The Beatles: ROCK BAND - Rumors and Facts

[MidniteVulture83]

Great! Thank you.

Today I got me a pair of cool Rock Band drumsticks. They're the black and purple ones, with the rubber tips. I love them! I already have the RB rubber pads for my drumkit, so now you can't hear a thing when I play. No clac-clac-clac. And I get a much better rebound. Perfect for the rolls in "Ticket to Ride"!!! :-D ...

Where did you get them and what size are they?

Hi, I am new to this board & loving The Mania!!

I got a pre-order voucher from HMV which entitles me to 3 free game songs. I have a code but the website doesnt seem to be working. Have I left it to late to sign up?! Plus what songs will be available to download?

Sorry if this has been posted before ;-)

I got the email too. The link they send doesn't seem to work. Try this one:

Got them at Best Buy ... they're the standard size, I believe ... just like the drumsticks that come with the game, only black and shiny, and with purple stripes, the RB logo, and two removable purple rubber tips. If you combine those sticks with the RB-branded silencing pads, you get great rebound and very very little noise. Oh and the sensitivity of the drum doesn't decrease one bit.

Anybody know what the last photo-required prize is? I got as far as the Abbey Road with Paul, Ringo, and George video, but I wanna know what the last prize is so I can decide whether or not I spend all my time trying to 5 star damn Dear Prudence.

Get Back music video set to clips from the Let It Be movie. Stuff I've never seen before. Pretty funny. Especially George's shoes.

Anybody know if the similarities between Hey Bulldog's riff and a spy movie theme song (I'm not sure which one, I think it was the Mission Impossible series) is purely coincidental or intentional?

I never noticed...do you know about how old this movie is?

It was a TV show before it was a movie. Wiki tells me that the series started in 1966.

For what's it worth, I don't hear a huge amount of similarity, but I have an atrocious ear for picking up things like this.

It doesn't sound like Mission Impossible to me, but more like the piano/bassline from the Peter Gunn theme (commonly known for its use in The Blues Brothers and Spy Hunter). That aired between '58 and '61, but I don't know how popular it was in the UK.
