Qman's RB3 Setlist (72 songs + 16 Launch DLC)

[QmanRocks]

Pulled this together in about twelve semi-continuous hours. I made it from a combination of songs I'm astonished haven't shown up yet, songs that seemed mainstream/popular enough to be obvious choices, songs that were consistently popular in their bands' official DLC threads, and a couple songs that were in Guitar Hero.

I had a fairly solid idea of which bands to use, but I got lots of help from some friends on AIM with picking specific songs. And the aforementioned songs that were popular DLC picks for those bands.

Bold = freshly added, as per norm.

Also featuring a bunch of launch DLC tracks, so I'd have a place to put the stuff that almost made it in but didn't, or got demoted from the game proper at some point after making the thread.

3 Doors Down - Kryptonite
Aerosmith - Dream On
The B-52's - Rock Lobster

Rush - 2112 Overture
Queen - Killer Queen
Smash Mouth - All Star
Soundgarden - Outshined
Sum 41 - In Too Deep
Talking Heads - And She Was

So! Tell me what you think! I did my best to balance genres and decades, and to include the bands that had songs in both RB1 and RB2.

EDIT: Took out two songs that were already/soon to be DLC and one that was in there for stupid reasons. Swapped out the Green Day song and moved Basket Case to the launch DLC.

YES! LP song is awesome and i've been obbsessing over us getting head like a hole for about 5 months.Only needs Weezer.

[timmay9]

This is absolute trash.

[punk-picasso]

also green day should be welcome to paradise not basket case

[jayou521]

Here are my thoughts:

Alice Cooper's School's Out is being released as DLC this coming Tuesday. Pretty Fly (For A White Guy) is already DLC.

You need to change the Styx song. The Grand Illusion would be so much better.

I love your Dream Theater choice, my fav song from them

Overall though I think your list lacks metal~ and some lesser known artists~ 72 songs is very little

Alice Cooper's School's Out is being released as DLC this coming Tuesday. Pretty Fly (For A White Guy) is already DLC.

*facepalm* Damn damn damn damn damn.

I honestly don't know that many Styx songs. Just that one and Blue Collar Man, the latter of which is already DLC.

Also, I was aiming for more songs than RB1 but not necessarily as many as/more than RB2.

[jayou521]

I honestly don't know that many Styx songs. Just that one and Blue Collar Man, the latter of which is already DLC.

That's even more of a reason not to put a song like Mr. Roboto on your list.

Just listen to The Grand Illusion => http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZW8TlrYhBxk

[timmay9]

Mr. Roboto is a disgrace, just like 3/4 of the songs on this list.

Yeah, I don't know what I was thinking.

Mr. Roboto is a disgrace, just like 3/4 of the songs on this list.

Do you have a more specific opinion than "it's crap"? Which songs do you not think are crap, out of sheer curiosity?

Also, re: lack of metal - I don't know a lot of metal bands. I'll try to rectify that and get more metal in there.

[bse523]

No timmay doesn't. Anything that's not in his pathetic wishlist of no-name crap is junk to him.

On that note, remove Limp Bitzkit please. Then your list won't fail.
