The Official Harmonix Podcast Episode 61 – Butterbeer for my Horses

On this week’s episode, the gang gets goofed up on butterbeer and talks about theme parks. Turns out there’s a lot of collective theme park experience on the Harmonix Community team. They also chat about a ton of Rock Band-related stuff, including some stats tied to our new Rock Band Dashboard app on Facebook. They also run down their personal top 5 DLC of 2011.

The Official Harmonix Podcast Episode 60 – Lesser is More(r)

This week on the podcast we’ve got a ton of really cool news related to the world of Dance Central, brought to you by DC’s community manager, Annette! But Rock Band isn’t left out, with some lively discussion about the new songs coming up for the game, and some that have been recently released.

And, as you would expect from our production, there’s a healthy dose of goofs, as the gang discusses everything from Mr Pope’s sinus surgery to Annette’s bizarre trip to NYC for New Year’s Eve. Most importantly, the second half of this slightly long episode is a super-engaging interview with Harmonix Art Director Ryan Lesser that’s packed with interesting stuff about the Rock Band franchise.
