Well, two or three, depending on how you like The Go-Gos. The entire thing is available for 440 on Xbox Live, $5.49 on PSN, or 550 Wii Points, and the individual songs are as follows:
Say what you want about "We Got the Beat," but we won't tolerate hating on the Crue or Night Ranger and, from the looks of those hairstyles above, they won't either. These songs are available now for both games, so get yourself mo-tor-in' on over to the store if you want 'em.

 Next month's Guitar Hero 5 and Band Hero DLC should satisfy would-be rockers of all types, offering an eclectic mix of -- oh, there's totally some Flogging Molly! Sorry, we just had to get that out of our system, because St. Patrick's Day is next month and because, man, Flogging Molly is totally awesome.

There are four distinct track packs coming next month, featuring OK Go, Blink-182, the aforementioned Molly Floggers and an '80s track pack -- because nothing says March like a dusty old denim jacket with the sleeves cut off and some Night Ranger.

Your regularly scheduled Rock Band Weekly and Rock Band Wiikly will not be seen today, as we interrupt your programming with an amalgamation of the two. Harmonix has announced the latest round of Rock Band DLC and, as post headlines would have you believe, it contains notable amounts of Blink-182, Weezer, and KISS. Don't let your parents know you're downloading any KISS, though. It totally stands for Knights in Satan's Service.

This week's Wii Rock Band DLC offering not only delivers the eclectic mix from last week's Rock Band Weekly announcement, but also adds ample variety of its own. With 25 tracks available, across many different genres of music, there's likely something in the list to satiate the DLC track hunger. This is the dim sum of Rock Band Wiikly announcements. Check out the full list after the break.

According to a post on Imeem.com, Mötley Crüe's 1989 album Dr. Feelgood is being prepped as the latest album for Rock Band, set to release on October 14. No price for the album is listed but the standard $2 per track seems most likely if the information is accurate.

While the information seems plausible, we're waiting on confirmation from Harmonix before we throw confetti in celebration. Our sister site Joystiq has contacted the developer on the matter and we'll keep you informed of any updates.

According to a post on Imeem.com, Mötley Crüe's 1989 album Dr. Feelgood will be available as Rock Band DLC starting Oct. 14. We've contacted Harmonix to confirm the information. There is currently no price for the album listed and we really don't have a baseline for album cost to speculate, but standard pricing has been $2 for individual tracks.

Even if Mötley Crüe is the source of the information, that doesn't necessarily mean that date will come to pass. We'll update as soon as we get more details.

[Thanks mdouet]

Next week's selection of Rock Band DLC is brought to you by this summer's Crüefest, so tracks are all offered at a price of $1 a piece. There's also a song called "Promised Land," which will be free and comes from the upcoming movie The Rocker, starring Dwight from The Office. HMXSean also hints that there should be some "news-type-stuff" being announced on Monday -- what (or who) could it be?*

Crüefest Pack (240 MS points / $3)
  • "Down At The Whisky" - Mötley Crüe (80 MS Points / $1)
  • "Time is Running Out" - Papa Roach (80 MS Points / $1)
  • "Who's Going Home With You Tonight" - Trapt (80 MS Points / $1)
  • "Promised Land" - Vesuvius (Free)
Videos for these songs can be found after the break. The tracks will be available for download next Tuesday and Thursday for Xbox 360 and PS3, respectively.

*Honestly, we have no idea what it is. We're just joshin' about the Who's Next thing because it's just gotten so ridiculous at this point.

Coming out of nowhere, a single off of Mötley Crüe's new album will be available as Rock Band downloadable content this week. This marks the first time a brand-new song is released as a playable track in the game. Needless to say, it is a master track.

Individual song
  • "Saints of Los Angeles" - Mötley Crüe (80 MS points/ $1)
We've placed what we believe is the song after the break -- we're not sure if there's an actual video yet. The rest of this week's Rock Band DLC was previously announced last Friday. The song releases tomorrow on Xbox 360 and this Thursday on the new PSN.
