The pack is rounded out by “Thnks fr th Mmrs” the smash hit from the band’s platinum follow-up, Infinity on High.
Joining this Fall Out Boy 3-pack is an amazing single from Deep Purple, Child in Time. The hard rock pioneers are best known to Rock Band fans as the band behind “Highway Star”, the standout Rock Band track that also underscored the first Rock Band disc’s cinematic.

Child In Time, awesome!
It will certainly be epic on pretty much everything, although Roger Glover's bass work on it isn't nearly as psycho as Ritchie's guitar or Jon Lord's keyboard parts.
Hmm...all the previous Deep Purple songs have been off of Machine Head, now they have something off In Rock. Here's hoping we get some more going forward, I'd presonally love to have Flight of the Rat, Speed King, Lazy, or Pictures of Home make their way to Rock Band.

Shutz wins 1 internet point for guessing it right.
We all lose for the FOB pack, though.
YES! I called Child In Time!
Now, who do I contact about my prize?
Kind of compensates for that time I called Hey Jude for the final track in Beatles: Rock Band, and didn't get it. I mean, The End makes sense, from a logical standpoint, but Hey Jude is probably the most glaring omission in Beatles Rock Band.

Don't blame yourself. We were all led on by one man: Kor
Pro guitar has been ordered. The excitement hasn't hit me yet. I've not played a string instrument since highschool.
You're in for a treat. It may be a long, slow climb, but every step is a ton of fun.

Hate if you want, but Fallout Boy tends to have fun drum charts.
So I'll at least be watching videos to see...
There's a local band that plays Sugar, We're Goin' Down and I've been wishing that was in the game ever since I started playing around with the drums and started paying attention to what the drummer was doing so, yeah, fuck the haters
Uggh fallout boy. I'm going to have nightmares of that old dead on arrival drum chart. Fail, fail, fail, fail. Man that was tonight to get the hand foot separation going.
Picked up a Beatles band kit yesterday ($29.99 at Toys r Us BTW) to retire some of my Band Hero equipment and replace my mic stand that got broke in a recent move. Love it - the guitar is amazing looking - but I kind of miss cymbals. How is the 3 cymbal pack? I see reviews that it can be tricky to install and a bit on the over sensitive side - any one with experience with them?
Yup - all band kits are $29.99 and all guitar/dj hero sets are 9.99 this week. I originally went in to get DJ Hero 2 and a Guitar Hero WOR guitar but when I spotted the Beatles kit I couldn't resist and got that instead.
I just was going to get gh6 for the guitar. I was using a pair of GH5 guitars but one of them has a wonky orange but
ton so I was going to replace it and trade in the game that comes with it. Finding the full Beatles kit was awesome but sounds like I may hold off on cymbals given the amazon reviews I've seen.

Yeah. I knew about the GH thing. Need to replace my GH3 guitar so that I can maybe possibly actually 'beat' that game. But $30 for a drum kit? Man, that's sorely tempting. The kind of tempting that I can't strictly afford, but man...

Yay for Deep Purple though.

The PS3 one is going for $83.
EDIT: Fuck it, I'm going for it guys.
I had no idea they'd added that functionality, pretty dang cool
Hex-pickup strat would still be better for that though

Sign on to Live. Start up RB3. You have friends playing this game. Press guide button. "PrimusD is playing Expert Drums on "Dance, Dance".
Send message: "LOL".
Whatever happened to us playing Rock Band together, man? You used to sing all the girly pop songs while I drummed.

No homo.
What?! Fyre, I am appalled! I thought you only played Rock Band with Bees!

I'll gladly join in on some hot group action, especially because I still need the half a mill and million point achievement.s
It should also be noted that I'll happily offer my vocal chords up as a sacrifice on the Queen, Yes, and up coming Child In Time DLC.
Look for me online sometime Sunday night or later this week.

It's one of my favorite song to drum now.
Shit! I guess I'll have to look into that.

I bought the original 2 pack during RB2 with one good one and one bad one. I stopped trying to use them cause they were LOUD.
Then I bought the newer Mad Catz ones, a 3 pack. This one had 2 good ones and one bad one.
So I am using the 1 good (loud) one from the original set as my green and the 2 good new ones for the other two.
ton so I was going to replace it and trade in the game that comes with it. Finding the full Beatles kit was awesome but sounds like I may hold off on cymbals given the amazon reviews I've seen.
I have 549 Rock Band Drum and 305 Pro Drum FC's
