ya, the thing that sucks about these half the time is that its too late to add them.

Just snapped my rock band pedal in half tonight (for the 4th time) playing Once. No fixing it this time. I'll need to go get the rock band 2 kit.

I'd forgotten how awesome this album is until I listened to it again this week to see if I should download any of the songs. I actually bought the whole album and it's definitely one of the best song packs I've bought. I really like how the songs aren't impossible but they still provide decent challenge and are super fun to play (at least on drums, haven't tried the other instruments).

That's actually an extremely accurate description of the setting in which my pedal broke the first two times...

Not a big fan of Rock band 2. Prefer guitar hero WT.

Awesome dude though.
