Flight of the Conchords Heading To Rock Band

The Beatles thing was big, but Rock Band may have just detonated the atomic bomb in its continuing war with the Guitar Hero franchise. Everybody's favorite Kiwi duo, Flight of the Conchords, announced at the Emmy Awards that they would be uploading three tracks for gamers to virtually shred. Though Sub Pop had announced there were plans to convert the band's catalog, this is the first concrete piece of news on the topic. The only problem is that neither Bret or Jemaine would elaborate on which three songs would be getting the Rock Band treatment. Everyone has a favorite, but "Business Time" and "Ladies of the World" seem to be reliable, recognizable tunes. The third one is the wild card, but "Robots" would be a nice addition to any evening of Rock Band. [Joystiq]
