By the way..

Interesting.. interesting indeed. Freaking love the layout.

Now if only they would have made Band World Tour online.

Yeah, I could definitely do a video of me doing real drums to a Rock Band song, it'll just have to wait until my lung heals up enough to do real drums again rofl

I can't decide whether I should do something repetitive that I won't screw up (i.e. Don't Fear the Reaper) or something impressively difficult that I will definitely screw up (i.e. Won't Get Fooled Again, or possibly a Metallica song - ooh, and I could even add the double bass).

It's about damn time they made the shop accessible in-game, going to the Marketplace on the Dashboard drove me crazy.

**dore** · 03-21-2008, 12:25 AM

Do Beethoven's **** if you have it.

Tokzic · 03-21-2008, 05:05 PM

Just got it.

Yes.

A few of the fills are going to be a pain, but whatever.

Also, I just decided it was time to cash in one last EA warranty and so I've stopped playing my drums like they're glass. Instantly, I 5*ed a some things I hadn't before and 5G*ed a bunch more, too. To put it in perspective, I raised my drum solo rank from 800-something to 600-something in an hour.

God I wish the drums didn't break so easy.

**dore** · 03-21-2008, 05:29 PM

Nice. I've never played my drums with too much subtlety because I know that I can get free replacements. My yellow pad is wearing down a bit, but it still works fine (some fills it's kinda iffy but whatever).

On vox I've been steadily improving my career rank; right now I'm ~325 on XBL. When I go through and fix all of my sightread scores (I've already turned lots of 3*s into GSs) I should be top 200. My goal is to get top 100 (I think I'm 1.2 million away ATM).

MalReynolds · 03-21-2008, 10:37 PM

167 on PSN. I keep fluctuating because I don't play as much.

On real drums Metallica isn't that hard, i mean and justice for all (the song) is hard to remember because its so long but Lars makes easy and simple drum beats. ...Well Blackened is a pretty hard drums song.

WERE GONNA LIVE FOREVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
LIVE FOREVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

god oasis pack is fun to play

**dore** · 03-22-2008, 01:54 AM

Got to top 200 XBL vocals with still a few 3 and 4 stars to fix.

**25thhour** · 03-22-2008, 02:28 AM

Bleh, I have it for PS2 which really sucks because no X Box Live... But Atleast I have it so I shouldn't be Complaining.

ddr_f4n · 03-22-2008, 09:57 AM

PS2 version isn't really that great. No customizable characters, and World Tour is watered down.

Also, going to a major Rock Band party tonight. So doing expert drums and guitar.

Telvanni_guard · 03-22-2008, 11:03 AM

That layout really is freaking pretty. Horray for previews.

jellygod · 03-22-2008, 03:47 PM

so ya my mic is broken so i cant really play, my drums are wearing down :/, but at least i finally beat detroit rock city expert drums on solo, man that song has been pissing me off for a while. im more into vocals but looks like ill have to be playing drums for a while till i get a new mic.

ddr_f4n · 03-22-2008, 04:09 PM

At first, I always hated Detrout Rock City since it's such a hard song due to the tricky base pedals, but now it's seems fun since I'm a lot better at it.

Also played some ranked matches. Destroyed everyone, and played some player named Kasandrae 5 times consecutively. Destroyed her too.

**dore** · 03-22-2008, 05:09 PM

Detroit Rock City was one of those songs that grew on me as I learned it. It still sucks on guitar, regardless.

**Kekeb** · 03-22-2008, 06:45 PM

Started focusing on the drums more, and I am horrible.

jellygod · 03-23-2008, 11:21 AM

hell yes! i just beat wont get fooled again expert drums on solo! 91%!

Tokzic · 03-23-2008, 11:24 AM

Detroit Rock City has a really cool beat, but it's also extremely repetitive and the drummer doesn't play with it at all.

jellygod · 03-23-2008, 01:05 PM

wow i finally beat dead on arrival expert drums solo today.... its like i randomly got good at the drums lol.

mike2727 · 03-23-2008, 01:15 PM
