WTF is going on?

[sushi111]

Why is the website so awesome all of a sudden?

[foolosophy]

They're definitely doing some renovations I got a bunch of Log In errors just now.

[battle_axe_of_doom]

glad to see the forum back, i thought it went down with the new web-site

[Kylekillgannon]

THE POWER OF ROCK BAND'S REACHING CRITICAL LEVELS!!!!!:eek:

[Kang_Zircon]

Looks like the update with new tour info and such. Also the songlist has been updated.

[wwaballafoshosho]

the new website is dope as hell!

[skeltonath]

OMG! So awesome! They even have a little box for the tour dates. :D

Oh shi- :eek:

Someone wanna get me a towel? :(

[Kang_Zircon]

Whoa - don't hit the "home" button though, that makes crazy things happen.

[_GABO_]

Wow, I actually had to log in. That's the first time it's ever happened aside from initial log in.

Looks like the <a href= "http://www.rockband.com/game_info/bundle">bundle</a> has been entirely confirmed, and the way folks didn't want either, corded 360, wireless PS3.

Edit: link added. And...

Whoa - don't hit the "home" button though, that makes crazy things happen.

Yeah, uh, don't do that.

[sushi111]

Did anyone notice it said 45 liscenced songs?

[foolosophy]

http://rockband.com/game_info/modes

New screen (although tiny) of Custom Set Lists.

[aaron_wil]

**In my best Borat Impression**

Niiiice!

[skeltonath]

They have a larger listing of the tour. Like locations and times in the tour section. Plus they have a thing for videos from the tour... :D

[_GABO_]

Did anyone notice it said 45 liscenced songs?

Yeah, I saw that and was like "FORTY-FIVE?!?!" I kind of peed mehself in a completely non-existant way.

Edit: Under instruments, it says "Microphone stand is also available" ::gasp::

[jq71586]

Yeah, I saw that and was like "FORTY-FIVE?!?!" I kind of peed mehself in a completely non-existant way.

With a total of 80...*tear*

Where's the total of 80?

Wooo! Senior member.

[sushi111]

Can anyone make out the first song in the Solo Tour Mode screen?

[sushi111]

Where's the total of 80?


In the solo tour mode picture it says _ out of 85 songs completed

[sumboxcar182]

i saw there being 70 for easy and 85 for medium and up. it's on the solo picture under modes

[jq71586]

Where's the total of 80?


On the main RB page if you click on "Game Info" and then onto "Modes" look at the 4th picture down on the left handed column. It looks like it says 70 songs for easy and 80 or even 85 for all the rest. Yay!

[sushi111]

This...

Is...

Awesome!

*cries*

[Akaymay]

Hold on! I was gone for like, 20 minutes. Ack, so much awesome just happened!!!!

[IErrantVentureI]

WHOOOOOOOO!

Sweet. I like this.

Very nice.

[sumboxcar182]

it looks like the london clothing store is going to be in saville row

[skeltonath]

Ah, good eye guys. I wouldn't have seen that. That song is hard to make out, actually they're all hard to make out. The text is gray...

[IErrantVentureI]

We need one, single thread for all of this. Several popped up at one time. Some one take charge!

[chaopolis]

Can anyone make out the first song in the Solo Tour Mode screen?

The only one I can really make out is Blitzkrieg Bop in the second tear.

[Kylekillgannon]

We need one, single thread for all of this. Several popped up at one time. Some one take charge!

everyone's losing it!

[sumboxcar182]

sorry for posting alot but another thing is that it confirms a bundle which will contain a wired guitar for 360 (wireless for ps3), the game, drums, and a mic. There's also mississippi queen for the solo song selection pic

[skeltonath]

The 2nd from the last in the first tier is Mississippi Queen.
The one below that looks like Here It Goes Again.

[chaopolis]

The last one in the first tear is Here It Goes Again

[Akaymay]

A bigger version, thanks to Photoshop:

[sumboxcar182]

it would seem like the first song would be the easiest but i cant read it at all.

[sushi111]

It looks like Lightning van Zueprieres to me

[skeltonath]

The first one sorta looks like Should I Stay or Should I Go...

But I'm not completely sure so don't go with that, lol.

[Akaymay]

I can make out the word "Angeles" at the top, Meaning you must be in Los Angeles when you're playing. And 4 characters are cropped off. Leaving room for "Los_"

[skeltonath]

It looks like Lightning van Zueprieres to me

Is Zueprieres even a word? Even in a different language? Haha.

Plus in the background behind the setlist it shows a city that says "Los Angeles" on it.

[chaopolis]

Looks like it is...

[_GABO_]

Naw, that's too long to be it.. Not saying I can see anything, but that'd be too long to be whatever the first one is.

[Kylekillgannon]

Well, it definitely says 85

[_GABO_]

I can make out the word "Angeles" at the top, Meaning you must be in Los Angeles when you're playing. And 4 characters are cropped off. Leaving room for "Los_"

Remember when "they" said in the E3 GameSpot video that you would start off in one of however many US cities? Looks like whoever it was chose LA.

[skeltonath]

Naw, that's too long to be it.. Not saying I can see anything, but that'd be too long to be whatever the first one is.

I was think that the "should" was cut off, because some of the other songs have the beginning of them cut off.

[Akaymay]

Remember when "they" said in the E3 GameSpot video that you would start off in one of however many US cities? Looks like whoever it was chose LA.

I know, I was just pointing out how much room is cut off. I know about the character's hometown. I know about the venues being real ones from real Cities.

[_GABO_]

I was think that the "should" was cut off, because some of the other songs have the beginning of them cut off.

Well, okay. Good call.

[foolosophy]

I would say it's very likely Should I Stay Or Should I Go. I mean you have to compare the length of the titles and compare like this:

Should I Stay or Should I Go
Here It Goes Again
Mississippi Queen

And looking at the image, it certainly fits the size. And I think I can see "should" in there. I also used to think the first word visible ended in a 'g' but now I realize it's probably just the font and it's actually a 'y' and it makes the word all the more likely to be "Stay"

[skeltonath]

If it's not "Should I Stay or Should I Go" I doubt we're going to identify it. I was looking at my playlist, trying to match the song names to the blurred text. So, if it is a new song, it would be kinda hard to identify since we don't have anything to go off of.

[bounchfx]

wow yeah I was wondering why it took me to a different page but now im like HAWT. the tour locations are up too! kinda..

[skeltonath]

Well, the next song is severely cut off, but the artist is not. Can anyone identify the artist there?

EDIT: Whoops. Ok, there's two songs there. One doesn't have a song title shown at all, but its artist is showing. And the one above it barely has its title showing.

[Kang_Zircon]

Those two might be In Bloom and Creep. Just geussing because Nirvana is a really short band name, and on the second, the band name looks long enough to be Stone Temple Pilots.

[skeltonath]

Those two might be In Bloom and Creep. Just geussing because Nirvana is a really short band name, and on the second, the band name looks long enough to be Stone Temple Pilots.

The STP song is Vasoline, which is about as long as In Bloom, so it would stick out a little. But yeah, In Bloom is what I was thinking for the second one. The third one I have no idea.

[foolosophy]

Well the text on Mississippi Queen I assume would read "as made famous by Mountain". So it would be something lengthy enough to be over just around half of that.

[Kang_Zircon]

Oh, right. Radiohead has a song called Creep, too... Maybe Epic by Faith no More? It's the only other Long band name/Short title on the songlist.

[Kylekillgannon]

I think the bottom one is Blitzkrieg Bop

[foolosophy]

I'm going to guess Maps - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

See matched up to Mountain's artist title which would read

"as made famous by Mountain"
"Yeah Yeah Yeahs"

On the picture it looks like the artist aboves name lands around just before the M in Mountain.

[Tendoza]

Good to hear, 5 more songs never hurt anyone :)
I had trouble signing in a while back there, everything was a little glitchy for a while.

Person from WoW forum:
"LOL FORUMZ DOWN!"

For a second there, they thought they won...

PS: They're still at it...

[skeltonath]

Oh, right. Radiohead has a song called Creep, too... Maybe Epic by Faith no More? It's the only other Long band name/Short title on the songlist.


I'm going to guess Maps - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

"as made famous by Mountain"
"Yeah Yeah Yeahs"

On the picture it looks like the artist aboves name lands around just before the M in Mountain.

It must be one of those two...

[foolosophy]

It also looks like each band will have a Leader by the looks of the Band World Tour picture.

[Blue88]

"as made famous by Mountain"

Maps sounds a bit hard for the second tier. Vasoline seems the most likely to me.

[IErrantVentureI]

Why do they have to be so secretive?!! :(

[skeltonath]

It also looks like each band will have a Leader by the looks of the Band World Tour picture.

Looks like the leader likes Harry Potter.

[IErrantVentureI]

You caught that too, eh?

Death Eaters.

[skeltonath]

On the Practice Mode picture it says:

Solo
Multiplayer
Training
Options
Community

Under "Training" it has Tutorials, Practice Mode, and an indistinguishable option. What do you think it is?

[foolosophy]

Says "Drums Training" to introduce the new instrument I would assume.

[IErrantVentureI]

Yeah, first word is for sure, drums.

[skeltonath]

Says "Drums Training" to introduce the new instrument I would assume.

Wouldn't that be under "Tutorials"?

[foolosophy]

Wouldn't that be under "Tutorials"?

That's what I was thinking but the second word looks a lot like Drums Training or Drums Tuning or Drums Timing.

[IErrantVentureI]

It should be.. I dunno. Definitely looks like drum is the first word. I'll upload a pic.

[TheTogfather]

Woah, so much awesome going on. Sweet new site. Nice to see some stuff, bundle etc, becoming official. I also caught that it specifically mentioned 'November' as the release month, so at least they're narrowing it down. And in the Tour rules it's got the MTV Rock Band Launch Party 'contemplated' for November 19...so would seem to reinforce that Nov. 20 release date we've heard rumored forever.

[DWDrummer121]

This website just defined 'awesomosity' in my dictionary within like 10 minutes.:D All of a sudden, my life was eased because HMX gave us a list of all of the locations within the cities we've already been informed of for the tour!!!! Yet, my city, Philly, is one of the only ones not detailed. More info shall come soon enough, I guess, but, now the 18th of October couldn't come any slower now.:D But, anyway the site also shows the bundle info. and everything!!!!
THANKS HMX FOR THE GREATEST WEBSITE EVER, in my opinion.:D

[Eman311]

under "band world tour" for encore, what is "The Ultimate Setlist"?

[foolosophy]

under "band world tour" for encore, what is "The Ultimate Setlist"?

Likely the name someone designated one of their Custom Set Lists.

[Eman311]

but highway star is right above it?

[masterx1918]

yeah it looks like you have to play Highway Star, then you play a set of songs you want then you play a "show manager's showcase" whatever that means.

[ThePaska]

This new site stuff is crazy, looks like I picked the worst day not to come on the site, and I basically miss all this stuff. 45 tracks instead of 40 is sweet, as well as all the tour locations being released and a possible release date. I'm getting super excited for Rock Band!

Loving the new site so much, hopefully they release the bundle price soon. Also so sweet that we can look forward to 15 more songs instead of 10!

[Eman311]

I guess we'll have to wait to find out.

Since it is an encore, maybe its just laying out your choices.

[foolosophy]

Well Highway Star could be the name of a set list as well, maybe someone named it that to remember it's the headlining track of that list. Because I mean it says "Choose Setlist" I'd imagine it would fall under that category of being the name of one.

[Eman311]

I'll give 10 bucks to the person who finds out what lyrics are on the back of the "product bundle" box.

[IErrantVentureI]

I'm on it.

You better not be lying.

[Eman311]

well there's definetly a song there, i just can't make it out.

[IErrantVentureI]

Link to the pic?

[Eman311]

http://www.rockband.com/game_info/bundle

[IErrantVentureI]

You want me to figure out the words under the box?

[jq71586]

You want me to figure out the words under the box?

I think he means the lyrics for the song that is being played.

[DWDrummer121]

I think the song that's playing in that picture is Highway Star, just because of the constant green note on the Bass fretboard on the right that imakes up the main chorus in the song. Or that could also be Guitar. I dunno, it's just a random guess.:D

[Shockwave298]

cool new website, i'm glad there is 45 songs now on the disc, can't wait

[SmokaCola]

I can make out the word "Angeles" at the top, Meaning you must be in Los Angeles when you're playing. And 4 characters are cropped off. Leaving room for "Los_"

Yeah it's LA, if you look at the bottom you can tell the 3 letters are LOS and then you see Angeles.

[Eman311]

I think he means the lyrics for the song that is being played. yep, that's what I meant

[Sons_of_Kyuss]

Website looks great! But, I miss that wild black and white picture, with the skulls, and flowers?

[mobhit101]

Looks like this community site is slowly changing too. As of right now there's the same background that's in the main site but the actual forum is still red... I'm sure by the end of the day it'll all be different... Good-bye old Rock Band forum site.

[masterx1918]

yeah soon we'll be all retro 80's colors like on the top and side of the site

[Eman311]

I wouldnt mind a little color change

[TheWolf619]

I'm just glad I can finally access my profile and make changes to it. Before I could only access the forums. doh

[Quastor]

Header's changed (thank God, having the name RockBand was bothering me), and it looks like we've lost the inbox notification.
