Runesmith's Rock Band 3 Setlist

[Runesmith]

After working on this setlist on-and-off for the past few weeks, I think I have come up with something that is fairly solid in terms of both variety and quality. I also feel like the setlist is quite plausible: I could easily see a setlist like this happening in the next game with the way HMX seems to be progressing.

However, I do feel like my setlist leans sharply towards the middle difficulty tier on all instruments, with few super-difficult songs in sight. I would love to hear feedback from anybody willing to give it, especially if you have any suggestions for song switching, genre/decade distribution, or balancing the difficulty more evenly.

[instantdeath999]

Great list! Nice variety in there, looks like everyone has something they can enjoy, and even seems realistic. My only complaint is that some staples of the series (artist that have been in both games) are missing, like Rush, The Who, Metallica, Soundgarden, etc.

[Shadowrida]

Gotta hand it to you GREAT LIST Lotsa of songs I havent seen and some I have though I want Aerials on Rock Band as much as everyone else its chosen so much. I'd like to see "The Prison Song" thats an underplayed good song.

[Fizzeler]

Great list happy to see Roxy Music and other good lesser known bands on there

[afterstasis]

fantastic list, runesmith... one of the best we've had posted around here.

[goldencrepe]

nice

[A New Pyro Fool]

S'alright.

[jayou521]

One of the best lists I've seen in a while. Love the variety, and it's awesome that you included The Seatbelts

Could use more 90's and 00's alternative/indie, and classic Prog rock though.

[Kasil]

Could use more 90's and 00's alternative/indie, and classic Prog rock though.

This.

Also, could have picked a better Paramore song (maybe Fences or Born for This). And I know Jesus of Suburbia has a video somewhere. There was a short version and a long version.

[TheClashTheClashTheClash]

Get a different Sex Pistols song...Holidays in the Sun is a rip-off of In The City by The Jam so might aswell put that song in there too
