We had to replace the PS3. When we used RB2 on the new system, it wouldnt let us use/access our old band name Van Latham, even though we logged in using same PS network ID. We had to make a new band Von Latham. When I just created a Rockband.com user ID here, using our PS network Id and the webcode, it shows we have both bands. How do we play under the old?

Thanks.

You can't, when you create a Band Name and connect online, you can never use the same Band Name again.
The Band was on your save file, with your scores

There are a couple of issues here:
1. Was the original band on RB1, and the new band on RB2? If so, then you WILL have to create the new band, and you WILL have two bands show up on the site. You can only play the old band in RB1, and only if you still have the old save file for RB1.

2. If you were playing RB2 both times, did you copy the RB2 save file from the old system to the new system? If not, then it doesn't matter if you used the same PSN ID, as the band is saved to the save file on the local PS3, not to the PSN. In this case, you could only play the original band if you found the original save file. Otherwise, RB2 will tell you that the band name is already taken.
