    Next week's Rock Band Weekly wants to take you to a gay bar. A gay bar, gay bar! Yes, Electric Six's "Gay Bar," which inspired a rather popular piece of World of Warcraft machinima (found after the break), makes its way onto the update.Also featured: a three-pack of Raconteurs tracks, along with the most ironic song ever: Alanis Morissette's ... "Ironic." Isn't it ironic that the track doesn't actually feature a single example of irony? Perhaps Morissette meant this to be some sort of "meta" irony (although some may disagree). Check out the full Rock Band Weekly update, along with the update for Rock Band Unplugged, after the break. Select a platform below to view complete DLC listing:

Here's how they stack up:The Raconteurs pack: "Salute Your Solution" "Hold Up" "Consoler of the Lonely" Jimi Hendrix pack: "If 6 Was 9" "Little Wing" "Fire" (Live version) Both will be available for around $5.50. Raconteurs tracks will be available for $1.99 by their lonesome, but it looks like you can only get Jimi in bulk. Which one will you grab?
