Rock Band 2 setlist and release dates

Pitchfork recently posted the upcoming setlist for Rock Band 2.  In addition to Dylan and AC/DC making their video game debut, “Shackler’s Revenge,” a track from the long-awaited Guns N’ Roses album, Chinese Democracy, will be featured in the game.

If you happen to own the original Rock Band, you’ll be able to export tracks from that disc onto the new game, and all the tunes you’ve downloaded for Rock Band the first will be playable in Rock Band 2. What’s more, each and every song featured on the Rock Band 2 On-Disc is culled from the master recordings, ensuring that your version of “Float On” won’t suffer the same fate as the Kidz Bop one. (Alas, there is still not much to be done with Geddy Lee.) Rock Band 2 will be available on Xbox 360 in September, with the PS2, PS3 and Wii incarnations to follow later this year.

Tim McGraw boots redneck, sorry, fan, from his concert for harassing a woman. Axl Rose laughs at how Tim handles a bad fan.

A statement issued by representatives from Tim McGraw’s management:

“While Tim was performing at the White River Amphitheater in Auburn, Washington last night, he watched a man rush to the front of the stage. This overly aggressive fan attacked a female fan and Tim witnessed this incident. Tim called for security, but when they could not respond quick enough Tim and several crew members removed the fan from the audience where he was then turned over to the local authorities.”

That dude is no small emo boy, either, quite a sizable redneck. Tim handled it rather well, all things considered.

Now, here’s how you handle an unruly fan, a classic demonstration by Axl Rose, lead singer of Guns’N Roses. During a show in St. Louis in 1991, Rose became irate because a fan in the crowd was taking his picture. Rose asked security to remove the fan and or camera, and when they didn’t move quick enough, he jumped into the crowd to handle the situation. You can see a few blows exchanged, and then the situation just goes haywire.

New Guns N’ Roses album leaked…ck. out the tracks here

only 13 years in the making….

Nine ‘mastered, finished’ tracks from Chinese Democracy, the album that Axl Rose has been working on for the past 14 years, were posted on a little-known rock website, http://www.Antiquiet.com.

The infamous album is reported to have cost in excess of $13million (£6.5million) to produce but its release is said to have been held up by discussions between Rose and the band’s record label Geffen Records, over rights.

A poster calling themselves Skwerl made the nine songs available on Wednesday, without revealing their source, but the tracks were removed hours later.

The poster wrote: “I always said that the more that Axl and Geffen jerked around trying to figure out how to release this finally finished album that we’ve all been waiting over 13 years for, the greater the chances would be that it would slip out of a pressing plant or office somewhere and wind up in the hands of some asshole with a blog. So…”

Despite the hasty removal of the songs, reportedly after a call from the band’s lawyers, they soon spread throughout the internet, appearing on filesharing sites as well as YouTube.

Once released, the album will be the first original recording from Guns N’ Roses since the 1991 releases of Use Your Illusion.

It is rumoured that a Guns N’ Roses reality TV show is set to be broadcast to coincide with the official release of the album.

In reference to the lengthy wait for the album, the California pop-punk band The Offspring announced in 2003 that their next album would be entitled Chinese Democrazy (You Snooze, You Lose).
