He's far more rock than country. I'd try a few of them out.

Good news. Maybe I'll finally get my dad to play at our next family gathering. Hehe, probably not.

I know that the article is calling Orbison a country singer because the DLC announcement came from CMT, but I'd call him a rocker first and foremost. He may have had rockabilly roots but but this is actually the first time I've ever heard anyone label him a country singer.

I somehow doubt that Roy will be bringing anything to Rock Band... given that he's dead.

His label may, though...

Hard to believe he passed away more than 20 years ago. He passed away way too young.

It's blasphemous but I'll say it... country is the new rock. When you look at bands like Big and Rich or whoever and compare the to Fall Out Boy, Good Charlotte, Nickelback, or f'ing Hinder it's pretty easy to see who the rock legacy is being carried on by. And who else besides CMT would make a music announcement? MTV is all fake dramas and occasionally a bit of rap now and then.

Rock is dead.

Orbison is awesome, and definitely rocks.

Rock is dead?

Have you heard of The Strokes, Muse and other upcoming rock talent.

The only thing that is dead is your thinking, my friend.

@Marky Mark...

Muse, really? Swear to God I pulled them up on YouTube and the first song I found (displayed proudly on their official YouTube page) was Starlight. Falsetto singing over piano. Rockin'!

If rock lives and that's what it has come to, then kill it with fire, now!

/The Stokes are great though. I like rock and am not a big country fan - but the good time rock attitude has definitely gone. Most acts these days seem like a bad parody of the old grunge acts, all whiny and wimpy and no fun at all.

I would consider Roy to be more Rock than Country, but hey...we all have our roots. The bottom line is that this freakin ROCKS and Roy Orbison is the man. I bought em all.
