Country comes to Rock Band
It's about dad-gum time. A track pack for Rock Band is coming July 21 that con­tains country music. It's mostly modern-day country people such as Alan Jack­son, Brad Paisley, Keith Ur­ban, Kenny Chesney, Mar­tina McBride, Miranda Lambert, and Jason Aldean.

There are two country classics: Kenny Rogers "The Gambler," and Willie Nel­son's "On the Road Again."

I apologize. There are three. I should be shunned and nonplussed for forgetting that Shania Twain's "Any Man of Mine" is recorded sound at its finest.
