I can play some DLC with no strumbar, with no strumbar

This week we will play more unranked songs, including some from last week ("Electric Six", "The Raconteurs", "Alanis Morissette", and "The Flobots").

Out of all the new songs, my favourite is "Handlebars" from "The Flobots" (hence the title of this post). It's just a fun song to play and hear, especially for the vocals and drums (+ gotta love the trumpet). 2nd place goes to "Dance Epidemic" from "Electric Six" (groovy), and 3rd to "Steady, As She Goes" from "The Raconteurs" (good overall music writing). "Alanis Morissette" would get a mention (especially for "Ironic"), but her songs were so overplayed in Ottawa in 1995 that they are somewhat annoying, even to this day.

We are currently ranked 24th with 573M points in the "All Songs" Leaderboards, but our real total is 680M. Harmonix is working on an API for more efficient Leaderboard score retrieval (just the data, plus all 100,000 scores for a song at once). Once it is ready to use, I'll have here.
