Great article, and it reminded me of my own personal quest to do everything I could to get a couple of Less Than Jake songs into Rock Band. It took years (literally, I'd been trying since 2007) of bugging their drummer Vinnie every now and then (on twitter, at live shows) that he should look into it, especially after the band struck out on their own label which would obviously make the whole licensing thing a lot easier. I ended up getting somebody at HMX to meet up with them when Warped Tour stopped in Boston, and a few months later my dream finally came true and LTJ released two songs via Rock Band Network.

After it was all finally said and done, Vinnie sent me a message thanking me for cluing them in to the idea. I count it as easily the best interaction I've ever had with a band.

I'd be shocked if they weren't demoing the game with fully maxed out characters. Obviously they'll want to show what the game looks like at its craziest. I'm sure that at the start of the game, based on your stats and your gears, it will be much more difficult to effortlessly land a trick. But once your character is fully maxed out, it'll play like this where it seems almost impossible to bail. Also, the guys demoing the game have been playing it for over a year now. Of course they don't bail on tricks.
