I requested... several Protomen songs on their survey. Thanks for listening Harmonix!
This was the first article I saw on RB4 today: https://www.polygon.com/2015/8/24/9197735/rock-band-4-instrument-compatibility-last-gen-xbox-one-adapter-ps4
No surprise there, I knew that the Xbone would need an adapter of some sort. The article casually dropped that Cake's "Short Skirt/Long Jacket" was in, which is also a song and band I've wanted in Rock Band forever. Scroll through, read the rest of the article, scan the list of the other songs announced today... and then I saw "Light Up the Night" and ran to my computer to make sure that you guys were on top of it.
That is super exciting! I hope they come back to Chicago sometime soon. I missed the last chance I had to seem them, and I Fight Dragons, because of work stuff and I vow to never let that happen again
When I was young, couldn't stand to believe it
Somewhere there was a sun left to shine
Now my heart won't be still 'til I've seen it
It won't be still 'til I've made it mine
There's a fear, can't be seen, it surrounds me
As afraid of the dark as the light
Was a time, long ago, these were safe streets
Now I'm the only one that keeps me alive
Keep me alive
But I know a hero will come
There's a face that I've seen in the windows
There's the face of a stronger man
When I turn, as a leaf when the wind blows
Gone away is the will in his hand
You've been fed what they wanted to feed you
You've been bled of the will to survive
Now you stand just as long as they need you
But you're the only one that keeps you alive
Keep you alive
But I know a hero will come
And the night, the night will be torn apart
And I know we won't fight alone
And the spark that we carry will turn the dark into
A flame, a fire, a light
THERE MUST BE AN END TO THE DARKNESS
NO ONE WILL COME, THIS CITY IS DEAD
But all of your heroes are gone
And the blood that they spilled is on my hands
A darkness will block out the sun
Not a thing can be done with so few men
That a hero couldn't do
When the voice from the shadows calls you
When the wind whips past your ears
Will you stand when the weight is upon you
Or will you go to your knees in fear?
There's a chance, though I know it's a long shot
And the city is out of time
All for naught if your heart stops beating
'Cause you're the only one that keeps you alive
God, keep it alive
But I know a hero will come And all of your heroes are gone
Someone's got to No one left to
[together] Bring back the light
And I know we won't fight alone A darkness will block out the sun if we can't
[together] Find a way to hold back the night
WE CAN HOLD OUT THROUGH THIS ENDLESS DARK
ALL A FIRE NEEDS IS A SINGLE SPARK
I think this one is pretty clearly Dr. Light and the AI simulation of the dead Emily that is his only companion now

Panther kills it of course, but man is it weird for them to do The Hounds without Turbo Lover.
Also I think this show may have been the only time I have been jealous of another man's beard.
Edit: also I definitely did some damage to my hearing as I forgot my badass earplugs at home and had to get disposable ear plugs at sidewinder for a buck.

Well, it did stop
Along with your ability to hear that frequency ever again.
Edit:
My first Protomen concert was a similar experience, I was way close to a speaker stack and I basically couldn't hear out of my left ear for quite a while after the show plus tinnitus later.

Either way I'd rather not tempt fate.
Also I forgot to mention but there was a dude with a full on Char helmet+ mask combo. I couldn't see his clothes well enough to see if he was rocking the full uniform though.

Harmonix is a cool company

So if you're going to PAX, know this is a possibility
Reanimator only got an 88% on expert, but to be fair, that's not him playing the drums on the recorded version.
You stole that from my Facebook, didn't you @Grey Ghost
Just before the blinding light
The world was standing there before you
Just out of sight
You feel the thunder start to move you
You feel your pulse begin to rise
The night's a shock that cuts right through you
And you come alive
This city made us
This city gave us life
It was a crash that broke the silence
A thousand voices called my name
And like a moth into the fire
I had to find the flame
This city made us
This city ate us alive
This city now
Will fade away
It's crying out
I know you think you can control it
I've seen the way a crowd can turn
You've given everything you've got
And still they want to watch it burn
This city now
Will fade away
It's crying out
It's much too late
They set the fire
Let 'em fan the flame
I'll give you one more word of wisdom
When you stand and face the gates of hell
You're on your own
You're all you've got
Our heroes fail us
Without the veil of night
This city now
Will fade away
It's crying out
It's much too late
This city now
Won't last the night
Don't let it die
Without a fight
This city now
Will fade away
THIS CITY MADE US
NO ONE CAN SAVE US NOW
The single doesn't have the full liner notes but I think it's pretty clear this is Mega Man speaking
Somewhere there was a sun left to shine
Now my heart won't be still 'til I've seen it
It won't be still 'til I've made it mine

Now I'm the only one that keeps me alive
Keep me alive

Keep you alive
But I know a hero will come

A flame, a fire, a light

That was a joke
I went to see them live for the first time last night and it was FUCKING COOOOOOOOOOOL
I also had an adventure finding the venue and ate at a Quizno's across from a police station, so that was super fun
I made this thread 7 years ago.
Without a fight?
Holy Jesus you did
I... need to go sit down
That is 1/4th of my life ago
Its never coming out, Graham
I hope they finish it soon. The covers are cool and all but their original stuff is why I love em.
Chinese Democracy
Protomen Act III
the F word is dropped like 10 times casually
FORUM TIME CAPSULE
I assumed this meant fuck
but
nope
This thread has made me aware of my place in time like no thread here has
And for that, I hate it
I STILL BELIEVE
stop playing games with my heart
Also I think this show may have been the only time I have been jealous of another man's beard.
Edit: also I definitely did some damage to my hearing as I forgot my badass earplugs at home and had to get disposable ear plugs at sidewinder for a buck.

I was honestly worried it was never going to stop
Along with your ability to hear that frequency ever again.
Edit:
My first Protomen concert was a similar experience, I was way close to a speaker stack and I basically couldn't hear out of my left ear for quite a while after the show plus tinnitus later.

Also also I can still hear the Protomen just fine, so
Also I forgot to mention but there was a dude with a full on Char helmet+ mask combo. I couldn't see his clothes well enough to see if he was rocking the full uniform though.

Man, I so want to go to the Cleveland show, but it's on a Monday.
