The tracks are fine (as far as I know) but apparently when you try to redeem for those songs on the P*psi site you get an error and no code. Might be fixed by now, not sure.

After the remaining Nirvana cuts i would really love to get some songs (or even the whole album) from their Unplugged set. Those versions were just incredible.

Re: Rock Band: The Official Thread

I just wanted to let you guys know that I stopped by my local Best Buy in the Minneapolis area and noticed they had the Rock Band Track Pack II for 360 at the low low price of 4.99. Not a bad price for 20 songs, even if you own a few of them already.

I hope you have some luck finding this (if you need it) at your local BB.

Sucker!

Runnin' Down a Dream is pretty easy, but the solo at the end more than makes up for it.

Holy fuck I hope they put Them Crooked Vultures in RB. That would put Grohl on what, like 405 tracks? (Approximately of course.)

You're right. The PR finally made it up onto RB.com and 680 is the number.

I think I'm only in for "And She Was" and "Once in a Lifetime" this week.

Too bad they couldn't throw Weird Al's "Dog Eat Dog" in for fun.
