sadface. Dunno why I stay up every Friday night just for the dlc announcement anymore.

[Pointblank41]

Surprised we aren't getting any new Bush, usually they use a new single to promote the new album with a couple older hits. Definitely a good selection!

[Drumminjay108]

at least everyone will stop predicting Bush.

[jjdude1]

I was expecting Machinehead but Everything Zen is a sweet surprise!

Here's to hoping that this sells well and we'll see more Bush in the future!

[Plutarch]

Ha! I gotta find that punk on RockBandAide who gave me such attitude when I predicted that the new single wouldn't be in the three pack. Nice selection of tracks.

Edit: Machinehead was actually on my RB4 wishlist and I had it down as a key-less song. Since it does apparently have keys, I'll be interested to see where they are.

^This. Another pass for me.

I'm happy with the song choices. I thought Sound of Winter would be in it for sure.

Same here. And I'm glad it's not there (decent song, but not needed). Everything Zen is my favorite one from Sixteen Stone so YAY!

Great song choices. Looking forward to Tuesday.
