I've had some pretty bad luck with Rock Band as of late...

About a month and a half ago one of my drum sticks, which had the grain going in a n odd direction, broke in pieces.
I purchased a new set of sticks and began playing again and my drum pedal broke.
Fed up, I got out the guitar and started playing it, but the wammy bar got to the point where it also strummed the guitar, breaking any streak you had going.
I contacted EA about these problems...got the rush shipping on my pedal and slow on my guitar.
After two weeks hadn't seen my pedal or box for the guitar.
Called EA, they canceled my order, placed a second (doubling the $120 hold on my account for a period)
My drum pedal comes, then the next day a second arrives.
EA sends a threatening email saying my pedal order was placed over 3 weeks ago and they are going to charge me if i don't return it. I return both my broken pedal and one of the new ones.

My Guitar box comes...only takes about 8 days after they receive it to get my guitar.

I finally have 4 instruments to play, but as I've been playing disc read errors have been getting more and more frequent.

The day I plug the new guitar in, first session plpaying, my 360 red rings.

My friend brings his 360 up to play, and it won't read my disc.

Now, there is a scratch radiating from the center of the disc, rendering it unplayable.

I guess I'll buy a new disc today, as I've been an avid buyer of the dlc songs (I'm up to 98 songs playable) and the instruments aren't doing me much good.

I got a new disc, went on vacation and the dlc wouldn't play as i had changed to a diffferent xbox.
Around this time i noticed the usb hub is broken...and then my drum pedal broke again.

Not rock band related, but my dvd burner stopped reading discs and i dropped my TI89 calculator in class today and both broke.

:(
