Rock Band Wants to Take You To a Gay Bar With No Handlebars

The new releases for the Rock Band Music Store have been announced, and it looks like next week will be  a good one for downloads. Hitting the store first off is the Flobots’ “Handlebars”, which we here at CFD! are extremely excited to see, and even more excited to have it stuck back in our heads.

Next up are trios from both Electric Six and The Raconteurs; the former will be featuring the ever popular “Gay Bar”, while the latter will have “Steady, As She Goes” and more.

Wrapping up the package is a little Alanis Morissette, coming at you with “Ironic” and “Head Over Feet”. Not to mention we have a little Rush and Green Day hitting the store for Rock Band Unplugged.

  1. Fun Fact: “Gay Bar” was my default ring tone for about a year or so. Needless to say, I’m going to be picking that up. Would have been nice to see some other tracks up there like “Danger! High Voltage”, but we’ll take what we can get.

    Also, yay Flobots!


  2. Let’s start a war!

    Start a nuclear war!


  3. Electric Six is awesome! If I owned Rock Band I would totally be buying this. In fact, my wallet would hurt cause I would have to pick up the rest of them as well. And, I can ride my bike with no handlebars. =D
