Canada's #1 Artist = Entered America's Billboard Top 200 at #167.

As it should be! Can't let those Canadians get an inflated sense of self-worth.

Completely agree. I have never heard HIM but from the symbols and their logo I had always assumed they were heavy. Instead I get this wimpy emo ballad that isn't able to wipe the ass of a hair metal ballad.

I have dished out several one lighters so far and even a lot of twos. I have not been very impressed with the song selection so far on the groups I have never heard of.

Anyone know if they actually track the votes (lighters) people give songs? Just curious if that would help get some more (or prevent) DLC of a certain artist.

Then once they make it big playing the Saddledome or Air Canada Centre they start playing shows in the states, but they are back to little clubs filled with the few Canadians in those towns and they have to claw their way back to the top. Unless your name is Celine or Justin, then you just start out massive.

You misspelled Center.

I'm sure they track it, but I doubt it'll influence DLC contracts much.

Then again, I'm sure cable/dish companies track what you watch through your set-top boxes. Why those aren't counted in ratings is beyond me.

Even with all of my DLC, I have not rated anything yet. The reason for this is because it's rated per song, and not per instrument. There are plenty of songs that I don't care for on guitar, but are fun on vocals, or vice versa.

Maybe RB4 will have this feature. :lol:

Gotta have a Nielson-branded copy of RB3 for it to count.

One dude from the Tragically Hip (I think) once said being called Canada's biggest band was as much an honor as being the worlds tallest midget.

No "Hos Deep Is Your Love?". :sad:

I'll probably get some or all of the SNF stuff and maybe PH.

Bee Gees is a bit of a letdown after Doors, Bon Jovi and Billy Joel. Led Zeppelin, U2 , GnR Appetite for Destruction, heck even a Skid Row pack would have been better.

I don't recall anyone here saying "Now I have the Bee Gees Greatest Hits, I won't be wanting any Led Zep anymore". Some of us would like to have some of those songs in our collections, that's all.

Moron. They need to release everything awesome right now so we don't have to buy shit later. Hell, let's just have one massive DLC week with everything, ever so no one has to wait any more.

Thanks, "Silver" (y'know, the Pixies song), for letting me achieve lots of goals I really have no business winning whatsoever.
