    I think I'm getting Carpol Tunnel Syndrome from playing the drums. Anyone have similar problems?

    eh, im going for guitar right now. I had yet to fail a song until...the last tier.

    Now I have yet to pass a song.

    I love the weekly DLC, though

    He is right.

    In response to your question however it really does help being a drummer And yes, Green Grass and High Tides is a pain of a song, the guitarist gets to have all the solos/fun. It is a 10 minute song with like the same beat so it does get boring. I'm usually pretty tired after playing through it on hard.

    Agreed.

    Lots of great stuff, too! I mean, some of them suck but most of them are pretty good. Yea, what are they at now, like, 50?

    _________________________________________________

    I drum. thats it. sometimes i sing, but i almost always drum.

    and btw, whoever said whatever they said about green grass and high tides is 105% correct. That song is a pain. Its ultra boring on drums and on guitar is obsessed with hammer-ons.

    _________________________________________________

    I dont play it much though because it seriously screws up my halo. Like, i suck so bad at halo after playing it for a while.

    Yeah it just pisses me off being a huge thrash fan getting the haunted and at the gaytes put on there. Evile kicks ass though, I remember listening to them on their first demo and talking with their guitar player on some message board. Cool that they made the game.

    And yeah having wrathchild (a cover, but still) and some NIN makes this seem pretty good.

    I don't really like that style of dm. As far as metal goes I'm more into old school dm, thrash, NWOBHM, traditional, and some power metal. So yeah I'm not really an at the gates fan.

    I'm pretty good at the drum, but playing 10+ hours gets tiring really fast.
