I meant putting my own twist on songs while playing the real thing,
not rock band. lol. But I like what they're doing and hope they
continue to expand... and just release update patches for songs
rather than demanding people to buy them again from the get go.

Clement,
I don't think putting your own twist on songs would be very
practical. firstly because this is supposed to be a learning tool.
which means non-guitarist will probably mess something up pretty
badly and think they're putting their own twist on it and wonder why
the game wasn't taking it. haha. another reason is I'd imagine there
would be a ton of options for what people can do. there's no way
that current engine could do that. Harmonix did say they wanted to
completely blur the line between real musicians and gamers, and they
are planning on adding improvisation and the like to rock band 4.
who knows if it'll ever happen or not, but they did say it would be
a huge undertaking. thing is the engine they create will need to be
compatible with old content all the way back from rock band 1 era.
imagine if people with over 2000 songs in their libraries were told
that content was no longer playable in newer iterations of the game?
people are already having a fit because legacy DLC can't be upgraded
with keys and the like and they have to buy that DLC again. and
that's only for a few songs that have it.

Hey... whatever man. If you really want to, I'm game for that as
long as you have a guitar to work with. lol. Of course the problem
with pro guitar is... you have to learn the, um, "standard" way to
play that song... which is the way the guitarist originally meant
it. Even if you come up with the same cords and put your own twist
on the song while playing usually, rock band doesn't allow your
customizations... the cords have to be exact. I tried. lol. If you
try to do an e power cord using the top two strings... with your
fingers on the 12th and 14th fret, but the song was playerd
originally with the exact same power cord on the d and g strings
with your fingers on the second and fourth frets, the first one is
incorrect... because that was not how the official tabs say it should be.
