 Post subject: Eisley On Rock Band (attn: Boyd and Kimbertones)Posted: Thu Nov 19, 2009 10:03 am 
I am surprised no one has mentioned this before. But is Eisley thinking about doing this? http://creators.rockband.com/ Basically what it is is a tool that musicians can use to upload thier tracks to be sold and played on Rock Band video games. I would so buy every Eisley tune on Rock Band. Imagine Head Against The Sky or Many Funerals on Rock Band.

I would honestly buy Rock Band just for a few of their songs. Especially "Smarter." |

WB might have something to say about it. And what they will say is: no. _________________ EvilSpace |

That's what I'd say too. I'd much rather play Eisley songs (or anyone else's, for that matter) on my real guitar than a piece of plastic with buttons. _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

When rock band is done right, it is amazing. As you know I can play a real guitar, but it is still fun to play rock band too _________________ Wil's excellent description of me. wilsmith wrote: You're the Anti-Censorship+Topless Twitpic Parodying+Youth Group Video Directing guy that's a champion for the 1st amendment, Videogames as Art, and unrepentant file sharing...

The Rock Band Network is intended more for unsigned bands or independent labels. Besides, Harmonix and Warner have been having a bit of a feud over licensing costs lately, so there's that roadblock too. _________________ Do I even need a signature anymore? |

I like the Beatles about as much as I like the concept of Rock Band. It took me a while to get into it (though I'm more of a Guitar Hero fan,) and I thought it was pointless to play a fake guitar, too. But it's pretty engaging once you get into the swing of things. And it's a good musical tool, too, if you think of it as a rhythm exercise. My time has gotten a lot better. |

Sorry to bump such an old thread, but I'm bumping this now because it's been a few months since the Rock Band Network launched and it's been a pretty big success so far. Also, now that the band have left WB, it might be possible to get some stuff up. Plus, in a few months Rock Band 3 will be coming out, and it supports keyboard and harmonies, so once that happens, it would be a pretty good opportunity (IMO) for the band. _________________ Do I even need a signature anymore? |

Me and my buddy Jonathan are tentatively planning on Teaming up to do something. I tried to get him connect with Playbackstl.com where I contribute ( they don't pay, but CAN get you comped tickets and promos of albums [now done via secure download mostly]) ahead of releases. They were slow to respond, we got frustrated, and we're going to do our own sometime soon, cause he's a great writer ( was going to write for Alternative press about 8 years ago but got hit by a bus, for real ). I have up till this point taken a "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything" approach to criticism, against my better judgment, and have been trying to reel in other people to be a Counterpoint, and debate the merits of the music. That will be one of the things Unique to whatever blog/ site gets put together. So yeah, you got the gig if you want it. Maybe you can pad the portfolio and make some good connections for your Camp, Playbackstl is a good jumping off point to push that along for sure. _________________ yup, that's my name.
