Yeah... I got another one.

10) I was skimming the "best way to contact bands" sticky up there and that lead me to this question. There a probably some people that take it upon themselves to get in touch w/ the bands/artists they want to see in the game. Is it best to ask an authoring company to get in touch w/ said band or is it ok for Average Joe to send out an email with some info? I imagine theres lots of do's and don'ts that arent covered in that thread.

The metal podcast was interesting. It revealed a vast knowledge was actually there within the walls of Harmonix. Somehow , the pro guitar - what song should we do next team - avoids those people, at least it seems that way.
I know pro guitar is still very new, listen to them on the podcast practically begging with their memories of Edddiee or even to mention celtic frost on a jacket patch. Yes it's the Oldies , we want old metal.
I want Dokken , Pantera , Iron Maiden , Celtic Frost , Strapping Young Lad , Megadeth , Metallica , Slayer , and even Anvil inducted into the Rock and roll hall of fame. That h o f should have a basement for underground stars, non mainstream due to Radio regulations that kept them off.
Young people today may not know this but just to inform you all y'all , Number of the beast and probably every band I mentioned above was not on the radio.
Back in the day by Megadeth is quite a song.
Now for the big Question for TAG -
Will oldies Metal get its own catagory that we can fill piece by piece till its full ?

Pro guitar - the question is about pro guitar.

[TerminX]

Approximately how many people are a part of TAG?

You do realize that TAG has nothing to do with Harmonix, right? They wouldn't know of such things.

So the band Tonight Alive is on the Warped Tour, I will be going to the Warped Tour on July 29th. Will I be able to play any Tonight Alive on Rock Band by then?

Regarding the Tag New Music Initiative: Is it possible for TAG to form a new entity as a non-profit (you could call it "You're it!") so donations could be tax deductable?

[BonJohndy]

I have a few more questions.

Is TAG looking for anyone to hire?

What qualifications would one need to work for TAG?

Does TAG provide the software/ memberships in order to author songs for its employees or does the individual have to acquire them by their own means?

How many people work for TAG and what are their job descriptions?

How much money can one earn working for TAG?

Also by what means is one paid, is one paid by commission of the song they author Ergo. One receives 5% of the profit earned by TAG from the song they helped authored, or are they paid by the hour/time they work Ergo. One receives $5.00 payment for each hour they work on authoring a song? What is harder to find play testers or track authors in the process of putting songs on RBN?

What education would become beneficial for one to author songs and play test?

Would TAG ever consider hiring someone with little to none prior experience on authoring and play testing?

Typically how long does it take TAG to do each get a song on RBN from the time they receive they tracks and how much work is required to do such tasks?
