(The new website has launched today, which means that I'm going to be shifting this post to be "Dan's pick for this week.")
This week is the first week with community-suggested battles! My favourite this week is the "Animal Hardcore Marathon," featuring "Eye of the Tiger," "Hungry Like the Wolf," "Cool for Cats," "Hammerhead," and "March of the Pigs."
This is just the start of community-suggested battles. As long as you keep the suggestions coming, we'll keep putting them up for everybody to play! Thanks to Osteo, this battle opens on Wednesday.
There's also "The Overlooked Song Battle," featuring "Cherry Bomb"! Like the description says, "Come on now, '70s all-girl punk band The Runaways have earned their due! Joan Jett and Lita Ford could beat the crap out of you if you say otherwise."
At best, you'll discover some great '70s girl punk. At worst, you'll be a very high ranking person on the Battle Leaderboards. Thanks to murfinator, this battle opens on Tuesday.

I've been thinking of BOTBs in my head left and right since Rock Band 2 came out, and one just hit me that you maybe you'll like:
THE COMMERCIAL JINGLES BATTLE (or think of a better name...=P )
Description: Songs you may have heard over and over again on TV commercials. What are they from? That's just half the fun!
1) One Way or Another by Blondie (Swiffer commercials)
2) Just What I Needed by The Cars (Old Circuit City commercials)
3) All Right Now by Free (Old Monster.com commercials)
The only one that isn't totally obvious is the Monster.com one (I still remember it though!), but if you could think of anything better (especially a name or description), I think it could work. Keep it up with BOTB! =D

Sadly, I think everyone in the band has this song... and they're going to make me sing it. Probably more than once.

I loved cherry bomb, idk why it didnt sell all that well. its a fun song, if i could compare to anything in rb2 id compare it to bad reputation. It's a fun song and i look forward to jumping in this battle.
