We just got a full album of Jimi Hendrix. It's not too surprising for them to follow that up with some lesser-known bands.

Pretty bland lineup for next week - might grab Switchfoot since I have a few people I know who would probably be into that one but we'll see.

Yeah all those bands are only RBN worthy. I hope more news comes out about rock band 3, including some of Hendrix's more well known songs.

I guess I'm the only one that likes this stuff...
I'm in for Skillet, TFK and Switchfoot for sure. Possibly Anberlin as well.

OK, I haven't been Rock Banding in a while, but after browsing the RBN, I have a couple things to say...
- Great idea.
- I don't know about 75 percent of these artists.
- KMFDM - and one of, if not my favorite, songs.
And after getting today's Rock Band newsletter -
GWAR on RBN...I'll be dropping some points - SOrry there would be an exclamation point after KMFDM and GWAR but my keyboard isn't working.
http://www.rockband.com/zine/gwar-interview
It's possible people knew about this, or that no one else cares, but I'm still excited.
"HMXH: So this is a tremendous treat for me, and hopefully for you guys as well, Gwar, I'm not sure if it's been announced yet, is coming to Rock Band Network. Did you have a hand in this at all?
OU: Well, yeah, I'm in the band.
HMXH: Oh, well, did you have a hand in bringing the song to Rock Band Network.
OU: Actually, I had no idea it was even in there. But many times I sit there and I play that f***ing game, and I suck at it. And I sit there and think, "Maybe if I was doing a Gwar song, I wouldn't suck so bad. So yes, I understand we're doing "Gor-Gor" or something and it's gonna be f***ing awesome. "

Not sure where this would get more traction, but since it's game specific, I'm posting it here:
Rock Hero: RockBand Edition
Is free in the iPhone today. It's a RockBand song manager. Haven't messed with it much, but it appears to work as you would think. You can rate every song by instrument, sort by song, band, rating, etc. as well as create playlists or generate random ones. By comparison the Guitar Hero edition isn't on sale and runs $5.

I saw Skillet at a festival back in 1996 right after their first album came out. It was a modern-rock trio from the University of Michigan then. Somewhere along the line, they became the Christian White Zombie band. For the record, I've never purchased an album of theirs, but I've sampled a few. Not good.

Tried it out. Seems incomplete. Missing Lego RB songs and No Doubt - New at quick glance.

Popped Rock Band in for the first time in a month over the weekend. I downloaded some songs from RBN and was kind of disappointed by the variance in audio quality. The Shins, Flight of the Conchords and Mark Mallman all sound great. The Stills and Stroke 9 sound like ass. Guess I'll have to actually bother with the demos from now on, instead of just automatically buying stuff from bands I like.

New by No Doubt was there. It's under the singles, not the track packs because HMX released it separately. The app is a good idea, but they need a way to set up your stuff online or something. The interface is clunky. Better yet, why not partner with one of the online collection DBs like myrockbandsongs or dlcquickplay so I only have to do it once?
What's funny is that I added a bunch of songs off the top of my head and created my first random playlist with it. Very first song was Enter Sandman Guess I need to go back into the RB1 list and remove the banished 3.

I was thinking about how we're starting to see game songs (L4D2, 'Splosion Man) show up on RBN. Wouldn't it be awesome if it were possible to unlock those songs for free in an Avatar Award sort of way?

The first song being released is Gor-Gor, which is also in GH5 as DLC. There's nothing in the song that would need to be censored, which is pretty awesome. A lot of their other stuff would probably be censored heavily though, to the point where it's not even worth it to chart/buy.
