I am pretty sure I can see the panties of that chicks setting down.
How tasteless.

（　ﾟДﾟ）

@Robborboy *that chick sitting*

What a long day this has been.

@Robborboy What're you, Japanese?

@Scnew No, if he were Japanese, he would probably enjoy it.

Ha ha, national stereotypes.

Lukewarm about the Weezer tracks, never been a big fan of them. But Me and Bobby McGee is a song that I've been waiting forever for, definitely can't wait to play it.

@libregkd

Don't blame you. You can't get much worse than those Weezer songs. Such a fall from 90's grace it makes me sad. Give us The Blue Album and Pinkerton, actual good Weezer.

@D3m0sthenes

Agreed. Pinkerton is my favorite. Amazing album.

Pinkerton is by far my favorite also. The Blue Album is great, too. But as far as albums after that go, I think a decent portion of the Green Album is good - Hash Pipe and Island in the Sun are good stuff to me. As for nearly everything else after that album, I can't really dig it :-/

@darkinchworm Wow. I feel bad for all of you. I LOVE perfect situation and have been dying for it to launch on Rock Band. I only wish it had the pro upgrade as well.

To each their own, and yay for me.

Are these only for RB3? Because I have all of the other 3 Weezer packs for RB1, and would very much like these songs as well..

@jackdan594

All songs released after 10/26/2010 (with the exception of Country Track Pack 2) are RB3 only. It's not going to change.

@jackdan594 As @edisinsane said, it'll be RB3 compatible only. In case you don't know, the price for RB3 is $19.99 and you might even be able to find it a bit cheaper than that. Figuring that it has 83 songs, that's less than 25 cents a song.

More Janis, hell yeah!

Screw this we need some metal! Better yet some Slipknot!

@SlipknotFan Slipknot sucks now. Even their last album was far below average and was a terrible album. Adding another Janis song is exactly what RB needed, but they desperately need more Joplin. Joplin destroys slipknot!

We need some more Slipknot dlc.. I can't express that enough.
