Okay, really, Linkin Park and Breaking Benjamin are in my top 5 favorite bands, and I love The White Stripes, Coldplay, Tenacious D, and Cake, but come on! Be a little tolerant! Instead of saying what you don't want, just request what you want. Making whiney posts like this is just gonna get people to not like you and it's not going to stop them from releasing anything or remove it from the game. Jimmy Buffett is far from my type of music, but "Margaritaville" is a nice chill song, and I found it a nice addition to my DLC collection. Chill kid.

I'm sorry that not every band is that easy to get for Rock Band. Linkin Park is my favorite band, but I'm not complaining that we don't have any. I appreciate what I'm given, and I appreciate that we get DLC every week, unlike GH III. We can always expect music, and even if it's something you don't listen to, someone else listens to it. I didn't get any Cars, nor did I get anything during the Mother Hips/Smashing Pumpkins week, I just sat there and waited another week until something I wanted came out. It's easy really.

Hmmm. . . Jimmy Buffett has spun just a handful of hits into a 40 year music career with literally millions of "Parrothead" cronies.
* He has been a #1 NYT bestselling author on both the fiction and non-fiction lists (a feat which only Ernest Hemingway had accomplished before him).
*He has had over 20 multi-platinum selling albums.
* He continues to have one of the top 20 highest grossing tours every Summer.
*He has his Margaritaville restaurants across the U.S., Mexico and the Caribbean and Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurants up and down the East Coast and heartland. . .
*Oh and he's an accomplished pilot holding 5 FAA ratings
*He has a whole line of tequila products and. . .
* He now even an Anheuser-Busch backed beer.
Did I forget anything? Oh yeah!
*He also owns his own record label where, I suppose, other talentless musicians record and market their music through.
These are actually but a few of his "talentless" accompishments. If that is talentless, show me talented you 12 year old, uneducated, dope smoking, worthless idiot!

dear lord, they're not GODS! we're supposed to complain, we PAY for the **** they put out. its a ****ing service. if we dont state our opinions then they dont have any basis of what we want, and then we end up with jimmy buffet. if linkin park is your favourite band then DEMAND it. its a mutual agreement. if they put stuff out that nobody likes then they dont get any money, so really im helping them more than you whos just sitting around not telling them if they're getting hotter and colder.
and to that other *******. it doesnt matter! even if jimmy buffet WAS talented, he's barely even rock and roll, which means he shouldnt be in this game. there are plenty of bands who i would have absolutely no complaint with in this game. Even though i dont like disturbed that doesnt mean i complained about them, but for gods sake, at least keep it fun! if you're gonna put something chilled and laid back in the game put somethine more popular, like one of the bands i listed.

Oh, and it's a service? I didn't realize that I'm subscribed to the songs they give us. It's not a service, it's a privilege. I didn't realize they HAD to put out DLC.

Yeah, I don't like the DLC so put something I like, that's the first time we've heard THAT argument....
Seriously, I'm no parrothead but I still plan to download the Buffet songs because I always thought they were fun to listen to. I believe this all goes back to the age old argument: don't like it, don't buy it. All the constant complaining is gonna do is frustrate HMX to the point w here they don't want to put anymore DLC out because they're tired of the *****ing.

I say the same for the White Stripes...can't STAND them! Not to mention they have no bassist, so that kinda rules them out for RB...

I just don't like Jack White's voice. I heard the Raconteurs on the radio the other day with no knowledge of Jack White's involvement, and was like "Man, this ****'s annoying, I can't stand this voice" and then the DJ came on afterwards and mentioned Jack White. It all made sense to me then...
BTW, not bashing on anyone who likes the White Stripes, I'm just expressing why I, personally, cannot stand them.
Daytman
06-05-2008, 09:38 PM
I like The White Stripes, but it's really easy to understand why someone wouldn't. I listen to a lot of wierd alternative rock, so I'm really good at looking past the voice.

Dude whoever is complaining about Jimmy Buffett, the other DLC, and saying that HMX is a service for providing DLC that only this kid wants need to be ***** slapped across the face and have a freakin reality check. HMX, as previously stated by somebody who has common sense, is not a service. They don't have to provide us with DLC every week. But they do and they also try to reach EVERY fan base, including the Buffett fans. I haven't liked every DLC but I don't complain. I wait and see what next week will bring. With a little patience your band will come out as DLC. All you can do is request. The people who demand to have the DLC they want are whiny little *****es who cry because something didn't go their way and need to be firebombed out of society.
FYI: YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DOWNLOAD A PACK YOU DON'T WANT SO CHILL OUT, SHUT UP, AND WAIT FOR NEXT WEEK!

Blush! I can only think that that ******** was directed at me. Grow up! My above insult of you should have probably included overly-serious, pasty white skinned idiot!
Dude, you are telling the forum "Let's keep it fun" and bagging on Jimmy Buffett in the same breath! You really need to get out more.
Tell you what, grab a pair of sunglasses - a hula shirt and some cool swimtrunks and get that pasty white body of yours to a beach. Maybe surf a bit. . . check out the girls, play some beach volleyball!!!!
THEN. . . listen to some Buffett mixed in with some Sublime, Bob Marley and Jack Johnson. I think you might start to get it. If not, oh well. . . I tried.
Buffett is Rock n' Roll to a different generation, he's also Folk, Blues and a little bit Country. He actually transcends all of these genres at the same time holding more talent in his pinky finger than you probably have in your whole body.
So my friend, breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth. Fire down a shot of Margaritaville tequila and chase it with a Landshark lager. . .
Don't worry, I'm buying!! And learn to enjoy the real world . . .
Maybe at that point you'll take this silly game a LOT less seriously.

You creeps who get all irate about people flaming the tastes of others really need to relax. "I hate it when people can't accept that other people like different music". Intolerant of intolerance. Boo-hoo. When you're passionate about the music you like, naturally you might be passionate about your dislikes as well. It's fun, as any music fan with more than two dozen albums can tell you. Most people can agree that Michael Bolton is no fun. But it's okay to smear him, because 98% of people who don't need viagra/rogaine hate his music. Heaven forbid if you happen to like something someone else is flaming. What a bunch of hypocrites. Have a sense of humor. If someone were to tell me the White Stripes suck (I love 'em), oh well. Maybe I'll step up to the plate and defend 'em, or maybe I'll ignore it (depending on how articulate the attack was). But I'm not gonna get my junk in a tangle over it.

Besides, think of Buffet as extra. The real DLC was Disturbed, Jimmy Buffet was something fun on the side. I don't particularly like his music, and I think he's a tropics-obsessed lunatic, but it's fun for Rock Band. The game always needs more music that people can have fun hanging out and playing with a large group of people, that's the whole point of the game.

Hmmm. . . Jimmy Buffett has spun just a handful of hits into a 40 year music career with literally millions of "Parrothead" cronies.
* He has been a #1 NYT bestselling author on both the fiction and non-fiction lists (a feat which only Ernest Hemingway had accomplished before him).
*He has had over 20 multi-platinum selling albums.
* He continues to have one of the top 20 highest grossing tours every Summer.
*He has his Margaritaville restaurants across the U.S., Mexico and the Caribbean and Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurants up and down the East Coast and heartland. . .
*Oh and he's an accomplished pilot holding 5 FAA ratings
*He has a whole line of tequila products and. . .
* He now even an Anheuser-Busch backed beer.
Did I forget anything? Oh yeah!
*He also owns his own record label where, I suppose, other talentless musicians record and market their music through.
These are actually but a few of his "talentless" accompishments. If that is talentless, show me talented you 12 year old, uneducated, dope smoking, worthless idiot!
How many of these reflect his talent, exactly? If you're referring to his musical talent, that KIND of translates to the fact that he's had multi-platinum albums (only 3, according to wikipedia, along with 6 single platinum and 8 gold albums). But really, that and most of the other accomplishments here are just a reflection of how many people enjoy his music. Millions of people like what he does, which means they'll buy his cds, go see him in concert (every year), buy his books, etc. Also, note just how many of his albums have been compilations or live albums...the man barely even writes new material anymore.
Remember, kids, it doesn't take "talent" to have a multi-platinum album or write a NYT best-selling book. You just have to have broad appeal. These things don't always go hand-in-hand.
Marketing suits out there see the kind of fanbase Buffett has and license his names for restaurants, tequila, and beer. How much of a hand does he actually have in the day-to-day operations of those businesses? Probably very little, they just bear his name.
Anyone can have a record label. I could start one today and start putting out music from people just as musically talentless as myself.
The only accomplishment you list here that I'm actually impressed by is the piloting bit. That takes dedication and a lot of hard work. The rest of it was a cakewalk for Buffett.

Wow, another thoughtless post from seatorwidestance. Honestly, I'm not passionate at all about the music I dislike. I would never just come up here and say "no more this for Rock Band" because I respect that, although I don't want it, hundreds of thousands of other people want it. My opinion, compared to the opinions of all those people, doesn't really matter. Plus, if something I liked came out *coughDisturbedcough*, it would definitely get on my nerves that it pisses someone off that I finally get one of my favorite bands in Rock Band, and that someone doesn't want my favorite genre in Rock Band. Like my signature says, I don't give a **** what bands you don't like. I'd definitely listen if you talked about what bands you do like.

I am definitely NOT gonna buy the Buffet songs. Why? cauz I just don't like country music. Why? cauz I'm not from USA. ;)
This is my point : Europe had the Euro pack, USA got the Buffet pack.
Sorry guyz but it's the truth : country (even parrothead!) is part of your culture and it's ok as it is.
It's ok to like it. I don't understand why, but YOU CAN. :p
I don't think this pack is gonna hit hard in other countries... maybe here in Canada, but only in Alberta-Saskat.-Manitoba. Definitely not here in Québec.
Don't read me wrong, I don't want to complain, just tell that everyone should have a part of the cake. This one is yours, my neighbours from the south.
So, can we have ours, a french-canadian pack? :p
Or just a french (Québec-France-other french country like Belgium) pack would be fine...
I WANT MY PART OF THE CAKE!!!

You may have noticed that I changed the title of this thread. Regardless of whether or not you like an artist, or feel that their material deserves a slot in rock band, I fail to see why that means they "must die". That kind of over reaction is absurdly immature.
Also, bear in mind that your "basic essentials" may not be everyone else's. I appreciate your enthusiasm and interest in pushing the bands that you love, but I'm certain you can find a way to do it without cursing or suggesting that an artist you don't personally care for should be put to death.
Yes, we want to hear your feedback on existing DLC and suggestions for future DLC. Yes, I think those suggestions can be made in a reasonable and rational way, without asterix laden curse words and crass insults. We've all got different opinions, so let's please be respectful of that.

You need to bare in mind that Rock Band developers need to focus on the music almost everyone likes, if they included too much of one type of rock....people could get bored and might not like that sort of rock. They have a wide range at the moment, but they must keep this up, dont complain, they will probably have ur music later on. The music store can only get bigger

Wow a Sextuple post... That's a first that I've seen. It's called the edit/quote multiple posts button.
That aside: The developers have already stated that the game, while being titled Rock Band, is not Rock exclusive, which is why we have songs such as Epic or Sabotage in the game.
Now, your only partially right on the privilege/service part. Yes, they benefit from making DLC, but whats to stop them from completely stopping DLC to work on a new game? Nothing. Therefore, it is both a privilege and a service. That being said, they do not exclusively earn money from DLC. They provide software for the consumer to enjoy, that does not necessarily mean DLC.
Also, using your economics argument, you're basically stating why everyone else's musical taste should be catered to. It is beneficial to Harmonix as a company to release songs across the musical spectrum, and not only cater to one person's tastes.
You're claiming that Band X is better than Buffett. That's your opinion. In my Opinion (The same as many others from what I can see), Buffett was an excellent addition to the game, providing us with fun tracks to play. You can't have an argument whose very foundations rest on your own opinion.
Now can you stop whining? Disturbed was also released so people like you could enjoy something while others could enjoy one or both artists.
