FINALLY.
Though I will skip this one, you'd better believe I'll be right there when "Who's next" drops.

Dude, if you actually read the post on Rock Band forums you'll realize Fanboy is being misleading. They officially announced the first three albums and said that information about "Who's Next" will be coming soon, effectively putting it back in the "rumored" bin.

Not true Gary. I have read it on the official site as well. It says those albums are coming soon. They wouldn't announce that if it wasn't in the works. Therefore it's not a "rumor" it's an announcement of a future release.
I'm getting excited about the pixies.

Will this be insanely difficult to play, like all other metal songs in Rock Band?

I'm sorry, but I could care less about all this '80's music.

Here here. It's great and all that they're getting new content, but how about more music from THIS CENTURY, from artists have only released this century. Yes, I know Motley Crue is new, but it's still Motley Crue.

FYI I don't know if this is across the board, but the 360 rock band bundle pack sells for 120 at walmart near my house. I have seen it at that price for months. They sell out, get more in, and the price does not change so if you are on the fence, 120 should sway you in the right direction.

Really, more bands should exploit this as a chance to promote their own music. Just like iTUNES revolutionised the top 40 chart, this could well be the next step forward for bands wanting to attract more fanbase!
I'm SO glad Harmonix are doing this, (Activision, take note!!). The introduction of album downloads is a sheer brilliance, and can keep a franchise fresh for as long as they continue to support the movement.
Just a shame I'm gonna be holding off on a Rock Band purchase for a while yet ... damn that VAT, eh? :P

Hey, that's me. Thanks for the recog. I'm glad Hmx is finally starting to push albums.
In Kotaku's QA with HMX, they mention it is possible we will see a full artist's catalogue.
Ctrl C'd and Ctrl V'd for your pleasure....
What happened to The Who?
We will have a specific announcement about that coming up soon regarding some work that we have coming down the pike with The Who in general that I think people are gonna be pretty happy about...and in general what you're gonna see sorta deep dives with particular artists, where with some artists...of the appropriate stature, you'll see us doing more than whole albums, potentially even entire catalogs.

A Pixies announcement? X3F, you made my day.
At least three songs on that record are the best song in the world.
