I play Rock Band every Sunday. My mom just graduated to Hard on Bass and is teetering on the brink of the same for Guitar (it helps her rheumatoid arthritis in her hands), my wife sings and plays the keyboard, and I rock my ION kit. It’s a family tradition. Additionally, my wife and I are working on getting in shape, and adding in a little Kinect-fueled fun with Dance Central 3 was a no brainer. I guess you could say that I’m a bit of a Harmonix fan. Well, if YOU are a Harmonix fan, you might want to check out their recent Rock Band DLC giveaway for a chance to win one of 1,500 free DLC codes. Don’t feel that lucky? You also have another chance at picking up codes by simply playing online with other Rock Band fans on the third weekend of every month, courtesy of Rock Band Aid – a super fansite for addicts like me. Check it this nibble from the FAQ on their page:
6. How can I win these giveaways?
There are a couple ways you can win! We’ll be doing trivia throughout the nights on the site and on our Twitter page, @RockBandAide. We’ll also be dropping codes throughout the weekend, so be sure to stay tuned for those!
7. HELP! I can’t participate during a Community Weekend! Can I still win things?
Fear not! Even if you can’t play during the weekend, you’re still eligible to win things! Just be sure to answer the trivia question first (and correctly, of course!) or grab the code drop before anyone else!
8. Are there specific songs we should be playing?
Not at all! Play the songs that make you happy! As long as you’re playing with the community, you’re good to go for the Community Nights!
If you missed our awesome coverage of the E3 demo for Fantasia: Music Evolved, you can also check that out while you are at it. Music moves and enriches our lives, and Harmonix “gets us”. Good luck on the giveaway!
