It is, in case you’re not down in the vicinity of where all the fashionable kids hang out, the cool thing.

Next to try it is The Smashing Pumpkins, who will be releasing two old songs a few people have heard of – 1979 and The Everlasting Gaze – alongside one ALL NEW SONG called G.L.O.W.

We have it from the horses mouth – via Wired – that we’ll be able to use the same drum kit for Rock Band on Guitar Hero: World Tour…
