Some friends are talking more about RockBand and looking forward to the new release of Rockband 2. I've been considering more lately finally hooking up the system to the game. I got the midi controller, now I need to order a board and do some soldering.
I'm a little afraid that I'll spend my time working on the game when I could be working on the instrument. But I also think it might help me learn songs more quickly. And there are a large list of songs in the game.
I think worst case I can learn to play the song without watching the lights, that would be the ultimate test to see whether I'm learning it or not.
The other thing is the frustrating part of playing the song exactly like it was recorded. That's not always the point of the drums. There is some improvisation, but then again maybe that's a cop out.
I definitely would like to learn a lot of the songs in either game. Playing with a virtual band could give me that motivation... I'm halfway there...
