I’d play blackjack with the $10,000 to try to win even more money.
I’d donate a good amount of it to ExtraLite and with the remaining amount, I would buy all the songs available for Rock Band.
ION Drumkit (with brain), some of those replica RB guitars, giant plasma TV, and then party like a (plastic) rock star.
I would buy the ION Drum set for Rock Band and pay my credit cards with the rest! Boring, I know! LOL
If I won $10k in the contest, it would have to be split 4 ways first (due to there being 4 band members), so the better question is: what would I do with $2500? I’d pay off some bills, then spend the rest on Rock Band equipment (things that need replacing) and pre-order Rock Band 3, for sure. As for the other 7500? Well, that’s up to the other guys to decide.
I’d build a collapsible (so I can put it away and set it back up when needed) drum riser and stage for my Rock Band parties. Complete with cup/drink holders, inserts for dual stage kits, mic stands (including one for the drummer,) and built in extra speakers. Then throw mega-rb party.
oh… and, well… maybe do something nice for my family too.
If I won $10000 I would pay off my mother’s medical bills from her recovery of a stroke and give the rest to charities that help in finding a cure for diabetes.
I’d use it to plug up an oil spill/sinkhole. After I buy every downloadable Rock Band song, of course.
Use it to get a place of my own. I want a nice new little apartment.
I’d turn our unfinished basement into a nice man cave
I would deck out my Rock Band experience. 3 Wireless Xbox Mics for Harmonies, Ion Drumset with Extra Cymbals, Drum Throne, Fender Replica Guitar Controllers, HD Projector/TV and Surround Sound Speakers, All DLC and RBN DLC, Rock Band 3, Beatles Rock Band, maybe the Rock Band Stage Kit, etc.
It’d disappear in a cloud of hookers and coke.
If I won $10,000 I would pay off my credit card bills. Then I would buy a new home entertainment system. My TV and speakers are out of date, and a new set would be amazing.
Pay off some bills and pre-order Rock Band 3 bundle with all new instruments (I’ve been using the RB1 instruments since launch…well, barring an early guitar replacement from EA).
I would take Ringo out for the greatest–the absolute GREATEST–night of his life.
I’d pay off student loans!
I would give some money to my family to help pay credit debts and school debts,try to get myself a cheap car so i don’t have to rely on people for a ride and help one of my closest friend’s repair his car since he was recently involved in a car accident.
I would spend it all on a big GD:RB party where you could play the game, hang out, listen to great music, eat snacks and most of all PARTY LIKE A F¤¤¤¤¤G ROCK BAND ROCK STAR.
I would spend it on a vacation. Maybe going to Asia ?
I would buy every song/game/instrument possible and make the biggest Rock Band party in my town.
If I won the 10 G’s…
I’d donate a decent chunk to Challenged Athletes Foundation to help my marathon fund-raising effort. Next, I’d buy a few much needed RB accessories. I’d toss a bunch more in the bank because, you know, bills and that. For the grand finale: electric guitar.
Because, come on.
Vacation, Bills, DLC
A new tv and DLC.
I think if I won those 10,000usd, I would pay off my credit cards and some other debts I have, buy a car (used one of course), and with the rest lots and lots of Rock Band songs.
i thought about just buying porn, but then i decided it would be better to pay off credit cards, because they can also be used to buy porn.
With $10,000USD, I’d be paying off some bills and then saving some to buy Rockband 3 when it’s released.
I would get a Nexus One and Nook, maybe an ipad, a home stereo, all the Track Pack discs, and a ton of DLC.
What would you do if you won $10,000 in the Total Rock, Total Rewards competition?
Pay rent.
Love your new banner, BTW.
The only correct answer is purchasing 5,000 Rock Band songs
Well, I guess I would pay college tuition as well
With my share of the $10K, I’d blithely apply it to my student loans and leftover consumer debt. It’d have almost no tangible impact on my day-to-day lifestyle at all! What an extraordinarily boring answer!
I’d probably put it into my student loans; it would cover about 10% of them.
I’d give it to my Dad, because he has a lot of bills.
I’m boring – I would pay off some debt, and use the rest as a downpayment on a car!
I’d buy some new Rock Band instruments and a projector. When the next block party comes around, I’ll be bringing the entertainment!
I would use it to make my ultimate mancave. Big Screen TV, and a Huge Sound System. And what Rock Band mancave would be complete without an actual stage to add to the Rock Band experience? Plus I’d get all the DLC available. And lets not forget the ION Pro, and the Rock Band guitar made using a real Fender Strat body. That would be awesome…
I would buy a real drum set and the Ions and rock out.
I’d buy tons of Rock Band DLC and gear!
I’m moving soon, so about half of that would go into getting my wife and I across the country. About a grand would go into feeding the habit; DLC, ion rocker, fog juice, a bigger instrument collection, etc. I’ve also had my eye on a bracelet made from one of James Hetfield’s guitar strings for my wife as an anniversary gift. The rest would go towards a down payment on a house
I would buy every song available for Rock Band, and then a 200 GB hard drive.
I’d buy a huge collection of twisty puzzles.
First I would buy as much DLC I could get my hands on. Second upgrade my current drum kit. Third, fix my acctuall drum kit that I broke months ago and haven’t been able to fix. Forth, (but if this actually happened this would probobly come first) I would fly all of my band mates in my RB band ”Year of The Demon” so we could finnally meet each other. That would be a great day.
I’d flesh out my Rock Band area/system/stuff a bit… A new TV, a bunch of DLC, a few new instruments/mics, etc etc. I can’t keep up as is. haha
I would buy all of the Rock Band DLC I can fit onto my XBox hard drive.
If I won $10k I’d give it to my wife so I didn’t feel so bad for all the money I’ve invested into RB (bundle, dlc, TV, stereo, add ons, etc).
Buy a Les Paul
I’d buy a Gibson SG and go on a little trip with my share of the money.
I’d buy the GuitarHero franchise! \o/
Pay off some debt and fill in some of the gaps in my dlc library!
Rock band songs and a monkey to play them for me
Hookers and blow.
