Rock out with your block out was pretty obvious, to be fair. Â I can’t make up my mind how I feel about this. Â On the one hand, the concept I find to be pretty stupid, but then I don’t have kids. Â But I’d kill to have two or three of the songs on that brief preview list available in the full game (Kung Fu Fighting and Song 2 if you’re wondering).

Domo arigato, Harmonix
Harmonix announces that next week’s downloadable content for Rock Band will include a 7-song pack of REO Speedwagon and Styx.
Jesus, if they’d only mix in some Van Halen, I could recreate the Texxas Jam in my living room. Â I’m regressing back to my youth in the best possible way.
Update: The Texxas Living Room Jam playlist from the songs available for the game:
“More Than A Feeling” – Boston (Texxas Jam, 1979)
“(Don’t Fear) the Reaper” – Blue Öyster Cult  (Jam, 1979)
“The Trees” – Rush (Jam, 1979)
“Hello There” – Cheap Trick (Jam, 1980)
“Roll with the Changes” – REO Speedwagon (Jam, 1981)
“Any Way You Want It” – Journey (Jam, 1982)
“Bad Reputation” – Joan Jett (Jam, 1982)
“Renegade” – Styx (Jam, 1983)
“War Pigs” – Black Sabbath (technically not a Jam band, but Ozzy performed in 1984)
“Highway Star” – Deep Purple (Jam, 1985)Â
“Living on a Prayer” – Bon Jovi (Jam, 1985)
Why yes, I did in fact only pick songs for the bands that would have been released concurrent with or prior to their Jam appearance. Â Well, almost…Bon Jovi’s appearance predates Slippery When Wet by a year.
What?
