Is it just me?

I feel ashamed.... I've got both Rock Band and Guitar Hero Aerosmith. With the exception of about 3 songs, I've never heard any of the tracks in either of the games. Now Guitar Hero is slightly more understandable because I've never been a fan of Aerosmith, but Rock Band?!

Is it just me or are the set lists really shit? Where are the songs people actually know? When the occasional hit comes up that I recognise, I enjoy the game 10x more. But they are so few and far between!

Okay, perhaps I'm just a boring old Radio 2 listener. But where are all the good songs? There are so many available, yet there is such utter dross in these games. Even when you have big bands, it's nearly always an obscure album track.

I keep thinking they are saving the best 'til last, but I'm about half way through Rock Band and there's still nothing to get excited about.

Also, is it me or is Rock Band incredibly easy? I went straight in on expert, and I've not failed a single song on my first attempt yet and I'm currently working my way through the songs in Chicago.
