The Replacements come to Rock Band...or is it Guitar Hero

[miche.cs]

Read this snipped today in an interview with big Paul Westerberg. Thought I'd share:

...I was talking to Darren about Guitar Hero and Rock Band; we turned it down before because I thought it was stupid. I was watching my son do it - him and his buddies all play it - and I figured, "Why not? What the hell? So, they want 'Kids Don't Follow'...let'em have it".

Bit inconclusive to what game he's actually giving the song to...but here's hoping we get a bit of the Mats in Rock Band.

Awesome! Let's have "Alex Chilton" and "Left of the Dial."

Alex Chilton is in the new supposed leaked Rock Band 2 setlist, according to a blog item rumor at Kotaku (http://kotaku.com/397936/rumor-dueling-rock-band-2-tracklists).

If true I sure hope we get "The Letter" by The Box Tops, as well, since I've never made a mixtape that didn't include that side by side with my favorite 'Mats song.
