    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.

    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 :)

    Yeah.. we have to make a band! What will it be called?
    My current band is called BREAKERFALL... :lol: I have gold starred it a few times but its only a five star band at the moment. -- remember..I suck at shoulder to the plow and visions -- oh and shacklers revenge, the beginning of it is a nightmare for me .. :P

    *sorry for going off topic btw... :?
    I wish I could come to Chicago again! Damn school..and no money.
    I loved it there last time - I spent three weeks at my friends place (christmas/new year 07/08) :mrgreen:
