Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution
DLC for 9/27:
And to think it was one of the 4 artists we were promised to be revealed if they hit 2M likes on FB. Terrible.
Hey gang,

Being from Iowa I feel I should offer some sort of apology for Slipknot. And Ashton Kutcher.

Every time I see this thread bumped, I get a slight tinge of excitement that maybe the Pearl Jam songs are coming. When I see something like Slipknot, I'm especially disappointed.

Wow, so absolutely no love for Slipknot and their sick guitar riffs? I admit I am not a fan of their music (that's one of my wife's guilty pleasures) but they have some pretty good guitar work.

I have 800 songs with varying degrees of amazing guitar work. The majority of which I actually enjoy listening to.

I have a code for Halo Reach. If anyone has any codes for song packs they'd like to trade, please let me know. I'm thinking Bon Jovi, Billy Joel or something like that.

It's a shame they couldn't get to 2 million likes on Facebook earlier and let us know ahead of time that Slipknot and Limp Bizkit were coming to Rock Band. What a horrible couple of weeks.

Not a fan of Limp or Slipknot but Harmonix still gets a

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution
But neither of those bands are new to the fold. Slipknot had a pack already and is also on the RB3 disc. Limp Bizkit had the "Build a Bridge" DLC a while back.
Damn you Harmonix!
