I think that since it is the holidays a special holiday pack featuring songs by the Transiberian Orchestra would be a great feature for Rock Band. If you don't know who Transiberian Orchestra is they play harder versions of Christmas Music and Al Pitrelli who used to be in Megadeath is the lead guitarist.

It would be both challenging and fun.

It's called rock BAND, not rock ORCHESTRA. There's like five guitarists playing in Trans Siberian Orchestra, 3 drummers, and like a fleet of violinists and I don't even know what the other instruments are called.

Theres just no way. u_u

Wow for five guitarists it sounds like 2 at most, on all of the stuff i've heard.

Please don't just make up random "facts". You have obviously never seen TSO, so you can't speak for it. They have 2 guitars (sometimes another depending on the song), a bass, one drummer, and two keyboardists. Then they get a bunch of local talent of string players, usually two violins, two violas, and a cello or two.

Lets put it this way. Have you heard of TSO? It sure doesn't sound like it. They are considered by many rock and roll for their music is heavy in drums, guitar, vocals, and yes strings. However, the lead guitarist is none other than Al Pitrelli who was part of MegaDeath.

I would recommend downloading a song or two from Zune Marketplace (yes I hate iPODS, for they've broken on my 5x, no dropping etc, they just quit) and listen carefully. You'll be surprised at what you'll hear.

I went to their concert in Seattle this past Saturday and my brother didn't want to go because he heard the word "Orchestra", I convinced him and he does not regret going and he stated it was the best rock concert he's been to. Well, that was until we went to Van Halen last night.
