Rock Band 2 Cheat Codes

REALLY fun, somewhat challenging and short song, one of my favorites from the small selection of Audition-ready songs I have.

This took seven tries total, six of which i did in a row today, haha

Expect way more Audition/Rock Band Network songs in upcoming videos, as the majority of them are really fun/difficult. Most of them don’t have Overdrive charted either, so even with an FC i didn’t gold this.

You won’t be able to find this song on Rock Band publically yet: it’s a chart that http://www.youtube.com/user/doodlebroSH made for the song. If you want it, you gotta go subscribe to him.

How do you get it on Rock Band? Just check this video out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2pL4wvoP4M

And i’ve got http://www.youtube.com/malcolmgetscrazy to thank for this video, since he’s the one who linked me to that video up there explaining how to get XNA.

The drumset i’m using is a “GoodWoods” set, a sturdy, quiet, responsive set with great rebound: you can get it at http://www.goodwoodmods.com/

I’m using the “Destroyer Pedal” in this video, which is great for zero double-hits, it’s metal, and it’s great for using heel-toe with. You can get it at http://www.rockbandpedal.net/

Also check out http://www.rockbandparts.com – The best product, best warranty, best prices. PERIOD.

And yes, I play drums in real life, been playing them on and off for 5 years.

This isn’t a DrumVox video, it’s me doing band quickplay with a vocalist.

The first run of the day on this, I actually missed on the last two notes, lawl

So the majority of you who don’t go to my stream are probably watching this video and think i’ve went insane, or that i’m intoxicated somehow.

Neither’s true, I just like ranting and acting crazy like this. Really NSFW language, especially near the end though. (for the record this is how i act on stream most of the time)

Yes, i’ve FC’ed this before lol
No, the miss wasn’t intentional, and it wasn’t the drumkit either.
No, this wasn’t scripted/practiced.
No, I don’t actually like Miley Cyrus, come on now.

Generally on my live stream, I do some pretty ridiculous stuff, a lot of which I never make any videos of due to stream quality sucking.

One of the things i’ve done a few times is one-sticking Sin Wagon, because it’s a real challenge to one stick due to the speed needed for the beat used in most of the song, and the fills are kind of odd too.

As for vocals, I told mzanniebannie to purposefully just go nuts, sing whatever: that’s why you hear her randomly screaming/saying things during the song.

This was her first time hearing/playing this song, just downloaded it right before we made this video.

http://www.azuritereaction.com for FAQ’s, blogs, video updates and more.

A lot of you voted, and it looks like you overwhelmingly prefer smooth with average quality, so here it is.

As for the actual song, it’s basically another version of Indestructible. Nothing really else to say there, actually. I intend to make a video of Perfect Insanity eventually, but only if it’s a gold/FC (and I won’t be using the bootleg path either).

NOTE: The pads are loud because i’ve put tape on them to make them loud, that’s just a preference of mine. They are quiet out of the box.

Rock Band videos again!

This video’s a few months old (hence the Pad Noise solos still being in it): the main reason I never put this video up when I originally shot it was that I wasn’t really that satisfied by the performance, as in, it wasn’t an FC, and I know I can FC it.

However, due to upcoming college as well as preparing a few other types of videos (which you’ll see eventually), I don’t have time to make RB videos for the next few weeks, which is why i’m putting up these older videos, even if they’re not my best stuff.

Clouds over California is one of the songs in Rock Band I actually like musically, which isn’t something that happens too often (I just don’t like most of the music in Rock Band, I guess).

Vocals on it are especially fun, haha.

Once I start making RB videos again, expect a lot of RB2 disc songs, the Mayhem Pack, and so forth.

Also, check out http://www.youtube.com/user/Omancer and http://www.youtube.com/user/fludstud09 because they’re awesome and deserve a ton of views/subs.

So yeah, this isn’t a FC. The main reason I never put these next 5 videos up (counting this one) is that I wasn’t really that satisfied by the performance, as in, it wasn’t an FC, and I know I can FC it.

They’re a few months old, which is why the Pad Noise Solos are still in there.

Megadeth has some of the funnest (and hardest) songs in Rock Band: eventually I hope to get a video for all of their songs on my profile.

About halfway through the video my external camera freaks out: this is because this video was shot using a mini-DVD camcorder, which is VERY weak against vibrations (the kind caused by say, my foot slamming into the metal pedal taped down to a all-tile floor). I’ve actually lost MANY runs due to this, including a much better Good Mourning/Black Friday run that I shot on the same day as the video i’ve got up now.

Once I start making RB videos again, expect a lot of RB2 disc songs, the Mayhem Pack, and so forth.

This is me and Danny (GuitarHeroPhenom) playing band quickplay on Visions, Expert Guitar/Drums.

Danny came down with Jack and Scotty and visited me a month or so ago: we tried to make a ton of videos, but one large issue hampered us.

I normally play on -20/-25 lag settings, which, when Danny tried to play on it, it pretty much made him miss nearly everything. So, we altered the lag settings to a point where he and I could play decently, but still not to our full potential: it was better than having one of us almost fail out of a song while the other was fine, though.

I know a lot of you are going to ask about the recent Mayhem Pack: I downloaded it and played it on my GH:WT kit and pedal, one foot/one pedal (as I didn’t have access to my RB kit) and passed every song in the pack first try except for the Black Dahlia song, so you can expect videos from me for every song in the pack. =)

Something else too: this video debuts a beta version of my new intro for my videos. The next video I put up will actually have sound to play with the intro, instead of it just being silent.

Also, I had a contest recently (it wasn’t on YouTube): so for the next few videos i’ll be linking the accounts/websites of people who won the contest.

So, go check out http://www.siliconknights.net

Oh, and if you want the video to not lag, don’t run anything else or move your mouse even. Found out that as long as I didn’t move or touch anything, the video actually played perfectly smooth.

A while back I uploaded a video like this of me doing Green Grass and High Tides: got taken down though.

So, here’s a new sort of “Guitar Solos” video, with four songs, done in “Keyboard Mode”, which is just what i call laying the guitar on your lap and playing the solo buttons as if they were a piano/keyboard.

I don’t actually play piano/keyboard in real life, but I did play a game called Beatmania on and off (the 5-key variant) since 1999, as well as years of Stepmania and it’s predcessors since around 2000, so that definitely helps here.

There’ll be one more of these videos coming up.
