I was playing it tonight too! *high fives*

We did a 4 Song Mystery Set and the fourth song was Green Grass and High Tides and it tore us up.  :lol

i'm not buying it because of all those reports of broken hardware. Even a local tv show review of it mentionned that they had problems with the drums breaking down. They had a second drum delivered by the pr dept and it died within 3-4 days.

Fuck this.

I got my replacement strat and it's working okay so far. I really don't like the strum bar. I can only down strum (learning how to alt strum), so I use the clicking to keep my rhythm...it's like my metronome. Without it a lot of the really repetitive (and boring) sections are just random stabbing in the dark. Blitzkrieg Bop on expert is something akin to me screaming at the TV for 3 minutes.

But EA was late on their 2 day delivery promise. I sent them an angry email demanding I get free games. Let's see if that materializes.

the second guitar we had was really weird. it would work half the time, and in order to strum you have to push the thing UP instead of down. This made for real uncomfortable play.

I love the new guitar, and I only downstrum.
