I would have bought that Spoon pack, if they released it a year ago. I haven't really had any desire to play Rock Band ever since they stopped supporting Beatles DLC.

Yeah I stopped playing for a while too until the Pantera pack came out. Got me back into it. Beatles DLC would be nice though.

You should go and talk to The Beatles for requiring so much money to release the songs and go and talk to all the fans for not buying enough copies of the albums. Harmonix can't spend the time and money it requires to make Beatles DLC if not enough people buy it.

I'm sure Greenday will get tons of DLC though.

Green Day isn't compatible for DLC outside of the 6 available due to the way they did the animations

and Dante. Harmonix has said that The Beatles DLC is among their highest selling

3 minutes in

More is coming once everything settles down with Green Day and Rock Band 3

There hasn't been anything thats caught my eye in a while, but I will never complain about RB DLC ever again, not after they gave us Rust in Peace.

Gonna buy Alive

hell, where's 'the way we get by'? that was pretty much their breakout song.

"For the very first time. And I think I can fly."

wish there were some songs off 'girls can tell,' but not a bad smattering of spoon.

Me too. Something like "Me and the Bean" or "Chicago at Night," but I'm not going to complain about any Spoon in my Rock Band.

I'd prefer that too, especially considering every album after that one has been a copy of "Girls Can Tell" with diminishing returns.

Yeah! Spoon! Needs some "Sister Jack" or "The Government Darling" though!

Sweet Spoon!

P.O.D.? About freaking time --

though it's a shame that they're only releasing one song to RB. They have 6-7 albums released to date.

ya love this band and would love to see more on RB, and while i am at it more Korn and loads of TOOL and where the Fvck is placebo?????? that band would rock on RB

Would love to see Placebo!

While 'I Turn My Camera On' and 'Don't You Evah' are both classics and while they both deserve their place in the game, 'Got Nuffin' and 'Trouble Comes Running' are both a bit faster and probably more exciting as far as this Rock Band goes.

I have a feeling those two might get overlooked in light of the two Spoon classics on the list.

hehe, "Gimmie Fiction" and "Ga Ga Ga Ga" are already considered 'classic' albums?
I would think material from and before "Girls Can Tell' (and maybe 'Kill the Moonlight') would be their classics.

Classics are born the day they're released, mywhitenoise ;-)

And yeah, Transference aside, all of Spoon's albums are pretty rewarding with each listen. Those albums still stand out regardless of their age and have some solid tracks.

I'm not going to lie, I have yet to purchase anything before Fiction but I say those two are classic in the sense that neither of them are new and both of them are fantastic.

Transference is pretty awesome.

I'm psyched for the Spoon as well, been awhile since they had something I was interested. I would've thought Fitted Shirt would've been perfect for Rock Band though.

You really can't go wrong with Fitted Shirt. Now I hope we get something from The National.

I home I'm not the only one who thought that the picture was of Dominic Monaghan as Charlie Pace.

Speaking of, why isn't "You All Everybody" on Rock Band?

HELL YEAH!

@ Freddie Mercury
I think he means that the game will get Green Day DLC, like the way Beatles has Beatles only DLC. but this news was posted in April stating no DLC at all for Green Day rock band...
http://www.joystiq.com/2010/04/12/no-dlc-for-green-day-rock-band/

POD in Rockband? Finally hopefully they add more songs from Fundamental Elements of South, Satellite, Self-titled, Testify, and When Angels and Seperants Dance.

Spoon! WooHoo!
Too bad it's not 30 Gallon Tank and Nefarious, though.

Who the hell is Spoon?
