Looks like a solid enough week, I may have to get both songs, but I might wait until the final week and buy a few in a big group, subject to badassery of the songs, of course.

But really though, we may as well have made a topic for next week's DLC already as well. We all know it's going to be Diamond Eyes, Shout and Jungle Boogie with Pro.

Rosanna will be most interesting on drums, I wonder how that famous Jeff Porcaro Half-time shuffle will translate to plastic drums. If they charted all those ghost notes, it will be challenging and a lot of fun.

Well, they didn't. I can clearly hear the snare ghost notes that aren't charted

Would have been much harder to FC then of course. Now its Tier 6, got 100% on second try (Pro).

Still, it feels epic to play a song from the heroes of my youth

For those that didn't watch the live stream, they did mention that they did not chart the ghost notes because it made the song more annoying than fun

On the flipside, keys chart for Rosanna looks great. Almost no horns charted to keys, although they couldn't resist the little fanfare immediately before the choruses.

I kinda wish they had charted the ghost notes anyway, because as is it's just a rather boring swing rhythm that's not tremendously much fun either.

Really disappointed there weren't more Oingo Boingo songs, but this is an absolute gem. Most fun I've had playing a new song on Rock Band in a LONG time.

Okay, after seeing a "Weird Science" video I may have to retract my previous idea of waiting until the final week before buying more DLC. That looks like some seriously fun stuff. It looks like the most fun thing on guitar I've seen in ages, and that includes Jessica and the Aerosmith pack. I'll wait and decide when I actually get it, but for now, wow, damn. Nice.

Rosanna also looks pretty cool, but whatever. Weird Science!

There's about 20 songs I would have rather had over Weird Science by Oingo Boingo, but damn, did that song turn out to be more fun than I expected on everything (except drums).

They didn't have this thought process when charting guns of summer?

I mean, fuck!
