And I'm currently having awesomeness withdrawal. I may have to go play it again. It's not difficult at all, of course, but dammit I love that song.

Message in a Bottle is pretty fun as well, and the Motley Crue song is both fun and somewhat challenging. I didn't pick up Call Me, but HMX gets a two thumbs up from me on the three I did download!

Did horrible on the Motley Crue, but FC'd Message in a Bottle and Simple Man. 99% on Call me. No gold stars though :(

Time for bed.

-1 on Simple Man and MiaB (GS'd both though), -3ish on Call me, no GS yet. All on sightreads. The MC song is a little more difficult though, but only because I suck at alt-strumming. Is it just me or has the DLC lately been really easy to play, at least on the guitar? I know I'm improving, but not so much I should be able to GS and almost FC songs on a sightread. Thankfully the MC song is going to be a challenge to FC for me.

FC'd all 3 of the pack on expert guitar on sightreads
FC'd 1 and GS'd 2 on expert drums

Haven't played the motley crue song yet but these 3 songs were insanely easy

Yeah man I was watching a Ustream a few nights ago that BillTvShow was singing. I do not know how he does it but he sounded just like Serj Tankian! I had to ask if it was him or the game!!! Anytime you want to sing with me Bill hit me up!! Screen name same as here!

I 100% simple man on expert drums sightread, but I went too fast on the last little drumroll and broke my combo. :(

Well the songs are awesome, but they are pretty easy as well, I expect to Gold Star most of them when I play them later today.

Yeah I FC gold starred Simple Man on sight read too, way easy, great song though. FC gold starred Call Me as well, second try (stupid overstrum at the end of the triple chord run killed my sight read FC), still -1 on Message in a Bottle (theres one note in the solo that despite being easy to hit, I cant seem to do right heh). Great songs this week, but pretty easy.

On a side note Im loving Saints of LA, great song, great chart. Love it.

Full Combo

It means you got 100% with no overstrums, carrying your 4x combo through the entire song.

I can't wait to get home and play "Simple Man" - I'm going to pull up a folding chair and turn the lights down, and I'm sit with the guitar and drop the mic low enough to be in front of me while I'm seated. It's going to be awesome.

It was somewhere around 150k, give or take 10,000. I wasn't really watching my score. I ended up with 161k I think.

You guys are nuts. In a very good, positive way, but still nuts. At least I know that these things are fun. Also, if anyone wants to see the charts (like the ps3 players) I've got them uploaded here:
