Rock Band

[dreamcastrocks]

What an awesome game! We had a friend over on Saturday, and our 3-piece went for about 7 hours straight!! We've even got a real nice tour-bus for our trouble! Only problem is the gals can't do better than easy on the drums so I don't get to play the bass as much as I'd like to. That and the drums are a lot of work! Got a pretty good workout. This game is a bargain at $180. :notworthy

Linda is about to graduate to medium on the guitar, so we can finish our band as well. We are about at the same spot.

I now hate "Mississippi Queen" with a passion.

Green Grass and High Tides is horrible. Over 8 minutes long, and pretty hard to boot, especially on drums.

That is easily my favorite song (drums) on the game from what I played.

It has some killer parts.

I had to negotiate to play mine. The wife won't let me open the entire thing until X-MAS. So basically, I broke out the guitar and started playing the other night. Drums have to wait.

Still on Novice though and doing training. Want to make sure I know what I am doing. This is my first "Guitar" game so I didn't have the privilege of playing Guitar Hero or anything before this.

Enter Sandman has been my favorite song to play on all instruments, partly because it is one of the hardest.

I downloaded My Cherona from Xbox live, and I enjoy playing that on the guitar.

Nice.

I also liked Blackhole Sun, one of my favorite all-time songs.

If you mean killer hard, that's my experience on drums!! It was very problematic for us because I was the only one who knew the words and could play the drums, but no way both at the same time!!

Learn to fly is my fave on bass.

I have sung and played the drums on Wanted Dead or Alive....thought it was a blast. On Saturday, I sang Dani California and played the guitar to it at the same time. Got 100% on the vocals while playing too. I think I got 95% on the guitar.

I am so going to Guitar Center or whatever that place is called off of the I-17 and going to buy a Mic stand. I know you can use the 360 headset, but it doesn't feel the same.

That song is very hard. It kicked my butt the first time that I played it. (didn't fail though)

No alert needed. I have been a nerd for quite a while.

NERD ALERT X 2

I'm going to pick up a drum stool tomorrow!!

I did happen to have a guitar stand, and the Strat looks great on it in the LR.

A drum stool would be awesome. I was sitting on this stuffed cube thing at my buddies house and it was killing my back.

The drum stool at Guitar Center I saw, was like $65. I'll continue sitting on my chair.

I think Guitar Center will PM Musician's Friend...Throne...if they have it in stock, but you may even be able to get it shipped there. Do you remember what brand the one you saw was, DCR?

 

[dreamcastrocks]

nah, I only looked at the price tag...

$32 is a little easier to swallow...

I read about that deal. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get one in time since i don't get out of work for another hour. I might as well go down there and try.

I still have a $25 TRU gift card to use.

Good luck!
