Chicago and Yes would be fantastic. I can't stand Supertramp.

I would think "Owner Of A Lonely Heart" would be a no-brainer for the game. As far as classic Yes, I'd love to see "Heart Of The Sunrise" and "And You and I".

I'd like to see "Colour My World" from Chicago, or even "25 or 6 to 4".

Calling fellow nerds. I lost my rockband "drum kit" sticker, and I want to put it on my Vespa. Anyone out there willing to hook me up?

Re: Rock Band: Official Thread

what sticker are you talking about?

I work at a sign shop, I can easily make you one once I know what it is.

wow, that's harder to search for than I thought it would be. I guess people don't know the difference between cymbals and symbols anymore...

anyway, it's the one that indicates your instrument... like this but the weathered looking one that RB2 uses...

Hmm, maybe we can work out a deal. How about you post a pic of the Vespa with the sticker on it. A hot chick sprawled across the bike is not required but is highly encouraged.

Are we supposed to play the different instruments on the same difficulty?

I'll see if I can convince the chickens to pant and sit on the seat if you wish. But yeah, I'll post a pic of the scoot with the sticker

I think you are to do whatever it takes to get a combined score of 211,000 without failing a song.

This.

However, you can only play each instrument once. You could play Easy Vocals and Expert Guitar if that's what it takes to get you closest to 211,000.

I exceeded the post limit. It seems a post can only be about 90K or so before vBulletin just eats it.

I've been working off and on with a HTML version with tables (I'm a noob) that I could host myself and just embed into the post. Haven't worked on it in a bit between work research projects, GDC, and moving into our first house though.
