Drum Solos

[grim88]

I've unlocked most songs, but haven't come across many drum solos. Are there only two songs in the game with them?

Drum solos are rare. I think Cool for Cats was the only one in RB2 to have a drum solo.

well that's not true.
Spoonman, We Got The Beat, and Painkiller are three that I can think of off the top of my head.

And yes, there are only 2 drum solos. Real Wild Child and Ghostbusters

39 in the RB platform..........id say thats pretty rare when there are almost 1000 songs.

[NoThru22]

I don't know if you should count the Rock Band 1 songs in your total because they don't turn blue during gameplay or the Rock Band Network songs until they are released, so that leaves 32.

Well maybe you should go to that thread and tell the person that wrote that list.

[NoThru22]

Hur hur, I meant in your numbering, not on my list. Right now there are only 32 songs out of 972 playable songs that have in-game drum solos.

[Ehfahq]

Once again, WHY ARE YOU TELLING ME THIS? Its not my list. I didnt start that thread. I just passed the info on.

His thread doesn't have the number "39" in it, that's something you came up with.

You could argue that maybe he should leave them out of his thread, or at least put them under a more distinct heading, but I mean, you posted the number 39 in this thread, I'd say it's reasonable for him to also post the number 32 here for the same reason, to further the conversation.

I think it's too bad that RB2 didn't pick up on the RB1 songs with sections labeled "Drum Solo" and make them into actual drum solos.

Maybe you should go tell the person who wrote that list. I didnt come up with ANYTHING. I simply counted how many songs were in the list.
