    The new Eagles of Death Metal album comes out on the 28th. I expect DLC on that day Harmonix!

    I'm thinking about preordering the album for an autographed digipack. I don't even know what a digipack is. Sounds like it's worth it though.

    I hopped on Score Duel to see how the environment was and I get matched up with Mr. PlaysSoloAllDayLong with a TrueSkill rating of 39 who beats me twice, both times because it was DLC I haven't really done much recently (Inside the Fire and Under the Bridge).

    On one hand I was kind of bitter at losing (had I not fumbled up, I probably would have beat him once) but on the other hand I was glad that I don't get many chances to play solo.

    Anyway, I'm fixing my phone for a bit. I'm free for a couple of hours if anyone needs a singer, just throw me an invite.

    My first and so far only non-tour online experience went as such:
    Tug o War, guitar.
    I pick a random song and it's Dinosuar Jr. I don't know it so I go hard. Other guy goes expert. I beat him but not by much (kinda expected due to lower difficulty but I had NEVER played the song before). Achievement unlocked.

    Deciding weather or not to leave while on top or do a best outta three set, guy picks random and we get "Let There Be Rock" and seeing as how I know this, we both go on expert. We stumble through the first solo but I pick it up a bit during the chord sections and get a streak going. Before the second solo, the guy quits.

    So make a picture.
    Click Make Merch.
    Click poster.

    LOOK AT ALL THOSE OPTIONS!

    You can add your OWN custom artwork, re-position all text and fonts, change colors...

    I'm going to work on my own band name logo in Photoshop, so that when this thing is ready to roll I have the most professional looking poster ever. This is scary.

    In 2003, the Offspring announced that their new album would be called Chinese Democracy (You Snooze, You Lose). The world, and especially the lawyers, calmed down when they realized the date was April 1.

    One of the better pieces of info I've found while browsing through the song library.

    So after having played the crap out of this weeks stuff. Man, is any other guitarist here hurting from Push it?

    Something about the frequent chord changes had my hand cramping up something fierce. I actually had to break my combo just to rest for a couple seconds.

    Nice choice for a background for the Firefly crew there, Tog.

    I especially like that River is either about to kick Reaver ass while everybody stands around posing OR she's just flipping out and everybody is used to it by now. Simon is just watching though (there wasn't any "Oh god, be careful!" pose, I take it) and Mal doesn't look smug enough. In fact, is he flipping me off?

    For higher res:

    Go to picture, click on desired picture

    Click "Make Merch"

    Go up to address bar and you'll see something like this:

    http://www.rockbandstore.com/index.php?v=rbs2_custom_band&bandname=The%20BANGARANGS&bandphoto=

    Highlight the bolded part

    Copy, paste that address for the URL

    Not unlocked, you must play once in each of them.

    There are 2 achievements. One that says available and one that says played in all of them.

    Are you thinking of this:

    Worldwide Sensation Gain the ability to play around the world 25

    That comes after obtaining the publicist or whatever it is. Its after roadies which is after getting a Jet.

    I like White Wedding, but it's a pain in the ass to sing for me. Most of the song is low enough that I can't sing in my normal register and hit it, and when I do go falsetto on it I can't seem to find the notes all that well in the verses (I can do the chorus okay).

    The trick is to not falsetto at all.

    In case it hasn't been mentioned:
    As far as characters showing up wearing previously worn outfits, it should be noted that its not enough to just change your characters outfit in the Rock Shop, you need to pass a checkpoint of some kind that will prompt the "Connecting to Rock Central" message to come up. That is when your characters outfit data is transmitted to our servers.
