My Xbox is screwed. Takes forever to get to the dash, won't connect to Live even though it says all connections are fine, I have to unplug/plug in the HDMI from the back of the console for the TV to register it's signal and no apps will boot. All this on the best week Rivals has had. 

 

Thanks Preview!! <_<

We're still in the 'Safe' zone this week with about 14 hours to go. I've played about 30 songs this morning to try and push us into the promotion, but I'm getting nowhere. I think all groups have gone mental this week because there's the entire library to choose from.

I've been doing the same, yet I still managed to pick a song that had already been played be someone in our crew and only got second play for it! (Boston's Peace of Mind)

 

Gotta love a bit of Boston ;)

That seems okay (though I don't know the Macklemore track), but why have they again included a song that has previously been a spotlight song?  I guess at least it's a good one this time.

 

I really enjoyed singing the Cake song this week, and have concluded it's a great cover version (it's weird they changed the swearing to 'uffing' rather than missing it out like they usually do)!  It was nice to do some (well, lots of) Pixies and Foo Fighters too.  I don't understand why Dave Grohl sings the word 'famine' so strangely though - did anyone else notice that?  Anyway, good luck everyone, and we'll probably be promoted again as we tend to go straight back up after each demotion!

You've gotta have at least one RB4/Rivals song on there for people without any DLC to have *something* to do.

I guess, but there are 65 songs to choose from!  I can't remember how long I've been playing, but I think it's something like twelve weeks..so for them to be repeating songs so soon just seems a bit lazy.

It also means Presidents of the United States of America are in, which is no bad thing!  However, I suspect this week will be mostly Foo Fighters for us, with a bit of Pearl Jam, Jimi Hendrix and Presidents thrown in.  And Alice in Chains and Soundgarden.

What a week to come back for! Congratulations of getting promoted (and commiserations on the demotion) in my absence.

Danger Zone! Sterling Archer Takes the Stage in Rock Band 4

 

The debonair, two-dimensional super spy takes the stage to belt — what else — Danger Zone.

 

 

Sterling Archer: secret agent turned private investigator turned… rock star? That’s right, this Thursday everyone’s favorite spy from “Archer,” the hit animated series on FXX, makes his long-awaited Rock Band debut as part of our March content update for Rock Band 4.

“That’s awesome! But why Archer?” you may ask. Well, I’ve got two words for you: “Danger Zone.”

When we received word that the Kenny Loggins mega-hit was coming to the Rock Band DLC Music Library, our thoughts immediately went to Archer. We’re big fans of the show. In fact, you could say that we like Archer as much as Archer likes, well, “Danger Zone”. So we reached out to the good folks at FXX and Floyd County Productions to see if they’d like to do something special for Rock Band and Archer fans and they jumped at the chance. An Archer cameo in Rock Band was happening.

For our art team, bringing Archer into Rock Band presented a unique challenge. The Archer TV show is cel-shaded, 2D animation – completely different from Rock Band’s signature 3D style. We experimented with a couple of different approaches for how Archer might look in Rock Band, including an Archer character in the traditional Rock Band style, but ultimately decided that the best approach was one that was true to the look and feel of the FXX series, so we created a custom cel-shader in Rock Band just for this character. The end result is an Archer that looks like he was pulled straight from TV and dropped on stage. We think he looks awesome – he almost pops off the screen!

So, who's playing this week?  I'm still holding out hope we can reach Bloodstone at some point!  That Recession song is a bit tricky though.  I'm glad there's loads of choice this week, though some bands have sneaked in on account of sounding like solo artists (Franz Ferdinand is a case in point!).

I'll try to contribute again this week since I've got 67 songs rather than the 20 I had last week. Will mostly be experience rather than spotlight though as I really suck at those.
