“We’re working hard to get the Rock Band Network open public beta release of tools up before the end of the year, with our RBN storefront launching in early 2010. Exact dates still TBD. The tools necessary for bands to start authoring and prepare their content for review are already live on Creators.rockband.com. The open beta launch will add access to the currently private website where all of the RBN community activity and peer reviewing of tracks will take place. People who join the Rock Band Network (bands, fans or otherwise) will be able to play and preview any song before it hits the store, so they should stay tuned for the official launch.”

So, now we wait! Bombsite Studios is still working to produce as many game tracks as we can to debut when the Rock Band Network launches!

The full proceeds from the event will be evenly distributed between the Children’s Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota and Child’s Play, a national charitable organization that provides video games and systems for children’s hospitals. “We believe play is crucial to a child’s health because medical settings can be a new, unfamiliar world for children and teens,” says Annie Waters, Senior Annual Giving Officer at Children’s Hospitals and Clinics. “Often through play, a child can relax enough to express feelings or fears about medical experiences. We are grateful to the organizers and supporters of Be Excellent to Each Other for providing these opportunities to encourage children to play while they are with us for care.”

This is a 21+ event and there is no cover charge; however, attendees will have a variety of opportunities to donate to the benefitting organizations:

• Play Rock Band and The Beatles: Rock Band on the stage at The 501 Club – lights, full sound, and a roaring audience fueling your rock ambitions!

• Listen to DJ Jake Rudh of TRANSMISSION between sets of Rock Band throughout the night.

• Bid on amazing drawing prizes and silent auction scores from great local donors like the Minnesota RollerGirls, Robot Love, Game Informer, Adam Turman, and many other bars, restaurants, and boutiques. Art, sculptures, collectibles, and games have also been supplied by 2K Games, Square Enix, Electronic Arts, Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim staple The Venture Bros., and original pages from the latest run of the Green Lantern comic books, with tons of other great items!

• Just come and drink for the kids – The 501 Club is donating 10 percent of the bar tab for the night to the two charities, so every beer and cocktail really helps!

• Watch bands, teams and groups you know and love play Rock Band. They may rock harder than you, but they very well might not. Look for performances by the Minnesota RollerGirls and your favorite local bands. The lineup will be posted on the website prior to the event.

First, a song is submitted for play test, it is at this point that we are looking for comments, suggestions, and refinements, to get ready for publishing.
Next it goes on to peer review, where songs must pass all the criteria necessary to get into the Rock Band Network store.

Once the song is released from peer review, its available for purchase within a couple days.

Finally, Caleb gives us a brief overview of the documentation that will be available on the site.
