Entire Dream Theater catalog a possibility!

That's the official John Petrucci (guitarist for DT) forum, and in it are posts by Tabs (the same guy talking about doing their RBN work before) saying that plans are still in the works, but unfortunately it doesn't seem like it has gone much farther than planning for now.

Yes!! Good to hear. He also mentioned there that he's down for doing some LTE as well, as long as they sort out the legal stuff.

Sounds like quite the legal challenge of they are still working on it after this long, but I have to believe it'll be worth the effort. Gotta keep hope alive!

Super glad to see they're still working on it. This simply needs to happen!

This simply needs to happen!

And enthusiasm needs to keep happening!

The one problem about all of this from my perspective is the label restrictions. If one group submits a song by a band under one label, that group becomes the only group who can submit songs by that label. Meaning that since they are on Roadrunner Records, they would have to get their own charting group for the entire label, or find a charting group already established who would be willing to do music for the entire label. Otherwise, we would have a group doing Dream Theater then every other Roadrunner band would be left behind. (Opeth, Slipknot, Killswitch Engage, Black Stone Cherry, Porcupine Tree.)

So essentially, if this does go through, it won't be just a Dream Theater thing because the label would probably want music from all of their artists being authored.

I wish we could all leave slipknot behind. Won't be any dead memories in my heart for sure.

If Rockband 3 has keyboard in it just imagine the keyboard parts in these songs!!!! <3

Hopefully everything works out well.

Yes but apart from a possible DT song on disc (or as a single/DT pack), will it be possible for Rock Band Network songs to have keyboard parts?

[Xenigma]

RB3 with keyboard means all the better a chance for seeing Dream Theater, I think. Plenty of opportunity for insane keyboard solos!

There's already rumors of an RBN 2.0, although it's unknown what can be expected from such an upgrade, nor when it will happen. I'd be shocked if both harmonies and keyboard weren't included.
