Also, any exported content from the original Rock Band and its Track Packs deemed 'Family Friendly' can be used in the game.

Reception[edit]
Eurogamer reviewer Keza MacDonald called Lego Rock Band's setlist 'an unusual selection .. but undeniably varied.', but was disappointed by the small number of songs.[11]Game Informer's Bryan Vore referred to the setlist as being 'weak', with 'several throwaway tracks you’ll forget the instant they’re over.'[12] Jack DeVries, a reviewer for IGN, felt that the game has a varied setlist, but not enough songs compared to Rock Band 2 and Band Hero.[13]
