The Rumor
The Beatles are known for their vocal harmonies, which often have a second singer boogying along to the designated lead singer. The fact that The Beatles: Rock Band limited edition comes with a microphone stand seems to lend weight to the possibility that a back-up singer will be supported by the game. So far, however, the rumor is just that. -
Limited Edition
The limited edition of The Beatles: Rock Band, in addition to a microphone stand, includes a Hofner bass controller, a Ludwig-branded drum set with pearl finish, a replica drumhead, a metal kick pedal, a mic (they wouldn't just give you a stand!), and other goodies. The price tag? $249.99. -
