Drink, Play, Be Merry

[ADBjester]

I just sent out 15 invites from 'ADBjester' to the current list.

I downloaded a few more songs so that I'm not holding back any group through lack of variety -- I prefer playing "random" sets, as opposed to hand-picking my favorites. It's more fun that way, and it makes the game more challenging to have to learn or pass a new song you've NEVER heard before. (I promise, I'll stick to Medium for a while until I'm more comfy with the new catalog!)

I'm now up to RB1+RB2+189 DLC (which includes the 20 free and the AC/DC pack).

For the new downloads, I stayed in my comfort zone (i.e. I didn't get the Disturbed pack, or the Thrash pack, or even all of Priest's "Screaming for Vengeance" (I did already have "Another Thing Coming" -- gotta have that).

Pretty much the "Nu-Metal" is out, but I'm willing to experiment in some alternative... so I picked up Nine Inch Nails, The Killers, Foo Fighters, Weezer, Oasis, Queens of the Stone Age, and more. I *will* do metal, but want my metal to have a bit more melody (and at least a real rhythm line) and a bit less thrash. (Give me "The Black Album" over "RIde The Lightning" any day, and yes, I admit I liked Van Halen more after they added keyboards on 1984).

Even so, I'm up for some "non-thrash" metal as well, including Sabbath, Metallica, Avenged Sevenfold, Motley Crue, and even a couple punk songs from the Dead Kennedys (from my high school years).

Add to that 40 "singles" downloads from System of a Down and Iron Maiden, down through the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Radiohead (more, please! OK Computer!), down through some more poppy fluff like Paramore, No Doubt, T-Rex and the Monkees.

No country. No thrash. Other than that, I'm ready to ROCK.

Hey DJFire_CFR, that is an awesome spreadsheet. Here is the rest of my info. I am 29 and live on the east coast. I usually play somewhere between 6-9 pm and I don't play online with BNS. Also, could you give me some more info. about the dlcquickplay.com. Thanks.

Nevermind about the info. I just signed up. What do you need from me so you can link it up? Thanks.

Disturbed pack, the Thrash pack, Priest's "Screaming for Vengeance"

Pretty much the "Nu-Metal" is out, but I'm willing to experiment in some alternative...

Avenged Sevenfold, No country.

I picked out some you said you don't have that I personally like. Disturbed is good for some harder songs, not the hardest, but pretty decent tier 4s and 5s. The Thrash pack is one of my favorites right now, with "Thrasher" being my most favorite song in the whole of the game. It's a beast on any instrument, but it's definitely fun. It'll be worth looking into when you're more comfortable with upper tier 5s and 6s, they'll grow on you. To give you an idea, I was never into Thrash metal, my main genres are Punk and Alternative that I listen to in my free time.

Avenged Sevenfold is another really good one to get. Everyone I know loves those songs.

Also, don't push the country songs aside too quick. A lot of people did when they first came out, and they're without a doubt some of the BEST songs in the game. Especially "Sin Wagon" and "Gunpowder and Lead". They all play really well on guitar and drums.

If anyone has any questions about DLC, feel free to send me a message and I'll let you know how it is. Other good singles to check out are "Moving to Seattle" and "Perfekte Welle." Pop-y female singers, easy songs, but good songs. I think a lot of people overlook them.

As for information that didn't get put into the site:

Age - 23, 24 next month
DLC type - put me as 11, I have it all and will continue to keep up-to-date
Time on - usually 5+ pm PST (8 pm EST), any time on the weekends. I have my status set as it, but if I happen to not respond in a couple minutes, it's probably a roommate playing. I'll check messages and respond between songs if I'm in a set, or immediately coming back from leaving the room.
BNS - Guitar yes, drums no. They don't influence other people online for those that don't know, it only adds to local players.

Hey Fire,

I got to thinking (Yeah I know you said I wasn't allowed to anymore, but I did anyways).

On your page that you created, how about another section that shows which messenger we use (if it applies), such as you and I use Yahoo Messenger.

yeah I could set up something like if others want to give their messenger name.. I'll mess around with the page, and see how I can set that up... What I might do is put what lvl of difficulty they play on the instruments they play, then you can just hover over the instrument to see their difficulty..

That or, I might just make a program for all of this lol It would make things so much easier for me... But yeah, I can do that..
