I think there will be a party going on in NYC if you can make it there But we'd love to have you back to Chicago!

Just a heads up. For any downloaded Rock Band songs to work your 360 has to be actively connected to XBox Live. That might be hard to do at the bar. When I brought my 360 and all the Rock Band stuff to a friends Super Bowl party I found that out the hard way. Only the songs that came with the game worked. It listed the downloaded tracks but would not play them. I think its a copyright thing.

JD3347

Hi,

I seen that there is 11 fans confirmed for the party....I know Chicago area has a lot of Pearl Jam fans...Show your love for the band and support some great causes....Plus, will be some great donations that will be up to win..Good Times!!!

Yep! The Ashland is actually a bar that does RockBand tournaments and stuff on a regular basis and have XBox live accounts. I'm also bringing my 360 hard drive, stage kit & XBox Live login so we'll have access to my DLC (and PJ avatars!) as well. So there should be no worries, but thanks for the reminder to re-confirm w/the bar

Here's my Stone avatar:

I have a band named Rearviewmirror... I like Breakerfall as a band name. Cool idea!

demetrios

The name I had for a few months, which I couldn't use online, was pretty much x-rated. lol

allstar340

I'm amazing at Rockband and Guitar Hero :P But then again, I'm only 16 so I guess it's kinda in my blood. I've won a few competitions at my school even
Wish I lived in Chicago

finnannie

How cool would it be to play Rock Band with one of the guys? ( hint... xbox-live!)

I wanna play tug of war with Jeff on expert bass!! :ugeek: :twisted:

I have to agree, but in this economic downturn, I can't justify that type of trip to play Rock Band. If you can get any member of PJ there to play some, I would definitely consider it.
