New article in the newest Game Informer has a lot of the same information we've heard over the last couple weeks, but also a couple new things and explanations of others.
- The mic on the guitar is for calibrating. Hold the guitar up to your speaker on the calibration screen and it will auto calibrate.
- Custom setlists can be as big or as small as you like.
- You can set up a custom setlist and just have it run in the background (like a music video). No charts, just the band playing the songs.
- Drum trainer has 78 patterns to help people learn better rhythm and technique.
- Confirmed list is expanded.
Avenged Sevenfold - Almost Easy
Billy Idol - White Wedding, Pt. 1
Bon Jovi - Livin' on a Prayer
Cheap Trick - Hello There
Dream Theater - Panic Attack
Elvis Costello - Pump it Up
Foo Fighters - Everlong
Joan Jett - Bad Reputation
Journey - Any Way You Want It
Motorhead - Ace of Spades
The Muffs - Kids in America
Rage Against the Machine - Testify
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Give It Away
Social Distortion - I Was Wrong
Steve Miller Band - Rock N Me
System of a Down - Chop Suey
The Who - Pinball Wizard
- New drum kit looks fucking amazing! Pads are not straight across anymore. The red and green pad are lower and off to the side. There are also three cymbals, and the kick pedal looks like the high-hat pedal I've seen sold on eBay. the new set does not look friendly for lefty-players, but hopefully things can be reconfigured fairly easily. (EDIT: The cymbal expansion is an additional purchase, and has a crash, ride, and high-hat). (EDIT 2: This is all the ION kit)
- Expansion slots on the drums to make them compatible with other games (cross-compatibility!!)
- Limited edition real Fenders that have been gutted and refixed with RB hardware will be available.
- They're teamed up with ION and will release an even better drumkit. You can unplug the game controller from the ION kit and plug in a "drum brain" and turn the kit into an electronic drum kit.
FUCK!! I WANT IT!

Well then. Seems I'll get myself the new drum kit, and hack my old one out as a couple of electronic pads to compliment my acoustic kit.
Maybe the new configuration means I'll be able to roll Foreplay instead of paradiddle it. Could lead to me actually passing it! :lol
EDIT: on second glance that's just the limited edition one that's like that. Might not get now.

I love the whole set up a playlist and just let it run in the background. That kind of almost adds even more value to the DLC. You can use Rock Band as your music visualizer. Like, honestly, I'm kind of excited to watch a band play Doolittle. I might actually sit down and watch that whole thing.

I dont have GI to see the drum set, but I did find this article.
Article
Prototype ION set
Does the set look like the one above? There is some difference for sure based on the positional description of the snare.
If it is similar to the one above, I'm guessing $150-$200. Since it switches to a midi set with a drum brain does that mean we could easily mod our existing Roland Sets to work with the game through their xbox adapter?

Ok, it looks nothing like what I posted. I found the pics, thx Duderon. From what I can see the drums insert with what looks like 1/4 phono stereo plugs into an xbox controller brain. Hopefully they sell the xbox brain thing seperate so I can use my existing set.
That thing will be $250 I bet.
