Oooo this is awesome. Thanks James 
and not to derail this thread this early but has anyone heard of the Bumblefoot album Lost Anthology? It's VERY grungey. You might like it James. Found it on iTunes last night.

That's been my biggest drawback from purchasing anything past Guitar Hero III & Rock Band.
Honestly... after I beat all of the previous GH games & Rock Band 1... I never picked it back up again - ever. As soon as I beat it, it met a closet.
I truely feel these games have ZERO replayability beyond the absolute diehards that love the franchise, which every game is going to have. But to the casual, it's kind of fleeting. You love it when you first get it, it's addictive as hell, but as soon as you beat it, you're done with it, and usually it only takes me ONE NIGHT to beat any of these games. Granted it's not on expert, but it doesn't have to be either.
What's kind of bothering me right now, is there's FINALLY all this cool shit with bands I love happening with these games, but i'm not sure I want to make the investment, when I know the previous games I kind of played and left. Is it a waste of money? Or will I play it more?
Because with a GH: Metallica out, a GH: Van Halen supposedly in the works, and Chinese Democracy the full album available for play on Rock Band 2... that's pretty fuckin' tempting. I could sit there and play Chinese Democracy for days on end, I know it...
But I don't have anything for PS3. It would require me to buy a bundle package at anywhere from $150-200, and then download CD, and that's not even counting if I want to pick up GH: Metallica for another $50-60. I also wouldn't mind having that AC/DC: Live track-pack, which is another $40.
It's just alot of money...
Not really. I mean there's times I'm just like..."meh I don't feel like picking up my guitar and dealing with learning _____ song. I'll just play it on guitar hero."
Plus I like those games mostly for the drums (although I have had all the games from the original guitar hero onward...)

For a chick? naaaa. I mean with just my 1023 that's around 170 a day. Any different week and it would be around 200. And I have female friends that text wayy wayyy more than I do.

Just curious, is it something that's pretty common? In just about every class do you see kids texting (or yourself) during class, or is it more like once a day or few times a week. What are the repurcussions if you get caught? Do they take your phone for the rest of class, or goto the principals office?
Everyday thing with everything at my school. The teachers are supposed to take your phone but depending on what teacher it is they just tel you to put it away or take it until the end of the class. and also the policy at my school is that they take the phone, put it in a bag or envelope with your name and then you have to go to student affairs with a photo ID to get it back. And honestly this doesn't affect my grades and i'm in I.B. and AP classes.
Depending on which class it is I'll send anywhere from 20 to no messages in that class. and 300 texts a day isn't alot. especially not when you consider the 5 min you generally get in between classes and the 45 minute lunch break we get.
And you have to consider the time she rides a bus, if she does, thats about an hour a day
O and btw in just 6 days i've sent 1023 texts. And I haven't really been texting much this week due to some friends of mine(the main ones I text at least) that live in a different county being on spring break

Before I had a car I had a phone, and needed it because of afterschool stuff whose end time was not always listed or guaranteed. There aren't pay phones around anymore, if you didn't have a cell phone in that situation you were going to walk home.
I think a better plan would be get them the phone but not allow texting. Either get a phone that doesn't have that option, or don't include it in the plan.
As for Twitter, I don't see why regular people should have one but I do watch a few (Bill Gould, Trent Reznor) who use it to keep in touch with fans.
The problem is is that the only way to restrict it on a phone is by setting that function to need a password. My parents used my birthdate as a password for everything for years. Finally wised up when I got tired of it and told them I knew that.
Another problem is if you don't include it on your plan the phone company charges like 99 cent for each message, recived and sent.
And also it's not TOO hard now a days to text in class. i can send at least 5 a class
