Songs that should be on Rock Band

Okay, we all know about Rock Band.  In fact, unless you’re living under a rock (or North Korea), I think it would be fairly difficult to find anyone who doesn’t.  But that’s not the point I’m trying to make…kinda.  The makers of Rock Band and Guitar Hero seem to be vexed on putting a crap load of metal into their games.  While that’s not bad, it makes the hardest tiers unbearable for people (like me) who dislike metal.

Because of this, I created my own list of songs that should be in Rock Band.  From Indie Pop to Hard Rock, this list has it all–well not really.  It’s actually quite limited.  The list features bands like Collective Soul, Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, Third Eye Blind, and Band of Horses. As always, lemme know what you think should be added to the list!
