MTV have announced plans to deliver a show in support of 2 - the show will apparently be called Rock Band 2: The Show. The programme will apparently be all about, yes that's right, people playing the new rhythm-action game.

Groups of four are being sought to take place in the show, a casting advert placing the emphasis firmly on the quirky.

An event in the today will officially lift the lid on the new show; Alice Cooper rolled-out for promotional purposes.

Rock Band 2 will land this week stateside, a temporary exclusive, although we've no word on a European debut.

More Rock Band shenanigans soon.
