Yep. Stratavarious, Evergrey, Savatage, Kamelot, on and on and on and on.... and we'll never see shit all from any of them (though maybe some more DT is possible and would be nice)
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Stratovarious was going the RBN route.

So there's one spanish song. I still want German songs, fuckers.

Kettcar plz. They've also got a keyboard player, so it'd fit right in.

You'll get the German version of Punk Rock Song and you'll be happy you got anything!

You're in NYC aren't you? have you had the pleasure of seeing them? I had a friend that went to pastery chef school in Brooklyn (maybe manhattan) he saw them like 6 times while he was there, he actually turned me onto them a long time ago.

http://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Squier-Bullet-Strat-with-Tremolo?sku=517304

those are likely the real-tars they will be using, I don't see how, at that base price harmonix can make them cost more than 200$.

yea I've seen them twice. although the first time I was kind of dragged. They are pretty good though.

They're using Squier Strats, which are just a step above the ones you linked. I'm gonna guess MTV(or Mad Catz or whoever) cut a deal with Fender to buy the guitars at manufacturing price or close to that and give Fender a cut of the profit from the sell.

Yeah thats what I assumed too, they are getting them below cost more than likely and probably kicking fender a lot of money. Now that they are transitioning to real guitars licensing is more important than ever for the Fender name, so it would be a hard proposition for them to turn down. If I had to guess 160$ max for the real-tar MAYBE 170 but thats a big maybe.

Before anyone tries to say the strat and beatles were 100, they have to re-adjust the pricing to curve to the pro guitars, or if they didn't it would easily increase the likelyhood of someone purchasing a real-tar over a plastic one. If you went into the store and saw it for 50-60 dollars more, thats in the "why not?" impulse buy price difference.

That'd be fine with me. I think Pedro really likes them (I'm not a huge fan but like some of their stuff) so I'm sure he'll be happy to hear that as well.

Didn't know that. It's so bad :lol

We already got some German songs in RB1. Too bad it was pretty much shit except "Hier kommt Alex". That's the only point GH is better, they got Rammstein, Beatsteaks and Sportfreunde Stiller...

And I suppose Crazy Train on keyboards will be a blast.

Man, people on here love MGMT, but this gets dissed? Whatever.

Cahill isn't on Team MGMT, so that really doesn't work. If Dave said it was shit, you might have an argument.

There's a few passion pit supporters here, october likes them, I do too.

Man the real guitar aspect is going to extend this game so much for me, I used to play the same songs over and over again until they were perfect. Zeppelin is a must now, they have some of the most satisfying songs to play. Over the hlls and far away plz hmx.

Awww... Don't be mad... :lol Everything gets knocked on here. And by "people on here love MGMT" you mean Dave and Costanza?

Besides, Terr backed you up on your request.

I wasn't singling anyone out, just thought it was odd to call out something for lack of guitar when crap like Gaga is in the store. No biggie.

I would pay $3 a song for some Savatage :(
 
Cahill said:
Don't recall if that was mentioned back when we first started hearing about the KB, but good pick none-the-less.

I just think it would be a really good song for not only Keyboards, but for everything else too. Plus it's a classic in my book.

Archie's GaGa sense is surely going haywire. Expect him to be here shortly to discuss your comment. :)


Yeah, I should know better :lol


I'm done with this train of thought now, I'll get back to whining about the lack of Bloc Party DLC.

I did. It was back when RBN first came out and I posted in the thread some bands that labels wanted to do, and Stratovarious was one of them. Dark Tranquility and iwrestledabearonce were a couple others.
