The crowd sing-alongs on All My Life and I'll Stick Around were pleasant surprises. All around good week for me, anyway.


PS.: Charted cymbals? What do you mean?


basically it's when they chart cymbal rolls on drums. it's really annoying to play in rock band. in GHWT, they just have a one note hold and you play it however fast you want for that hold which is a better way of approaching it. I personally don't play for score so I just think it's handled better that way.

I think it was the end of Inside Out that there were some charted cymbal notes that threw me off. I hate that chart. wasn't crazy about All My Life either. sucks because they're both good songs. favorite for this week has to be Kaiser Chiefs.


Arbitrarily deciding to not chart cymbal rolls because the timing can be tough is absurd.

Now when there are not recognizable cymbal HITS - when the drummer strikes the cymbals doesn't produce a distinctive sound (like when using soft mallets to produce and orchestral sounding cymbal buildup) - then it makes sense to chart it in a very forgiving way. And I think that's what HMX tries to do. Maybe they've been over complicated a time or two, but learning to play along with cymbal rolls is just another skill.

WANNA PUT MY TENDER / HEART IN A BLENDER

I hadn't heard Inside Out before yesterday, despite it being Eve 6's second-biggest hit, and I was very much pleasantly surprised. It's not incredibly hard on anything (unless you count vocals ) but it's a really catchy and fun song. I'll definitely be picking it up tonight when I can get on XBL.

Oh, and listening to killzonedout trying over and over to FC that talkie is lulz.

On a related(ish) note, how many more weeks till Wii has no backlog?


Someone correct me if I'm wrong but at the rate they're going I think it's like 2-3 weeks.

I've found a source for RBU DLC preview videos. He has agreed to let us use his videos, so expect chart previews for all RBU DLC for now on (even if it is a little bit later )!

Eve 6 on Rock Band is pretty much auto buy for me. Unfortunately, none of their other songs would sell since they aren't as well known but I am ESTATIC to have this one.

Now if we could just get some Chevelle...

Dear Harmonix,

There are other bands out there besides Foo Fighters.

I still love you unconditionally.


Yeah, like Red Hot Chili Peppers and Nine Inch Nails!

Yes for Chili Peppers, HELL YES for NIN!
