Oh yeah, Mtley Cres album Dr. Feelgood is coming in it's entirety next week on Rock Band DLC. The full album will be available for 1280 MS points, or 160 pts per track starting on Tuesday, October 14th. This is an album I played the hell out of when I was a kid, so this will be a must have for me.

I think this is a great album for Rock Band. The Crue is a rock n roll classic group (of my generation ) I sense a big content holiday sale coming on so I will pass for now.

I just say NPean's videos of the song, and they look pretty fun. I recommend Kick-start My Heart and Dr. Feelgood (for guitar). I'm probably going to but them now.
