Finally Weezer - Pork and Beans. this one should have been released way back when the weezer pack came out.

think that's all I'll be getting this week.

[divinechaos]

FUCK. YES. About time they got more Kiss and the Weezer and Blink are awesome too.

Agreed. Just when I thought I was finally putting this game away I am going to need more tracks. Shit.

[Cupelix]

Undone! Yes! Don't recognize Pork and Beans, but I'll grab it to have the whole pack.

Undone! Yes! Don't recognize Pork and Beans, but I'll grab it to have the whole pack.

It is the single off their newest album.

[Suave Peanut]

I will get both the blink-182 and Weezer packs.

Why are people excited about the fucking Pork and Beans song when we're getting My Name Is Jonas and Undone? Pork and Beans can't lick the boots of the Blue Album.

Carry me
like you are my brother.
Love me like a mother.
Would you be there?

Holy CRAP - I was JUST THINKING that Damone's 'Out Here All Night' would be a fun RB song. Hell yes.

[Nameless]

My Name Is Jonas was my favourite song in GH3. Now that it's in Rock Band, I can finally stop popping in GH3 to play it.

Rock Band is really becoming the music platform that I was hoping it would become. I just hope that they continue this trend of awesome with less announcements like LEGO Rock Band.

PS: Moar Flight of the Conchords plz, kthxbye.

[MosBen]

Man, there hasn't been anything coming out for Rock Band that's interested me in a loooooong time. I used to play that thing all the damn time, but it's collecting dust lately...

P.S. And I still think .38 Special's "Hold On Loosely" was writted to be in a rhythm based video game.

It has been! It was in Guitar Hero Rocks the 80s. It was definitely one of the better songs in the game. Hopefully it does come out in Rock Band, though...

Also: Some version of Radar Love.

My Name Is Jonas was my favourite song in GH3. Now that it's in Rock Band, I can finally stop popping in GH3 to play it.

It wasn't my favourite (that would probably be "One" or "Paint It Black"), it was a lot of fun to play on the higher difficulties. I may have to listen to some Weezer to find out if I like these songs enough to justify getting them.

Also: Some version of Radar Love.

This. A thousand times, this. There's that one drum bit in there that I just love that would be amazing to play in RB.

[crazyD]

I'll be grabbing My Name is Jonas and Undone. Not a fan of Pork and Beans, so I won't be getting the pack.

PS: Moar Flight of the Conchords plz, kthxbye.

Is there any now?

[Nameless]

Is there any now?

No, which is precisely the problem. :D

Agreed .

[Suave Peanut]

Flight of the Conchords' second album drops pretty soon. Perhaps a tie-in?

They're on Sub Pop, so they'll at least be on the Rock Band Network. From here (http://www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/content_display/industry/e3i4d0b1b4303c83997ea8bf1f3ea673d95):Sub Pop Records head of A&R Tony Kiewel says the label is expecting to submit songs from its upcoming fall releases as well as its bigger releases from the past two years.

[MosBen]

Nameless: Yeah, Radar Love would be a good one. Also, I know it was on the 80s game, but A) I never owned a PS2, so I never really played that game, and B) The drum parts and vocals are also, like the guitar and bass parts, hard enough to scale well in difficulty levels but still sound like they'd be totally fun to play.

My exact sentiments. I do believe My Name Is Jonas is my favorite Weezer song of all time, so this is excellent news.

I had GH3 on PS2, and it turns out that it was stupid. In fact, that game made me decided not to ever play a GH game again, since it was WAY too sensitive. I double-strum when I play, and it would often read an extra strum when I did so because of the strum bar bounce. So a song like One, I could barely play on Expert, and that really bothered me, because it is awesome.

Thankfully, there was no problem with hammer-ons/pull-offs, so I could play My Name Is Jonas perfectly well. :D

True, I'd love to see it again! It is a great song! The fact that Round and Round was in RB2 gives me hope we'll see it again.

I would be so happy to see this. Motha'uckas would be brilliant to play in RB! Also, Bowie would be fantastic.

I read you loud and clear man.

The main thing holding me back right now is fast strumming with the rhythm of the song, which pretty much fucks me for metal on Hard and Expert. One of these days, I'll spend a couple of hours forcing myself to master the last three minutes of "One", because I can play the first five almost perfectly on Hard.
