, to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know
...
You seem very well, things look peaceful
I'm not quite as well, I thought you should know
Did you forget about me, Mr. Duplicity?
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner
It was a slap in the face
How quickly I was replaced
And are you thinking of me when you fuck her?


Both would be equally embarassing to sing :lol:

What is even more embarrassing about the Alanis song, is knowing that it is about this guy ;)

Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy her music and it should be fun and open many more doors to have her song in RB2.

Michael Corvin 07-03-08 07:33 AM

Alanis should be a fun one to sing.

Damn i could go for some Femmes in Rock Band!

Yeah, I posted a while back that their debut album would be perfect for the RB treatment. Although language may be an issue.

There was a potential screen from RB2 found, with some potential setlist songs:

This was posted two pages back, about two days ago.

Not doing it today would be lame. Today is not a holiday.

Mad Dawg 07-03-08 09:59 AM

The Harmonix guys said that it'd be coming today. Normal 2PM Eastern on the time, I think.

RichC2 07-03-08 10:01 AM

It isn't going to change the fact it won't be available til Tuesday.

But it lets us make a formulated opinion earlier. When tracks are announced on Monday, I sometimes don't have enough time to make a decision, unless it's something I'm already familiar with.

For every song I'm not familiar with, I have to go find an audio file of the track (last.fm, youtube, etc.) and give it at least a couple of spins. If it's just announced on Monday, I may be working and not have that time. However, I've always got at least one day on the weekend that I can sit down and have time to do this.

Michael Corvin 07-03-08 10:31 AM

I posted on the Mike Portnoy forums about Dream Theater's Panic Attack and the screenshot to see if Mike or anyone there could clear up the leak. He's pretty good about answering questions so we'll see.

Or you could buy the tracks on Wednesday or Thursday. :)

What do you think I have? A PS3?

Or a month from now.

If you wait on something, you just get backlogged with DLC. Also, co-hosting a weekly Rock Band Club means I've gotta pretty much stay on top of everything.

Mad Dawg 07-03-08 11:14 AM

Thank God for Garbage. I finally got my friggin Flawless Drums achievement. :banana: The whole time I was balancing fear of flubbing (as usual) with fear that my crap-ass internet was going to drop and not register it. It dropped after the next song.

Congrats! I still need to get that achievement, and that songs seems like the easiest one (aside from that new Pixies DLC).

FYI, whether or not you're logged into the internet you'll still get the achievement, as long as you're just logged into your profile/gamertag.

Yeah, unfortunately, when my connection drops, I get logged out of my GT.

The positive to waiting on buying DLC is that as more comes out, you are a little more discerning with your purchase and can make the points stretch out a little longer. I'm still on the fence for the Cars album, but then I haven't played RB in a while.

The list is sorted by tier. There's no way DT would be in the same tier as Everlong and Give it Away. Sadly, my guess is this is the Finger Eleven song. I really hope it's DT though.

I have Gold Stars in several songs on Expert and still don't have this damned achievement. Stupid semi-responsive red drum!

On a side note, I finally GS'd Enter Sandman, woo.

I'm sitting at 22680 points right now, and I split RB DLC with a friend, so I effectively have double that. If either of us are slightly interested in something, we usually pick it up.

The Cars album is pretty fun. I hadn't heard a lot of it before it was announced. Drums are fun without being overly difficult (I'm just making the jump from medium to hard), and the vocals are fairly rough. Guitar/Bass is not that great on every song, but a couple of them have pretty decent charts.
