The Old Man Band (Players Over 30)

[polkanuns]

.So you see,it does not make sense to purchase the upgrade for my dlc just to play those songs with you Polk.(no offense)
but if you ever feel like picking up the plastic again,feel free to invite me.

None taken.

What I see is a greyed-out song. The other player can select it , but I can't.
I glad we could explain it, prob helps people understand the madness.

I do play the plastic still; it's a nice break and there are so many awesome non-Pro songs.
Typically, if i find the incompatibilty, I will drop out, grab the plastic and invite you back. (we WILL play Runaway someday)

If Polka, or any other pro g/b player wants to play, I don't have a problem playing on disc songs, if they don't. The limitation sucks though.

Flexibilty - Always appreciated!

I agree as well... seems greedy of HMX to require pro upgrade for all band members.

I ABSOLUTELY AGREE that Harmonix pulled an unfair money-suck & limitation on what they advertised as a top- billed feature.

Not sure if anybody is still playing RB2 in this thread. I still occasionally pop in my RB1 disc so I can play those songs though. So many I wish we could import. I'd pay quite a bit just for "When We Were Young" and "Won't Get Fooled Again".

I would drop some $$ for it too. Love to play 'Epic' & a few others ( the reason I went back and bought RB1 (I started RB2 first- then found out the two were incompatible))

I would LOVE to see that export.
I would LOVE to see some of those songs get a RB3 version update.
('Epic' on Pro Keys? That would be... Well ... epic.

I load RB2 more often than not just to play online. I hate RB3's psychedelic backgrounds, and the kids who load one song 20 times.

Besides, where else can I get my fix of Let There Be Rock, Battery, and Spoonman?

I'm also playing a lot of Beatles lately.

Hey guys, just wanted to know what DLC songs you are getting? I love to play Lynyrd Skynyrd (not free bird), KISS, Pat Benetar (fire and ice), Stone Temple Pilots, Alice in Chains, Judist Preist (u got another thing com'n) Police (every breath you take), Styx (blue collar man)Stevy Nicks (stop dragg'n my heart around) DIO,(holy Diver) "NEED MORE DIO" and some country stuff...Alan Jackson (good time), Jason Aldine (she's country), Maranda Lambert (gunpowder and lead).

Since we "have" to play these songs over and over, I get songs that I love to play and enjoy doing so. So, anyone with these kinds of DLC songs please add me to your FC list and lets ROCK!!!!! This is not to say I don't enjoy the songs already on RB3, so you guys that I jam with now, please don't take this any other way. I look forward to rock'n out with you any chance we get.

I'll be on-line later today if anybody want to jam.

This isnt a brag, but I am missing about 200 DLC songs from the whole collection. So any songs are good for me.

I guess you could say that I am somewhat of and addict when it comes to the RockBand Network LOL

Might want to check out the dlcquickplay website. A few of us have accounts there (see our sig) and you can see what DLCs we have.

Sorry I haven't been online for awhile. I had a defective Sony TV that went on the fritz. Sony replaced it with a nicer tv but then the music, controller and charts in RB3 were way out of sync. (That's why I could not accept your invite last night JMK). After spending most of my evening last night trying to fix it, I think I have the timing pretty close to where it should be. Right now, the chart and music are set for 150 ms. It seems like RB3 will only let me adjust the timing in 5 ms steps. Does anyone know if can manually adjust the timing in smaller increments? Any suggestions on how to calibrate the game more efficiently? I want to get things straightened out so I can rock again. Grr.
