Delayed Ion Drum Rockers From Amazon
I was sad to find out that my order of the sweet Rock Band drum set has been delayed this morning. /cry.
They were supposed to get here today, but it looks like their estimation has moved to the 23rd.
This really puts a damper on my weekend rocking plans. I guess it just means I have to go rock out somewhere else. Through sweet code.
Face-melting solo? Check.
Small posts feel so weird. It’s like in that land between Twitterville and Essaytropolis. It’s like I’m on the highway, with a blown tire, not knowing if you walk one way or the other.
EDIT: Looks like there is some discrepancy as to how Amazon figures out the priority for shipping these things. I ordered mine on the 20th of August, and by the looks of it, no one else on the Rock Band forum had ordered these before me… but yet, these people are getting it earlier. Called Amazon, and they’ll be getting stuff in stock on Friday. This is still garbage though. I should call again and ask for a discount.
ION Drum Rocker on Amazon
Finally, they’re shipping on Amazon. I’m getting one, I guess… there goes $300.
I’ve been waiting for this to be on Amazon ever since I heard of such a set existing. Sure, you could have preordered from the official site, but that would have cost you $50 on shipping. If you’re an Amazon Prime user like me (and even if you’re not, this works on the Free Super Saver shipping) and having been waiting for this… there’s no reason to buy it from anywhere else. No tax, FTW.
$300? Yeah, it’s a bit much. Finally, with some news on Kotaku about the Drum Trainer, I’m happy with this purchase. I just hope I can directly map the set to Guitar Hero: World Tour, but I might be asking for too much.
And yes, a new blog idea is foming. Who knows how far I’ll take this music gaming news stuff…?
