    Heck yeah, I haven't heard that Andrew W.K. song in years. It's kinda sad that I heard it on an ancient GameBoy Madden game. :p

    I couldn't care less about Hot Chelle.

    Party Hard sounds like the pianist is mashing on the E key for 2 straight minutes with the occasional synth blast, and I managed to FC Raise Your Glass on the first go, sooo

    I've decided its time for more INXS DLC.

    You know, this is actually exactly what I suggested doing for on disc songs to receive pro upgrades(back when that may have still been possible). Neat to see the idea actually works.

    Excited to see what next year will bring.

    As for who gets the pack(s)...

    Looking back through when blitz would have been being developed(let's say May 2011 they MAY have been looking at tracks) to the present and the dlc that came out in the span, we had releases from(# of songs in ()):

    Foo Fighters(4)- 5/10/11
    Avenged Sevenfold(2)- 6/14/11
    Maroon 5(3)- 6/21/11
    Soundgarden(6)- 7/19/11
    Fall Out Boy(3)- 8/16/11
    Red Hot Chili Peppers(8)- 8/30/11
    Blink-182(3)- 10/11/11
    Queen(9)- 12/6/11
    Tear for Fears(1)- 1/31/12
    Shinedown(3)- 3/27/12
    P!nk(4)- 4/17/12
    Iron Maiden(6)- 5/22/12
    The All-American Rejects(1)- 7/3/12
    Foster the People(2)- 7/24/12
    Elton John(2)- 12/18/12
    My Chemical Romance(2)- 12/25/12

    Artists that had dlc prior to that time frame are:

    Barenaked Ladies- 12/23/08
    Kelly Clarkson- 11/24/09

    Artists that have never had dlc are:

    Collective Soul
    Fun.(already released without a pack)
    Great White
    Kool & The Gang
    Living Colour
    Quiet Riot
    Rick Springfield

    Now it's possible they licensed new stuff from the artists on the first list, but I'll go on the assumption that they didn't(most likely if they did would be Foo Fighters, Avenged Sevenfold, Maroon 5, Soundgarden, and Red Hot Chili Peppers).

    Looking at what's left, I'd say most likely would be Kelly Clarkson from the second list and Collective Soul from the third, with an outside chance for Kool & The Gang to get a pack and Quiet Riot possibly being released with a second song(you know the one). So the potential packs would be:

    Kelly Clarkson 01
    Since U Been Gone
    Mister Know it All
    Stronger

    Collective Soul 01
    Shine w/pro upgrade
    December
    The World I Know

    I would love a Collective Soul pack and not care for a Kelly Clarkson pack(Kool & The Gang would be alright). I'll also go out on a limb and guess next week is the Kelly Clarkson pack without an upgrade.

    I think the choice to roll out the Blitz content slowly is important. Lets say they decided to release the Elton John and MCR packs as usual but release the rest of Blitz as well with the MCR pack then people on the wall about buying Blitz would go straight for the individual DLC. Then they find out about the tournaments and miss out on winning awesome prizes as they don't want to rebuy content. Afterwards, HMX finds that there are very few people participating in the tournaments and the winner is always the same so it's cancelled.

    Listen to this song and rethink on how ridiculous your statement actually is.

    The DLC has been a joke since they started doubling the Blitz tracks.

    Haven't been super stoked on the DLC lately, but Andrew WK will be fun. And it comes early too!
