Heh, your new band's scores? It looks like we've been working on completely different songs. Impressive how many you've played in a short period though.
I dunno if we have the patience to ever wrest #1 from BMB; the lure of DLC is too strong! Plus internetguy is going in for leg surgery in a week, and I'll have to be the drummer during his recovery period  so that will slow us down a bit for awhile. But we'll try  |

Yeah, I was going to say, with the surgery and just general busyness during the break, it's probably going to be late Jan or Feb before we get to 140 mil. But that time where we're swapping roles, we're probably going to get in a lot of DLC, so that lead will be hard for another band to overcome, I believe.

Good job guys ! We have hardly played at all in the past month (just for league songs mainly) but when the holidays come, we will try to get back to set list songs since its a busy time for all of us now and maybe try to catch up to BMB

Congratulations on this. It's sad that sometimes it feels like PS3 players/bands get forgotten as Xbox 360 players basically just compete with themselves. In RB1, AWG and Drive Shaft demonstrated convincingly that you can be a top (or even the top) band without being on the same leaderboard as most of the bands you're competing with, and you guys are doing a great job continuing that tradition.

Oh trust me we've kept our eyes on the PS3 boards. |

And, for 1000 points, without looking, name the player that traded first place with someguy on RB1 drums more than anyone else
If you said "Constable", you are a winner!

And on a stock kit, no less! Where is he?? (Do you know, ex-Drive Shaft-a-teers? Did he die and return an Angel?)
One thing that's interesting about the two consoles is that while the gap in solo achievements between the 360 and the PS3 is huge - HUGE (well, except for vocals) - the band play has always been a much more level playing field. Is it just that the two consoles tend to have such different demographics? And what of GHWT, where full band play is utterly non-existent?
Some credit for bridging the gap between the two consoles goes to AWG, I think, who were the first I noticed talking about their achievements in terms of "cross-platform" 1sts and whatnot. Nowadays that term is far more prevalent, and even some solo players pay attention to it. |

From what I know...
meister is a bit busier because he works evening weeknights and during the day on weekends but has an excellent new band shotgun symphony.
constble is much busier in general and is on every so often late evenings.
killertomatoes is tied up with school.
mnwildguy is with us now.
a lot changes over time I guess, would have been interesting to see AWG/DS full fledged in RB2, I actually miss how hard driveshaft pushed us for 2-3 agonizing err I mean enjoyable weeks ;)

Yeah where the hell did Constable go? <_< (no I didn't look at the white text Kawigi :p)
Nice job on beating Tig Ol' Bitties for 2nd overall, and OUCH @ the knee surgery. >_< You guys certainly have the ability to pass us for 1st overall, no question. Hopefully you guys will catch a break after the surgery.

| Updated with new totals, plans for the time after IG's leg surgery, and the most self-indulgent thing I've ever made in MS Paint. |

Well the good news is my surgery was a success. However sadly no amputations were performed, there was a slight shortage of replacement legs. Guess I just have to wait for them to heal.
