Toby Keith: Tonkin’ Up Rock Band, Y’all
Posted March 30th, 2009 in Articles, Events, Microsoft, News, PS3, PlayStation Network, Sony, Wii, Xbox 360, Xbox Live by Adam Robinson

If SpongeBob SquarePants doesn’t wet your rocker whistle, maybe Willie Nelson’s buddy Toby Keith will.
The “Toby Keith 6-Pack” is coming to Rock Band next week (on Xbox 360 Tuesday, April 7, and PS3 on Thursday, April 9). Keith fans get — you guessed it — six songs from Keith’s 16-year music career to honk their proverbial tonk: “Should’ve Been A Cowboy,” “How Do You Like Me Now,” “Beer For My Horses,” “Who’s Your Daddy,” “I Love This Bar,” and “She’s a Hottie.” That last one was previously only available on Keith’s 35 Biggest Hits album, so I guess that makes this special.
Although I detest the man (and his music), I’m sure there are plenty of Toby Keith fans to whom this news is like waking up on Christmas morning and seeing a brand new Ferrari in the driveway. Well, maybe not. It could be more like winning a game of bingo. Anyhoo, the pack will set you back $9.99 (800 MS Points), or $1.99 (160 MS Points — which is actually cheaper) individually.



I hate honky tonk country with a passion. Makes Spongebob sound grammy-worthy. Maybe that’s why country music has their own music awards nowadays. It’s not good enough to win actual awards…
There are a few alt-country artists I like, but the mainstream stuff irritates me. Toby Keith… Ugh, don’t get me started on that guy.
