    Early announcement from HMXhenry on rockband.com:
     

    Hey gang,

    Keep the holiday joy going with the Paul McCartney DLC coming out next week! Sir Paul is now featured in the Rock Band library as a solo artist, in Wings and as part of a little know group called The Beatles. Looks like he's making a play to dethrone Dave Grohl as the artist with the most appearances in RB. Enjoy!

    Available on Xbox 360 (Dec. 28) and Wii and PlayStation 3 system (Jan. 4):

    Paul McCartney – “Maybe I’m Amazed”
    Paul McCartney & Wings – “Band on the Run”
    Paul McCartney & Wings – “Helen Wheels”
    Paul McCartney & Wings – “Let Me Roll It” X
    Inhabited – “Open My Eyes”
    Siouxsie and The Banshees – “Cities in Dust” X


    (All tracks are original master recordings)

    (These tracks will be available in Europe on PlayStation 3 system Jan. 5)

    These tracks will be available for purchase as individual tracks, as well as “Celebrating Band on the Run Pack” on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 system and Wii. Tracks marked with “X” will include Pro Guitar and Pro Bass expansions for $0.99 per song.

    Price:

    $1.99 USD, £.99 UK, €1.49 EU (160 Microsoft Points) per song
    $2.00 USD (200 Wii Points™) per song
    $0.99 USD (100 Wii Points/80 Microsoft Points), £0.59 UK, €0.79 EU per song for eligible Pro Guitar/Pro Bass upgrade
    $6.99, £3.49 UK, €5.29 EU (560 Microsoft Points, 700 Wii Points) for Celebrating Band on the Run Pack
     

     Like some of the other re-releases, I should be pissed that "Band on the Run" is coming out again, but I'm not.  I'm happy to see that they put the studio version in, and that it'll have harmonies and keys (though I would've liked for pro guitar on that one).  I like "Maybe I'm Amazed," but I don't think it will translate well to Rock Band.

    Aww man no pro guitar for Band on the Run...I would have hoped it would have pro guitar support.
     
    Oh well, at least there are keys and harmonies...I'm not that mad about it either since it's actually the original version this time.  I'll re-buy it actually since it's different.

    YES! YES! YES!!! Finally, an original recording of "Band on the Run". Thank God. "Maybe I'm Amazed" is also a must. I just wish we would have got the original recording of "Jet" too.

    I know, right?  I was playing GH:WT for achievements awhile ago and wondered why that version wasn't in Rock Band.
