    Zappa and the Mothers of Invention - perfect for Rock Band!

    Anyone else think Zappa and the Mothers would be fun and still difficult for Rock Band?

    Heres my suggestions:

    You forgot Camrillo brillo, one of my personal favorite songs.

    Axl and Fogey are the experts on Zappa though, they should have a huge contribution to this.

    there are a lot of great Zappa songs that could be in RB, id never be able to list them all, lol

    if they could make the vocalist do something else, i say include an entire DLC of the Zappa album with an "Explicit Lyrics" label

    Jazz From Hell

    and its all instrumental!!!

    plus a DLC of

    the Grand Wazoo

    and Shut Up n Play Yer Guitar

    and Freak Out

    Lumpy Gravy

    We're Only In It For the Money

    Hot Rats

    Absolutely Free

    Weasels Ripped My Flesh

    Sheik Yerbouti

    Apostrophe

    ah hell, give us every Zappa album as a DLC, beats the hell out of more metal and alternative DLCs

    True, in fact any prog or Zappa would defienetly rock, and be insanly challenging on instruments

    plus with Zappa the vocalist would have fun, and be challenged, imagine singing "Crew Slut" or "My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama" with a straight face and not laugh and still get the lyrics down

    and of course, the insane instruments

    IMO the best album to release to start off is Over-nite sensation, though the lyrics in Dina-moe humm would be REALLY hard to use

    Oh God, the amount of money I'd be willing to dish out if I thought it would help get some Zappa in the game. So much of his stuff would be great. Might be a little hard to break some of it down to the bare essentials of drums, guitar bass and vocals but it would be so worth it!! Good choices in the thread thus far. Some other stuff I think might work for the game
