    I went ahead and made a wiki page for this already, but figured I'd post this info here as well.

    Harmonix announced another 20 song track pack for PS2, Wii, 360, and PS3, coming out on May 19 for $30.  All 20 songs have already been released for the 360 and PS3.  Also for the 360/PS3 crowd, it'll include a download code so you can import the songs into RB/RB2.

    The songs are:

    1. Boston "Peace of Mind" - 1976
    2. Boston "Rock and Roll Band" - 1976
    3. Dead Kennedys "California Über Alles" - 1987
    4. Dead Kennedys "Holiday in Cambodia" - 1987
    5. Free "All Right Now" - 1970
    6. George Thorogood & the Destroyers "Bad to the Bone" - 1982
    7. James Gang "Funk #49" - 1970
    8. Jethro Tull "Hymn 43" - 1971
    9. Lenny Kravitz "Let Love Rule" - 1989
    10. Pat Benatar "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" - 1980
    11. The Police "Can't Stand Losing You" - 1978
    12. The Police "Truth Hits Everybody" - 1978
    13. Rush "Closer to the Heart" - 1977
    14. Rush "Red Barchetta" - 1981
    15. Siouxsie and The Banshees "Kiss Them For Me" - 1991
    16. Steve Miller Band "Take the Money and Run" - 1976
    17. Steve Miller Band "The Joker" - 1973
    18. The Stone Roses "Love Spreads" - 1994

    Personally, I already own the songs that I would want out of this pack (with the exception of Siouxsie and the Banshees and the Steve Miller Tracks), but I figure I'll eventually be able to get this on the cheap, download the tracks, and give the disc to my nephews.  And while "Love Spreads" is my favorite song across RB, hands-down, I'm not so sure a song from '94 constitutes "classic rock."  There certainly are a few head-scratchers in there.

    Yeah, what is Lenny Kravitz doing there? And since when did Free have a song on RB? Besides that, I pretty much have the majority of these songs so this isn't a buy for me. It still looks good for those who have not gotten it yet.

    @RHCPfan24: All Right Now came out around Christmas 2008.

    @Venatio: "Old enough" is not the same thing as "classic."  If they'd used "Are You Gonna Go My Way?" I could see where it would fit in here.  But "Let Love Rule"?  No way.  Also, I'm not sure if you caught that this is a retail disc that has all 20 songs on it.  So you either get them all, or none.

    Just downloaded "Love Spreads". According to RBDLC.com, it is one hell of a song. So, yeah, I am not going to get this pack. If you don't have these songs, though, I recommend [most] of them.

    A bunch of great songs there, but I have all of the ones that I want.

    This pack seems to use the phrase "Classic Rock" very loosely. o.0
