When we found out this past February that Rock Band was making it’s way to the PSP, I was excited because now I could finally rock out with my **** out in public without ending up in jail for public indecency! It looks like I’m one step closer to that dream now that we’ve got a release date for Rock Band Unplugged. If you’re like me and have been dying to take your show on the road, then make sure to mark June 9th as Rock Band Unplugged Liberation Day!

Rock Band Unplugged will have a total of 40 songs, 9 of which will be exclusive to the game before being offered as DLC to its respective console counterparts. Rock Band Unplugged will also include a full in-game store where players can download even more tasty tracks.

The thing that gets me most excited about Rock Band Unplugged is it looks like the gameplay will be similar to the PS2 classic, Frequency. I spent many a night playing Garbage’s Cherry Lips to a point where I could knock out the notes without even looking at the screen.

For the full press release including the 9 exclusive tracks, be sure to hit the break.
