Is there any content already available for RB? The reason I'm asking is because I couldn't find the menu that takes me to download stuff, nor even the menu to browse the DLC.

So can you give me directions in order to get to that menu? I think I tried everything but obviously I missed something or else I wouldn't be here. Thanks.

I'm on a 360 BTW.

Yep, just go to the XBox Live Marketplace, games, new arrivals and scroll down to Rock Band. All of the current DLC is in there.

That's weird. Most of the other games (if not all) have their DLC right there on the game interface itself, but in here you have to go all the way out to Marketplace to get it..... No wonder why I wasn't able to find it.

Thanks for the answer, tehfl1p :).

FYI I went to new arrivals this morning to grab the sabbath pack and saw only the sabbath and bowie packs. I think you have to navigate to the DLC through the full game listing in order to get "all of the current DLC".

If you are a Canadian importer like myself, you won't find it there until the game launches in Canada. Unless you do this:

It's probably not illegal, but maybe sort of grey. Many of you cannucks probably already have a US live account for getting the free gamer pics, etc. that they never release on the Canadian marketplace. If not, that is step one.

1. Create a new hotmail account and make sure you fill out a fake US address
2. Create a new gamertag on your Xbox, and ensure it is a US account
3. Buy a points card on Ebay made for US accounts (the 1600 and 4000 point ones)
4. Add points while signed in to the new US gamertag
5. Download Rock Band DLC (might I recommend the Metallica pack?)
6. Sign out of the US account and back in to your main one
7. Fire up Rock Band and enjoy your new songs

I wouldn't suggest trying to download movies or video content using this method however, as I've heard MS watches that a little more. Seems downloadable game content is okay though.

Mmmmm that's a good point on the foreign DLC, I have a Mexican Gamertag (and I don't think it has been released oficially here, I went to the US and bought it), I hope I can get the DLC over here. I'll try it tonight and see how it goes.
