Unless Wal-Mart started accepting Toys R Us gift cards I don't see this happening.

So should the country pack be out now? I'm having trouble finding it on the download section.

No.

They announce on Friday the tracks to come out the following Tuesday (on the 360). The country tracks were an exception in that they announced them a couple days early.

The country tracks come out in 2 days.

Busted out the stage kit last night at a thanksgiving do over dinner. When it strobed and fogged on a drum roll, the whole house lost it. Worth the $100 right there.

So the RB2 bundle's wireless guitar is still the black and white pattern? I thought it was supposed to have the sunburst pattern? What gives?

Yeah, the stand-alone is sunburst, the bundle one is black and white. Other than the paint job, they're the same thing.

Pearl Jam's Ten coming in March!!!

The VGA (Video Game Awards) was doing a live dress rehearsal streamed online, and Geoff Keighley made an announcement that Pearl Jam's Ten was coming to Rock Band in March. This will probably be broadcast live on the show tonight.

This is definitely an album worthy of a full-album release! Great job, HMX!

"When Pearl Jam's TEN came to Rock Band I jizzed in my pants"

This is probably a pretty accurate guess.

Sweet fucking shit! That's a day-one purchase. Evenflow, Jeremy, Black, Once, Garden. God damn, I can't wait.

COMPLETE ALBUM PURCHASE@!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ten is one of the few albums I can think of that truely deserved to bu Album DLC.... Man, I cant wait.

Alive is one of the most fun "on disc" tracks in RB2, the whole album should be amazing. To me, this will be up there with Boston & The Who.

I'd trade the whole album of Ten just for "Yellow Ledbetter". I must know those lyrics!!! ;)

Finally some great DLC - I'll definitely get Ten on day one.

sweet...i'll take some more pearl jam

I need to start working on that time machine now! Announced on my birthday too (the 14th). Happy B-Day to me!

As expected, March 24th, 2009: http://news.prnewswire.com/ViewConte...4942060&EDATE=

Pearl Jam Signs With MTV Games and Harmonix to Bring Band's Debut Album, Ten, to Rock Band

Full Album to be Released as Rock Band DLC Day and Date with the Re-issue of "Ten": Four Special Edition Packages in Stores on March 24, 2009

NEW YORK, Dec. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --Harmonix, the world's premier music video game development company, and MTV Games, a part of Viacom's MTV Networks (NYSE: VIA, VIA.B), today confirmed that Ten, the debut album that sold 12 million copies and introduced the world to Pearl Jam(http://www.pearljam.com) in 1991, will be offered for download in the Rock Band Music Store day-and-date with the re-issue of the album in stores on March 24, 2009.

Paul DeGooyer, Senior Vice President of Electronic Games and Music for MTV Networks Music / Logo Group, added, "Just hearing the first few notes of Jeremy or Alive brings back all the raw emotion of this incredible, hugely important album. We are honored to be working with Pearl Jam to deliver Ten as it is re-issued."

In addition to the track "Alive" that is already available on the Rock Band 2 game disc, the Pearl Jam Ten download pack will include the additional 10 songs from the album:

Once
Even Flow
Why Go
Black
Jeremy
Oceans
Porch
Garden

Release

Pearl Jam released Ten on August 27, 1991. The album reached #2 on the Billboard 200 chart, sold over 12 million copies and became one of the cultural touchstones of the 1990s. Songs such as "Alive," "Black," "Even Flow" and Jeremy became staples of rock radio, and still make frequent appearances on the band's ever-changing concert setlists. The album was produced by Rick Parasher. Pearl Jam's 1991 lineup was Jeff Ament (bass), Stone Gossard (guitar), Dave Krusen (drums), Mike McCready (guitar) and Eddie Vedder (vocals).

Since there's only 10 tracks on this one, the full thing should come in under 1600 points too if they have their standard discount policy.
