Hello Rocksmith fans!
Welcome to the final DLC of June 2018!
This week we finally get three tracks from @JoanJett, and none of them are I Love Rock n’ Roll (did you know it was a cover?)
What we did get (as revealed over the weekend) is Bad Reputation (1981). We can now confirm (via Xbox NZ) that the other two tracks included will be I Hate Myself for Loving You (Up Your Alley – 1988) and a cover to replace the cover we can’t get, Crimson and Clover (I Love Rock n’ Roll – 1981).
- Joan Jett “Bad Reputation” | Lead/Rhythm/Bass [E Standard] – [XBL] / Steam
- Joan Jett & the Blackhearts “Crimson & Clover” | Lead/Rhythm/Bass [E Standard] – [XBL] / Steam
- Joan Jett & the Blackhearts “I Hate Myself for Loving You” | Lead/Rhythm/Bass [E Standard] – [XBL] / Steam

Are you happy with the @joanjett pack, or is the lack of ILRaR enough to put you off the entire pack? Let us know!
Crimson was originally recorded by Tommy and the Shandells. I thought they had a no cover policy.
who are you referring to?
Hearing Crimson and Clover makes me want the Velvet Underground and Lou Reed for some reason. I can only dream.
Definite buy! Was hoping for ‘Do You Wanna Touch Me (Oh Yeah)’, but these 3 will do just fine.
I hate myself for buy this pack <3
I have to be straight here. That letter by Dan this weekend helped. While Joan Jett is deserving of more respect than for just 1 song, not having that song instantly made me second guess the upcoming pack. I know that’s wrong, and even though I love I Hate Myself…(<–which I did for a second), that was my initial thought.) But, there are so many ways now to learn your favorite songs. I'm learning Maggot Brain from Jason Read on Youtube, Big Love (Fleetwood Mac) from the Heanor School, and Cream's Born Under A Bad Sign solo from Youtube. (hoping someone will upload Chill Out by John Lee Hooker soon) Anyway the point is, Rocksmith isn't the only way. Joan Jett has some good songs, so why sleep on the pack due to the one that got away. Definitely appreciate Dan giving us an inside peek and letting us know they've been trying to get I Love Rock N Roll. It's not Ubisoft. It's the artist. Definitely getting this pack.
Two more things.
1) As a kid I use to get Joan Jett and Chrissie Hynde mixed up. Interesting that they're both on Rocksmith now.
2) After reading this weekend's posts, I think the masses have spoken. We're now overdue for a Weird Al pack to include, I Love Rocky Road, I'll Sue Ya, and possibly Bedrock Anthem. (probably a licensing nightmare in every case.)
Sweet! It’s good to get more than just the same one or two Joan Jett songs over and over again.
At this point most of us can probably learn “I love Rock and Roll” without Rocksmith’s help anyway and since we received two versions of “Bad Romance”, I can still hold out hope for the Tommy James and the Shondells version of ” Crimson and Clover” somewhere down the road. I’m glad Joan received a dlc pack.
not a fan but at least its guitar-y. it makes sense as a rocksmith pack, that is a trend I could get used to
No Rocky Road for you!
I’ll still pick up the pack though
