2/8/11 DLC Discussion Thread - Bob Marley 8-pack!

[twilight klaas]

Wow kinda suprised at so many close minded people. I'm glad I like lot of different music, from metal to reggae, from ska to alternative, classic etc. as long as the music is good I don't cre what style it is. So the DLC HMX has been choosing has been excellent in my opinon.

I've been loving the keys on the ska tracks on London's Calling, so 8 Marley songs to learn should be awesome. only one pro bass/guitar upgrade though...hmm maybe cuz reggae guitar is kinda repetative?

Maybe they are saving journey, metallica, hendrix, muse, for march when the squier is released?

I guess people are expecting these artists and are suffering a letdown. Aside from Hendrix, I don't think those bands have much chance of more songs on Rock band.

I don't like the drums chart for that Bob's song on RB3, so I'm not interested.

When I was fed up with my young brother listening to Bob Marley, I offered him some SUBLIME CDs. Didn't heard the rastafarai since.

People who don't mind reggae or easy stuff, you should consider checking out these songs. These sound like the most fun out of all our Marley choices thus far.

The problem is not the songs themselves. These are great. The thing is, while I do love his music, the biggest appeal of Marley stuff in Rock Band is the vast, almost universal appreciation of his music by the masses. Most people only know Legend, which is an absolute must play at any gathering. Very few artists bring people together like Bob Marley. I don't think I'm getting ahead of myself when I say most who are disappointed here don't hate this week's selection, it's just that we'd prefer to see the songs that are actually getting played getting the RB3 treatment, especially for the harmonies.

Hmm... this will be the fourth week in a row that I pass on DLC... I applaud Harmonix for the variety... but I feel like I just bought Bob Marley, haha...

Cool Story Bro.

I never bought the Legend album simply because I thought that one day down the road they would release some of the songs from it with keys so that I could get them now instead of rebuying it again (which I am very much against). I'm not unhappy that its Marley again (personally I only like 3 or 4 of his songs and one is on RB3) but now with this release, I think the chances of him having another batch of DLC that is upgraded is going to be very rare and most likely not going to happen. I was hoping for a you know Queen thing with one new and one upgraded pack.

I think Legend is safe to buy for those holding out to see if it gets updated. The reaction of these forums would be hilarious if they released updated versions of those songs.

Another week, another example of just how out of touch harmonix is. :/

Definately not a Marley fan, I'll pass. Good for fans.
