Just stick a playing card (joker?) in the neck toward the front of the guitar to hold it in...if that makes sense. You may have to fold it in half, depending on the card, but it needs to be thick enough to hold the neck in place.

The whole process should take about 15 seconds.

take the neck off, take a piece of duct tape and place it along the ﺐ shaped groove at the bottom (just the top, not hanging over or it won't fit back in. make sure it's on really good and put it back in. it should stay snug. maybe need to use two pieces on top of each other.

This is all of course unless the foil is punched through in which case, that sucks.

I don't think Best Buy up here is going to have the Pearl Jam code, so I'm glad these tracks will be available separately - I NEED to get Brother. Love that track.

Thanks - I'll give one or both of those tips a try before trying anything else. I'm somewhat tempted to just solder the connections, though - like they should have been initially.

Are you in? I submitted last night. Texas Flood is the bug's drugs. Yes, I just made that up.

So that's a good thing?

Oh yeah... very good thing. It's like drinking vermont maple syrup. Although there's a trill in the song they left out of the note chart somewhere in the solo, but it's all good.

:lol: Figured it was good...I won't even attempt it on expert, but it was a blast on hard.

I wasn't going to get the Richard Thompson track, but based on the raves here I bought it. They are right, it's a great chart. Recommended! :rock:

I unlocked the Greatful Dead song last night so I guess I have all the on-disc stuff accessible, but I don't have Texas Flood. Oh and I really suck at these games now.

Edit: Actually I haven't done the RB1 export yet, so the only song I can play is Alabama Getaway. Looks like I'm sitting out this competition unless I can get a copy of the disc before this weekend.

Not the official DLC bump, so I apologize if it got your hopes up, but there's a quote from Ray Parker, Jr. floating around that he's working on getting The Ghostbuster's Theme in Rock Band.

Carry on.

Awesome!

That would be AMAZING... I'm guessing they'd try to tie it into the release of a third film, whenever that happens (or the videogame, but that seems less likely).

He'd better ask Huey Lewis.

TGOS would be a blast to play and sing ... hopefully it would open the doors to more old soul/funk

As expected, no Saint Patty's Day tie-in.

I'll definitely be picking up a couple of these. Good stuff.

Will get about 4 or so. Good week...terrible song choice for EW&F.

Glad to see they revisted Against Me! and got their best track in.

James Brown deserved his own pack.

I'll need to listen to some of these again and/or watch the videos once they are released, but I'm sure I'll be getting a few at least. Very nice variety.

Spoiler:
I still want more Metal!

I really wanted Pogues, Flogging Molly, Dropkick Murphys, or some Gaelic Storm. :(


I will be all over that James Brown cut and may snag the New Pornographers. I need to give them a listen first since I am less familiar with their work.
