Special compilation album of No Doubt music to feature in Rock Band 2 video game

According to Entertainment Weekly, video game sequel Rock Band 2 will feature a “special” compilation album of No Doubt music.

Stocking the digital bins, EW.com has learned exclusively, will be seminal full albums by Foo Fighters (The Colour and the Shape), Red Hot Chili Peppers (Blood Sugar Sex Magik), Jane’s Addiction (Nothing’s Shocking), Megadeth (Peace Sells… But Who’s Buying) and Stevie Ray Vaughn (Texas Flood), along with a specially-compiled No Doubt Best Of collection.

By “special”, I presume it won’t be the same track-listing as The Singles 1992-2003. Perhaps songs like Hey Baby, Running and Trapped In A Box will get the cut, possibly in place of more rockier non-singles? We’ll find out soon!

The game is due to be released in the US on September 14 for a number of gaming consoles (available at Video Game All). For those that don’t know, Rock Band allows players to perform in virtual bands using microphone, guitar and drum peripherals.

So, who is going to organise the first No Doubt Rock Band 2 fan party at their place?

Gwen Stefani 2009 Calendar

Mega Calendars has started selling the Gwen Stefani 2009 wall calendar. Interesting, all the photos seem to be from The Sweet Escape tour.  The official 2008 calendar was different in for the Europe/Australia market compared to the US version. I preferred it as it is tall with no fold and wires at the top, whilst the US version is square when folded. Anyone know if a version for Europe/Australia will happen this year? You know what I wouldn’t mind too, a No Doubt 2009 wall calendar!
