    Y - O
    Y
    YR
    Y
    Y - O


    etc...



    That's fine, but then something else comes along where the bass pedal is off from the pad hits, and it gets me all uncoordinated. It's not that I can't stand the business of what's on the screen and can't comprehend that, seeing that I do it with guitar all the time... it's that I can't get me feet to go at a different rhythm from my hands.
    I'm the exact same way. I'm fine as long as the bass is the same as the stick hit. When it's not, I just start flailing around.

    Half the time, I'll do a double stick hit instead of the bass pedal.

    It's pretty bad,

      Can you imagine the drums on Metallica's "One"? That would be an absolute nightmare for you and Blzer. LOL.

          I've tried songs like YYZ, Painkiller and Visions on expert drums...

                Haha yeah, I've given quite a donation to Harmonix.

                It's weird to think because I went 6 months after the release of RB1 before I got any DLC. All 261 have been since late June.

                I think I'm missing 108 songs. The last stuff I add will be The Pixies and any covers.

                  I went and literally previewed every DLC song on the list. Honestly, I don't like about 350 of them.

                  At least, not enough to buy them.

                    Best bet is going on Youtube and checking out the charts.

                    So many songs out there that are fun to play. But I understand not wanting to spend money on something you may/may not like.

                    I just like having a bunch of songs so everyone will have something to enjoy. Plus, I love finding new music.

                      So true. I do this for every song. I find myself wasting a good half hour sometimes doing this.

                      I'll be honest. There are some bands I really didn't care for or even know about. Fast forward 6 months later and I really opened up my iTunes downloading and listening interests. LOL.

                        Re: Rock Band 2

                        Yeah, definitely.

                        I can't recall all of the ones that I have, but here are a few off the top of my head:

                        Track Pack Vol. 2 songs
                        AC/DC track pack
                        No Doubt pack
                        All American Rejects - Move Along
                        All American Rejects - Dirty Little Secret
                        Blink 182 - All the Small Things
                        30 Seconds to Mars - The Kill
                        Boston - More Than a Feeling
                        Staind - This Is It
                        Jonathan Coulton - Skullcrusher Mountain
                        Red Hot Chili Peppers - Under the Bridge
                        Free - All Right Now
                        Brad Paisley - Mud on the Tires
                        The Killers - Mr. Brightside
                        Squeeze - Tempted


                        I also just took the free songs (only ones that come to mind are Charlene and Headphones On). I also got the 20 free bonus songs, uhh... and some others. Again, they're just not really coming to mind.

                        Definitely looking to by 3's and 7's, Fortunate Son, Baba O'Riley, and maybe War Pigs and Heroes (I just wish it was the Wallflowers' cover). There are a few others on my list, but again, I just can't justify paying $1.99 for some of these songs.

                          If there's anything you won't regret, get the entire Boston pack and Best of The Who.

                          Classic Rock at it's finest.

                          I actually just got Real Good Looking Boy yesterday and had a blast playing it and simply listening to it. I had never heard it before and went months without it.

                          Worth every penny. Plus, if you ever have any older family/friends playing, they're sure to love it as well.

                            You know, I was thinking of getting the entire Boston pack, but right now my wallet is near empty, and I don't think I could get the whole thing anyway. Plus, doesn't help that I already purchased More Than a Feeling, you know?

                                At one point I was within like 21 songs of Eli. Since then he's opened up a sizeable lead on me. Now I have 315 total, so he's got 85 more downloads than me. 176 downloads isn't too shabby either
