I've never even heard of the Mother Hips.
They're pretty good, listen to some of their stuff on iTunes. Or, if you want it free, listen to Time We Had on Rock Band.
 
Some new tracks are going to come out.

Release date:
Tuesday, May 6, 2008 (Xbox Live Marketplace)

Tracks:
"This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race" (Fall Out Boy)
"Date With The Night" (Yeah Yeah Yeahs)
"It Hurts" (Angels & Airwaves)


I will definitely get the Fall Out Boy one. I might get the Yeah Yeah Yeahs song as well.

Here's the full article.
 
I would love to see some more Punk. Maybe some Mad Caddies, The Hippos, NOFX, and Goldfinger are some ones I would love to see be brought to Rock Band.

NOFX would be another great addition imho.

I would love She's Nubs on it so much. It would be another Stay Alive song.

EDIT:: I would love more instruments too. Maybe sax, trumbone, trumpet, keyboards, and maybe a fiddle would really cool.
 
I think if they could put "One Winged Angel" (Sephiroth's theme) from Advent Children, it would be cool. They would have to figure out something for the singing part, though, since it's in like Latin or something.

Harmonix's grand-parent company, Viacom, announced today as part of its Q1 earnings that Rock Band has shipped three million "bundled units." GameDaily reports that the company also stated that Harmonix has had over 10 million songs downloaded for the game.

The last report we had was that Harmonix hit the six million DLC song mark in mid-March, which means the new music store apparently did help accelerate sales. Viacom's CEO said that Rock Band is emerging as a valuable long-term franchise and he expects further success from the Wii and European launches.
 
Harmonix and MTV aren't having any trouble selling downloadable content for Rock Band. The world over, armchair musicians build their set lists to create one unique to their own eclectic tastes. But the sales are still missing the coveted "cheapskate" demographic, which a new, fast-food-supported promotion should solve.

Major Nelson informs us this week that McDonalds is sponsoring a promotion to drop two songs per week to 80 Microsoft points ($1 USD) rather than the usual 160 points ($2). There will be a new duo of songs every week until June. And rather than force you to guess at which tracks could be discounted and end up spending more than you have to, the schedule of songs to be discounted has already been released.

May 6:


"crushcrushcrush" -- Paramore
"Rock and Roll Band" -- Boston
May 13:


"Shockwave" -- Black Tide
"Sugar Magnolia" -- Grateful Dead
May 20:


"We Care a Lot" -- Faith No More
"All The Small Things" -- Blink 182
May 27:


"Gimme Three Steps" -- Lynyrd Skynyrd
"Dirty Little Secret" -- All-American Rejects

Harmonix confirmed Tuesday afternoon via the Rock Band forums that the discounted prices will also be available to PlayStation 3 owners, though it appears the drops have yet to take effect in the PlayStation Store. Perhaps the discounts will come with the weekly PlayStation Store update on Thursday.
 
Wha...huh? Isn't Dirty Little Secret one of the 'exclusives' for the Wii or does it just happen to be on the Wii one?
