Now that is one fun fun fun song to play on the drums. That definitely makes my Top 5 Drum Songs List. (I'll have to think about the other 4). By the way, 'Call Me' is also well worth the money for you drummers out there. 'Simple Man' is pretty much like the song title, simple. Motley Crue? Meh, but for 80 points, why not. Got to keep my DLC complete.

Message in a bottle is really fun on both expert and hard. I lean towards hard on this one cause you can basically play with one hand for the whole song, which is funny.

As to the two poster screennames...ew.
But yes, MiaB is a really awesome drum part. Best all-around song this week.

ALL of the Police songs are fun on drums.
Even Next to You if you can master it.

LOL...I often write "lol" even though I didn't actually do so....not this time. That was one of the funniest comments I've ever seen on here. Well done.
As for the topic, sorry I cannot comment yet. Downloading it for PS3 on Thursday.

QFT - They're my favorites, and each pretty distinct.

Message in a Bottle is my favorite Police song to drum so far.
They're all good, but MiaB strikes the perfect balance between the frantic pace of NtY & Truth Hits Everybody and the slower pace of the other three.

yea police have a lot of songs in this game because the instruments are all pretty strong. I'll take as much police as they can give me. and if they ever feel liek throwing more rush my way i'd be overzealous.

I agree Message in a Bottle is a blast - I was pleasantly surprised.
My vote goes to this and the Crue for the best drum tracks of the week (and for a while).

RUSH WOULD TRUMP THEM ALL........if they released more rush..
Seriously, Working Man, and Limelight are some of the funnest Drum songs in the game. (Neil Peart FTW)

Yeah, the Rush songs are awesome as well. The reason why I dig MiaB is because it has interesting beats a decent tempo (you hear that 'Next to You'!?!) without any crazy drum rolls. See, my red pad just doesn't register hits well. I've replaced it once already but at this point I'll have to accept that I'll never get 100% on any song with a drum roll. Hopefully, RB2's drums or a third party set will be better.

You can basically play with one hand the whole song on expert. At least that's what I do. Playing those sets of triplets with two hands screws up my rhythm.

You realize that Neil Peart wasn't the drummer for Working Man right?

Really? I'd lose rhythm faster using one hand - I find the 2 hand triplets quite natural.
Of course I prompty get creamed on the quick double red hehehe

Yeah, I have to agree..
Message in a Bottle is just plain FUN on drums!
It's up there with LimeLight in terms of sheer creativity. I love it!!!
And of course i've said it once, i'll say it again.. I'd pay over $100 for a Complete RUSH album -easily-.
Message in a Bottle - Great DLC Choice.

Yes, I do. But Live he plays it somewhat differently.

I have to agree. I am a huge Police and Crue fan from back in the day, and I cannot stop playing these songs!
Now if only my red and yellow drums were not dropping notes, I would have gold starred it by now as much as I have played it!:D

Yeah, this one goes up there with Next to You, Cherub Rock, Flirtin' With Disaster, and ...And Justice For All as the best drum songs in the game.
(Oh, Move Along is fun too ;P)
