    Ok guys, last RB2 DLC, and they're going out on a high note!  Too bad that this stuff won't have pro guitars or keys (at least not for awhile).  I doubt that I'll pick these up any time soon, figuring that I'll save my points for RB3 DLC, but there are some great songs here.  Bleed American, Dead & Bloated, Creep, and Trippin' on a Hole are all personal favorites of mine.   
     
    From here on out, DLC will be announced in the RB3 forums (even though we know next week is The Doors), and added to that game's DLC page.

    Jimmy Eat World stuff is good. They really should just put out all of Bleed American.

    Many people will remember Trippin' on a Hole in a Paper Heart being in Guitar Hero 2 (in cover form). Brings back some good memories :)
     
    Stone Temple Pilots? Eff. I could not be happier. While I would have liked more songs Purple and Tiny Music', like Army Ants and Big Bang Baby (and I find Creep an odd choice for a band game), just so happy we're getting more STP. A truly underrated band. Hopefully they get the Pro Guitar treatment soon, would happily pay more for that.
     
    Bleed American? I understand it's already in GH5, but isn't that song called Salt, Sweat & Sugar? At least, that's what my copy of Bleed American calls it :/

    The album and song were renamed to "Jimmy Eat World" and "Salt Sweat Sugar," respectively, after September 11.  The album was changed back to "Bleed American" in 2008, but I think the song is still "Salt Sweat Sugar."  Confusing.  I know it as "Bleed American," myself.

    Might pick up a few of the STP tracks. Don't like Jimmy Eat World, though Pain is a bit of a guilty pleasure song for me, but I blame Midnight Club 3 for that.
