Ok so I'm old. Big deal. I still reserved "Rock Band" long before it got available in stores. So I guess I was among the firsts to get one here in Montreal. Since then, I played guitar, drums, sang every song available, downloaded quite a few. This game is just great.
Classic rock is still the best for me. Although I'm a big fan of metal like ACDC, Metallica and stuff like that. What about songs that nobody even think about? What about classic rock that sounds just right for Rock band?
What about:

Hot legs by Rod Stewart
Rebel Yell By Billy Idol
Sharp dressed man by ZZTop
Turn me loose by Loverboy
Rocky Mountain way by Triumph
In these arms by Bon Jovi
Sweet child of mine by Guns N Roses
Voodoo thing by Colin James
Get over it by The Eagles
Animal by Def Leppard
Any way you want it by Journey
Roll with the changes by REO Speedwagon
Bad case of loving you by Robert Palmer
Fall to pieces by Velvet Revolver
Under my thumb by Streetheart

....why not? They're all great songs. If you don't know some of them then take the time to listen to all. In their entirety. Yeah they're old songs. So what? I learned to like Bang Camaro, Paramore and others...
Rock Band rocks!

Yeah, some Billy Idol would be great, as well as some of the other selections you mentioned.
I personally would love some Pulp to be included (especially 'Common People' and 'Disco 2000'), and of course one of my all time favorites 'Narcotic' from Liquido. Do yourself a favor and google that last one if you don't know it, its a GREAT song from '98 from a little known (at least in the states) German Band that deserves to be included.

There are just too many songs that should make it into Rock Band :)

Well, Velvet Revolver isn't old... They haven't even made the decade yet and they've already broken up.

But as for the rest, I think those songs are pretty cool but since i don't play drums or vocals, I can do without the songs that were in GH games, like Sweet Child 'O Mine and Sharp Dressed Man.

Rocky Mountain Way is by Joe Walsh, not Triumph.

I find it kind of funny that all the songs you listed have all been asked for on several occasions since I've joined this forum.

I agree that Rebel Yell is hardly ever suggested and would be fun on rock band... but a bunch of those are suggested all the time. Sweet Child of Mine? I mean every thread mentions GnR and all their songs.

A great one that I never see suggested is Bob Marley's Buffalo Soldier. That would be a great addition in my book.

Oh and How about Drivin' and Cryin's "Fly Me Couragous", and School of Fish's "Three Strange Days"

Velvet Revolver isn't classic rock. As for the rest of your list. I've see all those requested. Some are available on other music games already.

That's the genius of the pick. Nobody asks for it because it's already there. That's out of the box thinking for you. :D
