I hope that with RB3 coming out we can finally get some Springsteen.

With the keys now we can amazing tracks like Jungleland and Thunder Road.

I keep hoping for a Rock Band Springsteen game rather than just a few tracks on a disc or DLC, just too big of a catalogue. Of course all we have now is just 3 tracks or so on Guitar Hero DLC.

Which makes me wonder is how we got those tracks for FREE in GH.

I'd pay 3 bucks easy for these following songs;

Rosalita
4th of July (Sandy)
Born to Run
Thunder Road
Jungleland

Are the Ion kits gonna be compatible with RB3? I am thinking about getting my dad a better drum kit since he pretty much wore out the one that came with the game, and it's really not that good to begin with.

re: Rock Band 3

Specific import details will be coming shortly (2-3 weeks?) but it's been hinted "It will be very similar with what we did with Rock Band 1.",hopefully that means songs will be deleteable and it was also implied not all songs made it. (Personally guessing at least Battery)

Also sounds like there'll be 2 seperate files with a normal one that has keys at the usual price and ones with pro mode for an increased price.

I'm hoping for pro keys to get in with the regular DLC download, and not lumped with the pro guitar/bass.

re: Rock Band 3

They still have to make the extra chart so it'd probably be in with the others though it does actually say "there may be an additional fee for Pro-charts (specifically Pro-guitar and Pro-bass)." so there's a chance.

Regular DLC = still $2 but includes keys and harmonies
Pro DLC = $4 (50 cents per chart)

Though that's gonna make the market place pretty messy. 8 files per 3 pack.

Yeah, I'm hoping HMX assumes that Pro keys might be easy enough (compared to pro guitar/bass charting) to just bundle it with the regular download, because everyone will already own the Pro instrument already.

I don't know that that makes any sense, but it's my logic and I'm sticking to it.

New blog post with deets about music library sorting and filtering options. Below is just PART of the article.

Rock Band 3 New Features: Music Library // The 'Zine // Rock Band®

http://www.rockband.com/zine/rb3-features-music-library

In designing the Music Library, our goal was to give players better control of how they navigate their songs, especially since there are so many downloadable songs available for the Rock Band platform at this point (2,000 by RB3 launch!). So we expanded the sorting options to include a few highly-requested sort types:

* Sort by Stars. You can now sort songs by the number of stars you've earned playing them. This makes it easy to separate the songs you've nailed from the ones you still need to practice.
* Sort by Leaderboard Rank. This sorts the songs by your leaderboard rank on each song's respective leaderboard, so you can see the songs on which you're globally competitive.
* Sort by Date Acquired. Here, you'll see your most recent song acquisitions, with the newest ones on top. It's very useful for quickly finding songs you've just downloaded from the Rock Band Music Store.
* Sort by Play Count. This sort separates the songs you most frequently play from those you rarely play.
* Sort by Review. This sort orders the song list according to the reviews you've specified for each song, which is a great way to quickly pick out your favorites. That's right, you can now set a review score of one to five "lighters" for each song! Keep reading for more info on how these reviews are used.
