I see lots of threads with people commenting on the lack of heavier songs on the RB set list. I'm a fan of TooL, NIN, etc ... but let's not forget about the more melodic ones that have also slipped through the net. I can't play a real instrument and therefore play RB to be able to sing and play the 'feel good' songs that conjure up 'happy times' in my life.
I see that the Cars will be available for download on the 27/05/08 (which I for one am very happy to see). How about more bands like this that aren't about rapid finger/foot exercises (no offence to anyone)? HMX have tried to cater to a wide audience with RB and have (unfortunately) come under fire for this.
One of the beautiful things about these games is that you discover bands that you may have NEVER listened to or heard of before. With that in mind, I'd like to nominate 'The Outfield' as a band that falls into this category.

They won't be everyone's cup of tea, but reading the thread attached to this song (you tube) I’m not the only one who feels this way aka brings back happy memories. This particular song is one of my all time favs and would be (in my opinion) great in RB!
Another great band missing is 'Grand Funk Railroad'!
Thanks for reading my thoughts and enjoy your day wherever you are in the World.
