Alright, this week we've got the full Screaming for Vengeance album being released. I think it would be great if we could get some full expert band videos up immediately when the songs are released. I will take guitar/bass. Leave your gamertag if you would like to participate.

Vocals:

Guitar/Bass #1: WhiffleBallTony

Guitar/Bass #2: S1ckH4nds

Drums: GiZZMoE42o

As a note, it would be helpful if someone with a capture card could record. If this is possible, it would be most beneficial if the vocalist were to record.

Just another note:

DLC is released at 5 A.M. EST. That is also 2 A.M. PDT. We would need you to be able to get on at that time.

Hmm, I guess you mean for 360, which means I'm out.

I was gonna sign up for drums, then I got to thinking about the drum intro to Ridin Like the Wind....

Ouch.

I wonder if HMX is gonna leave it the way it is.

Songs for PSN don't come out until Thursday, anyway, though. At least, that's what I thought.

On Tuesday after 4pm til probably midnight central time I am in. I am expert Guitar/Bass. I have beat expert vocals, but I think I would like some practice before attempting the whole album.

Nice. Which instrument would you like to take? Also, at 5 A.M. we would need to be on, if that works.

If you look at the toolbar where there is an "A" above a black bar, simply click that to get the drop down menu and select your preferred color.

Who cares about how good the run is. This is just to display the chart. So, will you take guitar or drums?

I was planning on waking up early for this one myself. I have to leave for work at 6:30 EST, but if the store updates on time and we can get a full run in, please count me in for bass. Gamertag is same as my screenname.

Alright. Since the other guy didn't respond, I'll put you up there. If he wants, he can be a backup in case we need him. I'll go ahead and send you a friend request.

I'm in Central time, which means DLC comes out at 4 AM. Just like last week.

And just like last week, I'm doing videos again, but this time I have some bigger names appearing!

araphin on vocals
IBitePrettyHard on drums

I've got two guitarists who are interested, just depends who shows up!

While I'll admit that I am totally hoping that something happens with Marketplace updating early, I don't expect it to.

I think everyone's missing a key point, and that's that Xbox Live is going to be down for 8 hours starting at 02:00 PDT. I got a message on Live a few days ago about this.

I remember it happened on the 1st of April as well, and Stay Alive went up on Marketplace around 19:00 PDT on March 31st. So this might not be an issue. But if you're staying up just for this DLC, it might not be the best idea.

Yes, unfortunately. It would be cool if we got the album earlier, but we won't, sadly.

Cool, you can play drums. Any vocalists out there?

Sorry, Meck, I was unclear on what you wanted to do. If someone isn't there or can't connect, I'll send you an invite.

Well, araphin and Duckzorz backed out on me, and I'm not sure about IBite getting all the dlc or not

SO!

I'll sing for you guys

Gamertag is vsTerminus and yes, I'll be recording and youtubing each song.

You could try using megaproxy.com or another proxy site to get to Youtube.

On that note, the drum charts all looked pretty straight forward with the exception of one intro part.
