Hello Rocksmith fans!
Well, if you recall Canadians got Billy Talent for July 1st, 2014 so it’s time to celebrate Independence Day with Rocksmith 2014, next week!
Let’s take a look at the clue from @DanAmrich and @UbiParadise!

jose does that star spangled banana give way for the lamb of the free and the home of parades
icenine22122 was on the case!
We still weren’t sure how to unlock the GIF but then of course who came along?
FonsoQ with the answer!
McHenry
Why McHenry? @DanAmrich explains
At first I suggested a deep dive into the history of the song, but realized that would be uninteresting for people outside the U.S. Then Jason and I got to talking about how America’s national anthem is one of the most hilariously misterpreted songs ever; people sing it and have no idea what they are singing, and just go with the closest phonetic thing they can think of. So we compiled all those misheard lyrics, and made McHenry the password since the original song was written about a battle at Fort McHenry.
Awesome, and guess what song is confirmed?
We always love more Boston right?
What other songs should be included in a pack themed around the USA? I have a few thoughts…
Finally Neil Young in Rocksmith! /sarcasm
what you gonna do BROTHER?
Classic
ohhh yeah
What songs are you hoping to see next week? Let us know!
excited about the boston song.
Martina McBride – Independence Day, maybe?
I’d pay good money for Hulk Hogan’s theme song to be in this pack.
The onlly 2 songs that could dig Ubisoft out of the giant hole of bad dlc are
Bruce Springsteen – Born in the USA
Jimmy Hendrix – star spangled banner
Lololololol…… The only two, huh? The wait is over folks…..the big reveal: PJ’s a Springsteen fan.
Springsteen is just pure garbage 😈
who is Jimmy Hendrix?
Weird all yankovich the song eat it after all America is full of fat bastards
Adjusting my list to add a few.
Again, I’m surprised no one has mentioned Don McClean as we hear that nearly every 4th.
Additions:
Funkadelic – One Nation Under a Groove
John Mellencamp – Pink Houses
James Brown – Living In America
Alabama – 40 Hour Week
John Mellencamp – R.O.C.K. in the USA
2 Live Crew – Banned in the USA
Brad Paisley – American Saturday Night
Also, I read where Dan hinted that there may be a surprise. For that reason, I’ll throw in
VH – Jump
Well this shouldn’t surprise you then
Creed’s Only in America shows up as well.
Actually, following up on my previous post, I think we may be getting the Brooks & Dunn song.
The thing I don’t get is that a search for “only in america creed” and “only in america brooks” both turn up a Rocksmith listing, however the Creed song is actually titled In America (without the “only”; I realized this after I made my last post).
I tried searching “in america creed” but it doesn’t work, so we might not be getting the Creed song after all.
That screen doesn’t look familiar. I’m guessing this is a search conducted on the PS3, correct?

@Elliott re: Neil Young
This keeps confusing me. America is surely the continent, of which north America is a part, within which the USA and Canada both are countries?
Anyone with a globe will also note that there’s a third country in north america as well despite what the UN says. Lol
It’s always been my understanding being a Canadian that “America” is more of a concept. They are the United States of America but their sense of patriotism has made the phrase “America” represent them and not the three other countries in the continent.
4th of July by Soundgarden would be nice…and hate all you want on this one but I like America by Imagine Dragons that would be smooth. Livin in America by Morris Day was it? Remember from Rocky 3…that’d be sweet too.
I hope grand funk railroad “we’re an american band” is in !!
Coming to America – Neil Diamond, bonus if it came with a rhinestone jumpsuit.
It would be cool to see “You can still rock in America” by Night Ranger.
Oh yeah, that would be amazing
Liberty by Steve Vai anyone? Off the same Passion & Warfare album as For The Love Of God….I know it’s a short track but it’s awesome and the more instrumentals the better in my opinion….
Top if my wishlist would be American Nightmare by The Misfits but that’s unlikely….Does it have to be USA or patriotic themed or could it be something off the wall like Yankee Rose by DLR?
Rocksmith is getting a Boston song… \o/ … buts its the national anthem and not something off of their first album… -_-
Half of the first album is already in Rocksmith. I wouldn’t object to a couple more though…
its one of the greatest albums of all time. Would love to have the rest of the album as a pack. “Smokin’!”
What the hell is that album cover lol
Seriously, it’s like a bad CGI short film
it seems dated now of course, but in the 80s the whole sci fi/ fantasy thing was pretty big and you’ll see similar art work on many albums of the time. Boston even used space ship props at most of their concerts.
What about Amerika, by Rammstein?
Yes, I know the band is German, but it’s named after a USAF base…
Hey can we get Seth Chapla back in? lololololololololololololololololololololol
Living in the USA by Steve Miller would be sweet!
Lol for neil young , im no american but if a horse with no name , suite madame blue , star spangled Banner , plus lol team america , nah rock in a free world that would be awesome still no attach for the last one
I second Suite Madame Blue, good stuff from the early days of Styx, before the robot that shall not be named.
Which Way to America by Living Colour would be nice. Great solo, and they deserve more songs in the game.
Hes canadian
Excited for this pack!
I’m surprised you all haven’t mentioned Don McClean.
Also, think of all of those songs you hear during the 4th of July fireworks/laser shows.
Living In America – James Brown
40 Hour Week – Alabama
R.O.C.K. in the USA – John Mellencamp
Banned in the USA – 2Live Crew
American Saturday Night – Brad Paisley
Team America Theme Song
That would be too awesome.
War pigs?
Umm no.
Jimi hendrix
Will we have a bunch of non-American Commies complaining about the DLC? I bet PJ-10 isn’t an American. Anyways, I’m picking Neil Young’s Rocking In The Free World.
Neil Young is my favourite American musician.
Do a lot of people not know Neil Young is Canadian? lol
Damn Elliot. You beat me to the punch.
I feel so betrayed. 🙁
Sounds like a good time to revive that classic category from MTV’s Remote Control – Dead or Canadian.
But America and Canada are basically the same country, right? Most people can’t tell the difference.
More Hendrix?
