X3F Defense Force needs your questions for Harmonix

Where's Led Zeppelin?
Make it happen!

"What was the problem with moving pictures and are there any plans to change/impliment a system to allow a full band to play instrumental songs?"

MANY people want to know this.

When are we getting the 20 additional songs we paid for with the RB2 disc purchase? Why is HMX releasing new content to the marketplace if the music people have already paid for isn't ready?

When are the developers & in-house moderators going to spend some time answering questions on the Rock Band Forums, instead of coming to other websites to offers answers that their very loyal fans have been asking for MONTHS?

Hey Harmonix, Lewis here, I own Rock band 1 and I just want to know how can one artist get their material into the game as downloadable content? What is the process? Does Harmonix, EA And/Or MTV need to approve what goes on the game? Or do you add anyone that offers? This always struck me because I see most artists are MTV-Friendly. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Oh and P.S. PLEASE ASK DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN for their songs! Or Incubus! Thanks again.

Well, seeing as you guys are very close knit to Roadrunner specifically do you intend on releasing more song from bands on Roadrunner such as Porcupine Tree, Opeth, Dream Theater, Nightwish and Machine Head?

Another one, was "Jukebox Mode" left out specifically for the reason players can now make it one their own using specific cheats?

I probably won't get the answer that I want, but do you plan on having a large number of albums released every year?

Have you also thought of releasing a Band's entire catalog?

I know the Rock Band Japanese edition is in production by Q Entertainment. Whenever it does come out, will content like Jrock and Jpop be available in the USA? Japanese music is pretty popular in the USA, even if it isn't on MTV or radio stations. I'm attending a near sold-out Dir en Grey show, so that should say something.

Regarding the 20 free downloads, are they from artists new to Rock Band or are they from artists like Foo Fighters and Nirvana that have their songs in the game? Personally I'd love to see some Deftones, Chevelle and Underoath in Rock Band.

Okay, we'll try this again, since this time I'm not on my mobile.

Will there be a bigger attempt at making DLC that is more region based with the advent of Rock Band 2? For example, more Tragically Hip, or Our Lady Peace songs for Canada perhaps? Hint, hint.

All I have to ask is, Where are my Weird Al tracks?

why the delayed bundle for the 360? Since all the peripherals are out there, what was the decision behind the choice?

Guys please get all your questions in before Wednesday, any questions after Wednesday most likely won't be taken. I'm not saying 100% they won't be but we would like Wednesday to be the deadline. Thanks guys!

I see Guitar Hero:World Tour managed to get Tool on their artist list. Is there any amount of ass kissing that can be done to get them onto Rock Band 2, or should I just trade my copy in now?

1- With all the beta testing, how is it possible that there's still broken talkies in RB2 ??? seriously, nobody noticed before the game was released that broken part in the Blondie's song One Way or Another ?

2- The leaderboards. At least the vocalist's. A player has more points than it would ever be possible. Didn't noticed for myself, but some vocalists told me that their score never improve, even many weeks after they did the score.

3- Overdrive windows standardisation for vocalists (everybody guessed at this point that i'm a vocalist...). Either you can activate at the VERY last moment, or u have to activate 2 sec. before the window ends. This problem was present in RB1 and haven't been fixed in RB2.

The real question is why do you guys hate vocalists so much ? ;)

Seriously, are u gonna do something about the bugs ? soon ? please ?

One last thing. Awesomeness detection code. You have to reveal to world what it does. Now. Please.

1. AC/DC's Live at Boddington track pack will be a disc-bound special available at Wal-Mart. Should we anticipate more such disc-bound track packs in the future? What was HMX's reason for taking that path when DLC has to date been their method of releasing new content between games?

2. I'm thrilled to be rocking the Moving Pictures album, finally. Now that it's out, can you reveal the reason for its last-minute delay?

3. What kind of music would you (meaning Sean) personally like to see more of in RB?

4. What was the hardest DLC deal to negotiate with a band/record company? What made it tough?

5. Led Zeppelin's members apparently feel that licensing their songs to a music game is risky (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB121487474239618065.html), and some have pointed -- erroneously or not -- to the loss of the Who's Next masters as evidence of the risk. Is there any real risk to musicians when their work is suggested for inclusion in Rock Band?

6. What was the *worst* set of masters your team has had to deal with? Moldy, degraded, shredded by cats, etc.? How did you salvage the stuff?
