Buying all!!

On Little South of Sanity, Steven Tyler says "Listen" before going into the "Dream on..." and has the line "balls turn blue".

Rockin' the Joint and the HMX preview have "Now listen" and "dreams turn blue"

I really think it's Rockin' the Joint.

Now that you mention it, you're probably right. I guess we'll have to see though, won't we!

I believe you guys misspelled it. It's Arrowsmith. The nobel profession of crafting long, cylindrical projectiles.

I know it is a joke, but a person who makes arrows is actually called a fletcher.

I still can't believe I am getting Sweet Emotion and Walk this way in Rock Band.

And I still can't believe it's not butter! (Sorry, had to)

I'd say this pack is awesome but it's completely unnecessary. You know it, I know it, and the American people know it. I would refer non-American board members to the U.S. Declaration of Independence, which enshrines the awesomeness of a big Aerosmith pack in this stage of RB's life as a truth we hold to be self-evident (in the footnotes under "the pursuit of happiness." Look closely).

Not only the band and pack size, but the song selection is extremely impressive. The 2 most indispensable Aerosmith songs, in my humble opinion, are "Dream On" and "Sweet Emotion." Indeed, those are the kind of iconic rock tunes that we haven't seen since "All Along the Watchtower" or the last CCR pack and which I'd fully despaired of ever seeing again. With those 2 included, the rest is gravy. I haven't heard anything from the new album yet but the whole pack is insta-bought because I want to support the effort if nothing else.

The only arguable downside is that, after 3 weeks with only 2 songs as official DLC (RIP, weekly streak; you were legendary in your time), I'd almost processed the end of this 5 year habit. But this DLC is a stark reminder of how great this game can be, and causes my hopes to elevate again a bit when that's probably still not called for. But for this week at least, if I may steal a line from Hemingway, it's very pretty to think that we may continue to see excitement-worthy DLC in the future.

no, you're thinking of that new RPG by Ubi that allows you to play with a real bow and arrow.

I think the live version of "Dream On" is off of Rockin' the Joint. The year doesn't match what Harmonix has (the album was released in 2005), but it sounds like the same version as the preview video.

It's not very well known, because it was only on the DVD side of a DualDisc release.

well.... that kinda sucks. my sympathies to all the vocalists out there. i'll get it anyway, but i wish they could've provided a better live version for HMX to work with.

YES YES YES YES YES YE.... umm... YES!

Probably grabbing the whole pack! Great week!
