btw Craig...I'll see if I can get you some pictures of the setup and the way things look in person in a couple weeks. I assume they will be showing off the setup at PAX. If there's anything that PAX is actually good for, it's video game previews. We got to play the Lego demo a couple months before it was released last year, as well as play the finished version of Beatles.
 
Dang...that Bob Marley track kind of makes me sad since it's the only master track of his we might get. They might have to do any of his future tracks going forward like they did with the Who pack:

Dont be sad. looks like they might have had masters for a while http://www.rockband.com/forums/showthread.php?t=200525 :beer: I hope this stuff has keyboard and harmonies in it. iI'm starting to think it will though. why license all these great songs from bands in RB3 without licensing them for pro mode? guess only time will tell
