Hey everyone! I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce myself to the masses. I’m Chicago Horde (most people call me Brad) and I’m the newest (and first) addition to the Rockgamer.com editorial team! Mike & Jen, in their infinite wisdom, have given me the chance to help bring you any and all news and information regarding music gaming in general, obviously with a focus on Rock Band & Guitar Hero. *raises horns*

A little about my RB/GH preferences:

• Favorite Guitar Hero track (from disc): “The Trooper”
• Favorite Guitar Hero track (DLC): “Bark at the Moon”
• Favorite Guitar Hero game: Guitar Hero II (360 version)
• Favorite Rock Band instrument: Guitar/Drums (Hey, it’s a toss-up!)
• Favorite Rock Band track (from disc): “Foreplay/Long Time”
• Favorite Rock Band track (DLC): Tie between “Smokin’” & “Truckin’” (Until the Judas Priest album hits!)
• Number of Rock Band tracks owned: ALL
• Most wanted band: AC/DC

OK, enough about me. I want to hear from you! If you’re not registered for the forums, do it now! I’m on there pretty frequently, and welcome any and all questions/comments. Plus, I need someone to help me help hijack Mike’s threads! I can also be contacted at chicagohorde@rockgamer.com. (Just give me a few days to figure out how to get into that e-mail address…)

I’m fully committed to contributing to this site with anything and everything our members and guests want to know about. (And if you’re a guest, register already!) This site is for all of us who love rocking out with these games, and our site will only get better with input from you! Tell us things you want to have happen or would like to see here. Let’s strive to make this the premier site for all things rock-gaming related!

On a final note, I must give mucho thanks to Mike & Jen for their generosity in sending this opportunity my way and believing I have what it takes to help out around here. I will do my best to make myself a valued contributor to the site and not let anybody down!

If any of you are on LIVE, send me an invite sometime! (I’m on the gamer tag page here…..) Especially if you’ve created any band members based on “He-Man & the Masters of the Universe” characters! LOL

(No, seriously…)

And with that, BEWARE THE HORDE!
