Not sure if any of you guys play the rockband/guitar hero games, but I've been playing for a while. I recently got the AC/DC track pack for the 360 and it's fuckin awesome. If you have never played rock band you got to check it out.

What system did you play it on? Reason I ask is, did you get to play any of the available downloadable songs or was it on ps2?

I was playing it on 360. I rented it for the ps3 and there are quite a few good songs available for download. I'll probably end up buying the whole set up once I move out of my apartment. I only have a guitar and was playing it one night, not realizing how loud I had it and the cops showed up. When I answered the door I had the guitar around my neck and told the cop I didn't realize I was rocking so hard. He thought it was kind of funny and just told me to turn it down because my neighbors were complaining.

What kind of shitbag neighbors call the cops first? Do you fucking live in some sterile apartment complex in WDM with Meadow or Brook or Woods in the name? My last apartment in Neck Moines was on 29th and Cottage Grove, it was awesome, I could play my music as loud as I wanted, but then again, the lady downstairs got raided for selling crack (as did this dude across the street), my next door neighbor died from a coke overdose and a dude 4 or 5 doors down got killed by the police and I only lived there for 8 months. Oh yeah, and I got jumped at like 6 o'clock at night about 100 feet outside my front door, but it was still better than those shitty apartments in WDM.

I have a whole building full of shitbag neighbors. This isn't even the first time they have called the cops without first knocking on my door. One other time, I was sitting around listening to music around 8 pm on a Saturday night and the cops showed up. The music wasn't even that loud and the cops basically told me I was doing nothing wrong and said to carry on as I was.
Your living situation in Des Moines isn't too far removed from where I am living right now. One night this guy who lived on the second floor passed out in his bath tub at about 4 am and when the guy who lived below him got home the next day his apartment was flooded in about 2 inches of water. There are numerous crackheads, methheads, washed up drunks, basically deadbeats of all walks of life. I've seen the ambulance show up several times and all sorts of crazy shit, although it has gotten better. I don't think it is quite as bad as what you are explaining but I understand. Oh yeah, I got jumped about two blocks away at 2:15 am one night by four young hood rats for not giving them my phone and wallet last March, fucking bastards.
I thought about putting a note on my door next time I plan on turning it up a little. If I knew who called them I'd just tell them to politely knock on the door and ask me to turn it down a notch but what can you do?
I did buy the Rock Band (1 and 2) rig and have been playing it a ton over the last few days, which makes me want to creep up the volume so I can enjoy to the fullest until the cops show up again.
I should be out of this shithole place within the next couple of months, it's been a pretty good stepping stone to getting ahead while I am young and single (no woman would ever choose to live there, btw).

Where the hell do you live? East side? South side? Drake area? Fleur Place? I used to live in Fleur Place back in the day (27 something Fleur) and that place was crawling with tweekers back in the mid 90's, it's gotta be terrible by now, but it was only like 4 or 500 a month for a giant 3 bedroom apartment.
People don't realize it, but Neck Moines is in some parts damn near as sketcy as big cities. For instance, when I lived in New York, I was never once scared of getting jumped, as I lived on the Upper East Side and there were no proles around there. In Chicago, sometimes I stay at work until pretty late, and there are some shady fuckers hanging around, but it's never as scary as it was walking from 29th and Cottage Grove to Drake at night. In cities there are people around, but in Neck Moines, if you get jumped, chances are no one will see it, so there is very little disincentive for wannabe thugs.

It's probably just some flashbacks of your rape fantasies.

I actually live on Ingersoll near Dahl's, which is not a bad neighborhood by any means. I just happen to live in the building full of efficiencies with $410 dollar rent and no utilities, which is about as cheap as it gets these days. When I got jumped it was after 2 am and the bar crowd had all cleared out. Every time I tried getting up the dude asked me to give them my shit and I told them no then I'd get another boot or fist to my face as I was standing up. This happened about 8 or 9 times. I was saying things like, "Jesus Christ, are you done yet?". They ended up getting my phone and wallet. I was hoping a cop or someone would drive by and interfere but the street was like a damn ghost town.
I'll be out of this dump soon enough.

Twine, did you get it on 360, PS3, or PS2? If you got it on the 360 I'll pm you my gamertag and we'll jam out.

PS3, pretty much everyone I know has a 360. Which blows because the online on 360 is WAAAAAY better.
