|

Hey guys,
You may have seen a lot of my articles around here, but for the first time, I'm looking for the help of the ScoreHero community. I've contacted the mods and JCirri and gotten permission to involve the community in this way.
Basically, I'll be putting together a few articles where I really want the people who know what they're talking about (aka SH) to help me compile some lists.
The first article I'm doing is centered on covering the best DLC that Rock Band has to offer. This will be a part of Examiner.com's "Best" series.
All you have to do is go to the link at the bottom of the post and write-in your favorite DLC at each instrument. Once I've collected enough legitimate data, I'll be publishing a series of articles counting down the best DLC available for Rock Band to date.
TL;DR - Click the link below, vote for your favorite DLC, wait for the result articles.
Please note, the only one that you are required to vote for is "Favorite Overall", but the more data I can get, the better. Thanks!

If people want a complete and sortable list of songs available (which I know I needed - picking favorites out of a thousand songs is pretty daunting), pksage has one here: http://www.pksage.com/rockbandsongs.php _________________

I'll be happy to help out with a submission, but I have a few questions:
Am I correct in assuming that DLC from The Beatles Rock Band is NOT included in this survey? Also, do the exports from RB1, Lego and AC/DC count as DLC? Lastly, do you want the band name listed as well, or just the song title? _________________

The main songs I'm looking at are songs that any user can purchase in the system stores for the main RB Platform (no exports, no TBRB please)
For making this easier for me, please include it in "Artist - Song" format. Thanks! _________________

I almost want an instrumental category, but the only real reason would be so I could list YYZ as the best instrumental. Even without vocals it's very close to making my "best song" spot anyways. Decisions, decisions. _________________

What about RB1 Euro exports? (Hysteria, Beetlebum, etc.) |

Yes, Hysteria and other Euro exclusives are fine. If you can DL it on any console storefront, you can write it in. _________________

I'm going to give you fair warning, SH's opinions are probably going to be more geared to difficult songs. Deschain mentioned YYZ which is a totally bitchin' song, but I don't know anyone in real life who can pass it consistently on any instrument (especially drums) aside from myself. Things that seem easy to SH may not be so great to others. _________________

This is exactly why I voted. I'm in the camp that difficult does not always mean fun, so I voted for songs that, for lack of a better term, give the best "feel" when playing. I.E. if I have a huge grin on my face by the time I'm at the end. Hopefully this list gives some of the sleeper hits some exposure. _________________

Did you try refreshing it? If not, try Firefox, Chrome can be a little wonky at times for some things like that _________________
