YEAH. Got my acceptance letter, and did about four Anakin-style "yippee!"'s.
Congrats to everyone else here who got in. Condolences to those who didn't; it's only 2 more weeks and getting the game will still be fun as hell.
Question that I'll pose to them before canceling my pre-order (which I'm actually debating regardless; it's always nice to have backup instruments): What happens to the preorder bonus songs? Will we get them as part of the Road Crew, or will we miss out on them if we choose to cancel our pre-orders? EDIT: One of the first gigs is to "show your preorder Receipt," so I'm guessing that might factor into it somehow. |

So, have any Road Crew members gotten any emails beyond the initial "congratulations! Keep an eye out for more info!" email yesterday?
I assume not, and I assume we won't get them until Monday (weekend and whatnot, but knowing how game devs work the weeks before release, who knows). I'm just curious. |

Join those of us buying a bundle and waiting for a potential second wave to open up so we can apply and try to get the other stuff? :p _________________

Well, one of the first gigs is to make a video talking about how hyped you are for Rock Band 4, and to talk about which song on the setlist you're most excited for.
Here's mine!
The lighting is awful and oh god I forgot how fat I look on camera
Hopefully it's kinda funny though.

It would be hard for me to make a video since there is so much to choose from.
Superunknown
A Night in Dreams
Start a Band

Man, seeing how many of my ScoreHero/Facebook friends made it in makes me wish I had at least given it a shot, but I'm not exactly great in front of a camera or active on social media. Congrats to you all, I'm sure you'll do ScoreHero proud. :D
So jealous of y'all getting the game early, though! At least it's only a little over a 2 week wait now for the rest of us. Don't know how I'm going to make it til the 6th lol _________________

Also, for those of us who got accepted, here's a FB group that's trying to get as many Road Crew members as possible so we can all communicate about it.

I'm totally bad with camera stuff, don't really do social media outside of Twitter, but gave it a shot anyways. I still managed to get in. Seeing Thrashers post awhile ago that they wouldn't post the vids without consent eased my mind a bit. |

I got in! As did BreakManX from around these parts! All told, my local group of intense Rock Band nerds netted five(!) of the spots in total. That's so much largesse that's gonna let us do so much ridiculous awesomeness going forward. Immense props to Harmonix for making this a reality for us! _________________
