I much rather have anything by the Stray Cats which this song sorta robs from. Or the Fabulous Thunderbirds.

Which leads me to ask just why we dont have more rockabilly tracks in these games.

Regarding Challenge 7 is "Losing my Religion" DLC or have I somehow missed unlocking it?

It is DLC.. I would submit my score, but eventhough I GS'd it, someone out there has probably gotten a perfect on it.

So just because you're afraid you won't get first, you don't want to participate?

On a similar note... How about something like who could get the LOWEST score, or the lowest % on a song. That might be kind of fun. Especially on some of the harder songs.

I had thought about that, but then I was thinking somebody could use no fail mode - I don't think the score screen indicates it was used, does it?

Actually, that was my son's score when he first started playing...he's playing hard guitar/hard & expert bass now. I never knew you could get one star, lol.

Nope, it wouldn't show up if they did. I was thinking if the competitions aren't for an actual prize, we could just go by the honor system.

Yeah, I'd be in for it. Unfortunately some lame-ass would still cheat and do no-fail just to be able to say he won. :lol:

Styx? OMG orgasm... fuck yeah!

I've been demanding some Styx for a while now. When I saw that Rock Band was sponsoring the Styx/REO tour this summer I figured something had to be in the works.

Yay! :banana:

Not really my bag. Makes me want to take a nap. :lol:

I honestly don't know any of those Styx or REO Speedwagon tracks by name, so I'll have to listen to them to decide whether or not to get them.

I just got the Rock Pedal in the mail yesterday to go along with the ION kit, so I now have an even more ridiculously expensive video-game controller. It's so nice though to not hear the clanging of the ION pedal.

REL77 04-17-09 09:29 AM

Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
 
Renegade and Take it on the run are the ones you will probably know Vegan..

Renegade has a NICE solo in there after relistening to it... Good week just for those 2 songs...

GoVegan 04-17-09 09:31 AM

Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
 
Oh yeah, after listening to it I definitely know Take it on the Run. I guess it's one of those songs I've heard forever, but never knew who was performing it. I'll probably get that one. The Styx ones I don't recognize at all, but they sound like they'd be fun to play.

Jane's Addiction next week?

UncleGramps 04-17-09 09:38 AM

Re: Rock Band: Official Thread
 
Not to be a downer, but they updated the post with this tidbit:


All tracks are master recordings. The Styx tracks are recent re records, and the Styx and REO Speedwagon collaboration Can't Stop Rockin' was recorded in anticipation of their tour together this year.
Hopefully they sound good, because I really want Renegade.

Holy crap, I'm geeked. I wish .38 Special was included, but they did a nice job on the selections from REO and Styx. "Renegade" is going to be too fun.
