*An Awesome Setlist*

[Mushashi]

After a whole-summer of hiatus and the recent release of RockBand 2, I've noticed that most of the songs in my "Awesome Setlist" where either in the DLC or the RockBand 2 setlist. I was so excited, and so where my family and friends, knowing that we'll all be able to play the songs we know and love. However, there are some songs that didn't get the attention they deserve so I've updated this setlist and replaced all of the songs that were confirmed with some new ones.

I also want to note that the songs I've requested are purely my personal taste of music. Please don't give me the "You don't have [name of band]! You Suck!" or "[name of song] is better than [my choice of song]". I'm sorry, but I can't please everyone.

If you have no idea what the songs are in the list, youtube is the GREATEST OPTION for music-hunting.

[tepidshark]

A lot of good stuff especially the Foo Fighters pack. I agree with that 100%, Everlong especially is a must.

[Idote]

I can't really disagree with anything on that list. If all these songs made it to RB, I would play it forever.

[AlteredAnxiety]

Great list, too bad i wouldn't have enough money to download all that. But like someone stated above, Foo Fighters pack is a must.

[almostaskater62]

that's a pretty *****in list
rise against and blink 182- sweet
the rest, very nice

[KillAutumn]

That's quite a compilation... Man!

I especially love your choices for Beatles song. Come together would be a bit bland, but would definately bring my mom to Rock band.

[polishdog90]

I don't like it all, but I would definately be happy if all of those songs were released.

[phaze209]

i say hell yes for stabbing westward my all time favorite band




PS check out the singers new band The Dreaming

[Mushashi]

That's quite a compilation... Man!

I especially love your choices for Beatles song. Come together would be a bit bland, but would definately bring my mom to Rock band.


I'm glad you like it! I try to put together a lot of classics and oldies to appeal with the older crowd as well as for the people who are familiar with the classics. I also try to dig up as many songs I can find in the 90's (my music generation).

The funnest songs to play in rockband are the songs that everyone knows and remembers :D

[Xecutiona]

i agree with this list completely especially Blink 182 and Offspring good choices Mushashi, although for Weezer i might also put beverly hills although it'd be kinda easy but i like it

[Phategod1]

I forgot about steppenwolf instead of Born to be Wild how about Majic Carpet ride.

[KeknLawls]

I call this my Extravagasm Setlist

Extravagasm:
1.Still Alive by Portal (The ending song, i mean, how awesome?)
2.Stairway to Heaven-Led Zeppelin
3.Take me Out-Franz Ferdinand
4.Danger! High Voltage-Electric Six
5.Dota-Basshunter (It could be worked into drums and guitar and bass EASILY...they did it with a ton of songs in GH2/3)
6.Hazel Eyes-The Darkness
7.Paha Ihminen-Turmion Katilot
8.Lights and Sounds-Yellow Card
9.Build God, then we'll talk-Panic! at the Disco.
10.Paradise City-Gun'n'Roses

[Mushashi]

i agree with you, Beverly Hills should be included, but personally the song has a slow tempo and it's too much of an easy song in any difficulty setting for RockBand

[Punkrockdrummer]

I really like it all, especially Rise against. \m/

[Goliath9592]

Yes I Agree 100% Woot!!!

[Thats_Bull]

Can't argue against any of those songs, even if there are a billion of them, I would probably burn a hole in my pocket downloading them.

[rockbandrocker123321]

YES!
Awseome list!
One more U2 song though...........sunday bloody sunday?
Blink-182 song........instead of whats my age again?......I'm Lost Without You...greatest blink song ever!

Oh and PLEASE! No more Metallica! Theres just to much of it! 4 songs thats ebough for one band

[WhiplashTW]

I have to agree with 99% of that list, 100% of the Bands listed anyway. the only criticizm i could possibly give would be the one i make most often it seems. your Whitesnake choice is by far the worst possible one in my opinion. If you just have to go for a Ballad by them "is this love" or "the deeper the love" would be infinitely better choices.

Whitesnake
Still of the night
Cryin in the rain
Slide it in
Slow and easy
Fool for your lovin
Gimme all your love

Oh man, I completely forgot about "is this love", "Still of the Night" & "the deeper the love"! I'll post 'em up and probably make a pack, haha. Personally, I kinda like Whitesnakes "Here I Go Again" due to the fact that it brings back ALOT of memories. I really do like your choices, thanks for the feedback!

[Mushashi]

YES!

Well, have you heard of the songs of Metallica in the list? Some people love Metallica, some people don't...you can't always please everyone, so I like to leave my list as is, but thanks anyways :]

I like "I'm Lost Without You", but "What's My Age Again" is an awesome song to rock out on...but that's my opinion.

[EnZandOutZ]

Wow, I'm afraid if all the songs on your setlist go up as DLC, I'll go broke

Great Song Selection

[Mushashi]

thanks! Yea I'd probably have to save my whole paycheck if all these songs goes up as DLC...and that's a lot!

[BuRn7 CaK3]

One Band is Missing, Atreyu.

Ex's and Oh's
Honor
Their Version of Epic, just for all the screamers out there.
Aint Love Grand

those 3-4 songs killer.

Nice List though, bought the new Foo Fighters CD today, love it. more FF for RB too.

[Mushashi]

Atreyu is a lil too heavy for my taste and I'm not so big on the whole "screamer" factor. However, I do like Ex's and Oh's and Honor. But hey, that's my opinion though.

[Mushashi]

I forgot about steppenwolf instead of Born to be Wild how about Majic Carpet ride.

Magic Carpet Ride is great, but you can totally rock out on Born to be Wild.

[IncubusYaknow]

I only disagree with Linkin Park, even though the song is good, I just don't think its a great song for RB. Love the list (especially the Incubus and Offspring packs), thanks for posting.

[Mushashi]

thanks for the feedback!

But as for "One Step Closer"...I dunno, I think it's a great song for RockBand, since it requires more guitar riffs, drum beats, and bass compared to their other songs. But it's alright, people have different opinions, so I respect that.

[Mushashi]

I call this my Extravagasm Setlist

Extravagasm:
1.Still Alive by Portal (The ending song, i mean, how awesome?)

9.Build God, then we'll talk-Panic! at the Disco.
10.Paradise City-Gun'n'Roses

Uh...thanks?

Only songs I like is Take Me Out by Franz Ferdinand and Stairway to Heaven though...

[RealCheese]

Click link in sig please

[Mushashi]

I've uploaded some links to most of the songs in my setlist (for all you lazy internet-users out there). There are some songs I couldn't put in due to the limitations I have in this thread...so the rest you can just look up yourself or download them. ENjoy!

[rancifan21]

Deffinitely loving the RATM, RHCP, and Offspring
You also got PLENTY of other good ones too, but if you dont narrow it down a bit more, there never gonna know what you want the most, this thread prolly wont get you much.
Do more individual threads.

[Greykiller]

Should've had The Noose by the Offspring. Amazing song.

[Nosferatz]

This is a pretty awesome list, hope some of it gets through!

[Mushashi]

UPDATE!

A lot of people have been requesting the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers theme song as the next DLC for RockBand...I say we should have The Beets from the hit Nickelodian show "Doug". I've also added in Spoon. Enjoy!

[BadCoupon]

Most of your setlist is great, its even great to see The Beatles there, however.
Wheres Eric Clapton?

[theViper79]

Wow Great stuff there dude, really great stuff

especially chili peppers and foo fighters! yay everlong!!

[Mushashi]

Sure, but what song would you recommend for Eric Clapton?

[anthony.kianvar]

LAYLA!!! you got me on my knees

[Mushashi]

LAYLA!!! you got me on my knees

uh...................?

[Blake_BOF]

cant disagree with anything,but would love to play "One Step Closer" "Song 2"
and "Blurry". I wouldn't mind playing "Johnny B. Goode" either :cool:

[supersonic1414]

All in all, damn good. A few bands I would pick different songs for, but you did a great job.

[Darkboi]

Nice List. I'd have to add

The Cure
In Between Days

Sick Puppies
pitiful
******* father

Puddle of mud
She hates me (so true ;) )

[mojodamm]

Nice List. I'd have to add

The Cure
In Between Days

QFT! I think out of all the Cure's songs, Friday would be my absolute least favorite to play. But any Cure is good Cure, so if it has to be Friday, so be it ;)

[Mushashi]

Yea, it's been a while...sorry I haven't uploaded any new songs into my wish-list...damn school and work...( >_<)!!

but anyways, back to the update! Since one of my wishes have been granted (Blink 182: All The Small Things) I just deleted it...however, I've managed to put up some new songs...hope you like them!

+The Cure: Just like Heaven
+The Cure: Better Days
+Muse: Stockholm Syndrome
+Silversun Pickups: Lazy Eye

side note:

I've been away from the whole rockband forum, but I've heard news that the upcomming DLC for Rockband has been hacked and revealed, but only the title of the song is revealed...some of the songs in the list is "Hysteria", "Misery Business", and "(I Can't get no) Satisfaction"...I know it's a n00b-question for me to ask, but is those songs really confirmed?

[tylerkeyisme]

all great...where's R.E.M.?

R.E.M.
What's the Frequency, Kenneth?
Losing My Religion
Begin the Begin
The Great Beyond

[Mushashi]

I like R.E.M, but not as much though, sorry :\

[TakeABow]

The Cure - Fascination Street, Love Song, Boys Don't Cry

I really think that if the Cure gets in, Friday I'm In Love should not be one of the songs. Fans of The Cure, as well as those who would be hearing them for the first time, deserve better.

R.E.M. Rocks!

[backbeato9]

thats an amazing list!! most of those songs are by my favorite bands and the ones that aren't would be fun to play anyways. i have a few suggestions that you may or may not agree with however.

- flogging molly. flogging molly is definetly one of my favorite bands and i think it would be fun to rock out to any of their songs.

-more rage against the machine. those are good songs but i think that there should be more(just my opinion)

-i forgot if you posted this but my hero would be a good track for the foo's. the drums are awesome.

other than those i think that that is a very good playlist.

Ah! I totally forgot about Boys Don't Cry! I'll add that into my list! Personally, I like Friday I'm in Love due to the fact that it brings back lots of memories of my childhood and my dads' "Band days of the 80's" - a jumpy, Happy-go-Lucky, feeling that the song gives and I think that goes well with playing Rockband (Playing with your friends/family and enjoying the song and having fun)..again this is just my opinion

Foo Fighters: My Hero...wow...another brilliant song I missed! Thank you!

I agree there's gotta be more RATM, but I don't know if there are other songs that could top "Sleep now in the fire", "Guerilla Radio", "Testify", amd "Renegades of Funk". Haven't really listened much on flogging molly, maybe if you request some of their best songs (in your opinion) and I'll check 'em out. Thanks!

[backbeato9]

the best flogging molly songs are definetly:
-drunken lullabies
-devils dance floor
-queen anns revenge
-rebels of the sacred heart
-salty dog
-black friday rule
-within a mile of home
they are kind of irish rock/punk by the way

[Mushashi]

UPDATE:

I finally reduced the setlist into a youtube video. There are some songs missing due to the fact that I don't have them in my computer...hope you guys enjoy!

[DarkHeartsDie]

ok so maybe i'm a little behind on seeing this topic but that set list is awesome/perfect for the next few months of DLC! if harmonix saw that then i'm pretty damn sure they might agree so damn it they need to see this topic and get these bands to sign these songs to rock band, especially rise against, i'm not sure but wasn't rise against already in GH3? but yea i seriously doubt we'd get rage against the machine and guns n' roses but they're still a possibility with their contracts with activision dying out due to GH3 being yesterdays news with them

[HeavyMetalKing]

List needs Coheed, then it's good to go.

[Coldplayer]

I expected the worst. But you really have a good list there with a lot of variety. Would choose different (and more) songs for some bands like Bloc Party or Radiohead though.

[Mushashi]

I agree, I forgot to add more Bloc Party and Radiohead songs as I did in my wishlists when the same artist/band appeared twice on each videos. I would go back, redo it, and post it back up on youtube, but it's a b!tch to upload and making the video takes forEVER! But in respects, I do wish I had more time to make a 3rd video...but in the meantime I've got finals to worry about >_<

[grimblue]

I disagree
your list is too short man what about

Survivor
Sweetest Victory

Steppenwolf
Magic Carpet Ride

Bon Jovi
Raise your Hands
Blaze of Glory
Bad Medicine
You Give Love a Bad Name

Queen
Princes of The Universe
Bohemian Rhapsody
Stone Cold Crazy
Keep Yourself Alive
Dragon Attack
Death on Two Legs
Killer Queen

Thin Lizzy
Jailbreak
Boy Are Back Town
Dedication
Whiskey In The Jar

System of a Down
Lost In Hollywood
Forest
Bonce
Revenga

[Ravaana]

Chuck Berry
-Johnny B. Goode (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0YUA3yTUss)

[

YES! The Father of Rock&Roll himself! :D

Roll Over Beethoven (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLD5H4uQ1xs&feature=related) would be a must as well.

All due respects, I couldn't add any more songs into my list due to the character limit. I do like your Queen and Bon Jovi choices...but Bohemian Rhapsody? I love the song, but it's mostly a piano-vocal song...and yes the guitar solo and a little bit in the end, but it feels like all the other instruments are deprived from the rock out experience rockband gives out.

[SaikouMenji]

Good call on the Chuck Berry. The man helped create the damned genre. He's got a few good songs that should be on Rock Band frankly.

What's Left of the Flag should also be in there. They should release a pack of these to compete with the GH3 St. Patty's Day Dropkick Murphy's pack

[leftover_crack]

Chuck Berry
-Johnny B. Goode (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0YUA3yTUss) *Back to the Future anyone?*

*edit*




no, all the covers of johnny b. goode suck

it needs tobe the original

[Mushashi]

no, all the covers of johnny b. goode suck

it needs tobe the original

well duh, the original of course...that's why I put in the artist as Chuck Berry, not the artist out there who covered the song. The reason I put in "Back to the future, anybody" is so that people can get an idea what the song is. It's like trying to tell someone "Have you heard of Kenny Loggins: Danger Zone?" and they reply "What? What song is that?" then you tell 'em, "You know, from the movie 'Top Gun'?"

[Mushashi]

bump...updated setlist :D
