strawberry floating RIGHT! WHAT A SONG!
The hope is that the alt-rock genre post-2003 is what's coming up this week, in which case it will be the spotlight as I think the other one classes as country.

We’re up! The premier league baby!
Looks like I got second place vocals, and third for vocals XP in diamond
EDIT: Broken confirmed to be the spotlight song btw Frank - excellent news and potentially good for next week's challenge. Final push for the top 100? Think we're all a bit burned out on RB but we've really done well this season.

DLC hasn't been for me this season, I've only picked up about 6 songs since New Year!
Nice one on the promotion! and congrats on your medal places Cora! It will be cool to see the scores required to reach the very top as we have only ever got this far in the last week. We must be in the top 70 teams now?

If 30 teams went up then yeah, we’re one of 70 in the top league. I don’t know if we’ll actually move into the top 70 on seasonal rivals points, but the fact that we have a week to mess around in Bloodstone is awesome. Let’s see how far we can take it.

I can't see our overall position on the app, has anyone checked the in game leaderboard or hasn't it updated yet?
I noticed that we moved up to the top 2% (about 140-160 teams) after last weeks close effort for promotion so we should surely be in the top 100 teams overall now?!

The app hasn’t updated - looks like it’s showing last weeks results and probably will until someone from Harmonix shows up for work in a few hours.
I’d expect us to have a numerical placement now as we’re getting nearly 500 points for going up - hopefully we’ll find out soon! I’m at work so can’t check on the Xbox sadly.

Season 4 Week 8 challenge:It's the final week and GRcade have already made it in to the top league!
twitter.com/RockBand/status/966492895988641794
This weeks Xbox Sale:5 DLC songs matching the weekly theme have been discounted recently, no idea what this weeks 5 are (if there are 5 on sale at all!)
Complete Spotlight Season 4 Pass (last week to buy it):All songs will remain on sale individually and in their packs, however this is the last week to purchase the Season 4 bundle at a discounted rate before it's removed from sale when the Season 4 competition ends (February 27th!).
Songs included with the Season 4 Spotlight Pass:
- Billy Squier - "Lonely Is The Night"
- Blue Swede - "Hooked on a Feeling"
- Coldplay - "A Sky Full Of Stars"
- Depeche Mode - "Enjoy the Silence"
- Matchbox Twenty - "Unwell"
- Nine Days - "Absolutely (Story of a Girl)"
- Seether ft. Amy Lee - "Broken"
- Shania Twain - "That Don't Impress Me Much"
- Skid Row - "18 and Life"
- Skid Row - "I Remember You"
DLC Delists:A couple more songs are not being renewed to be kept on sale, so this is the last change to buy these tracks before they're removed. You will still be able to download and play these in the future f you have already bought them, or are about to buy them. Warning! These are due to be taken down by March 2nd, but Sony and Microsoft manage the stores and so these songs could disappear sooner or be kept up for sale beyond the cut off date, if you want these then make sure you grab them in case they come down sooner than anticipated!
The following will be removed by March 2nd:
- Red Hot Chili Peppers - "Give It Away" (this one is also DLC for Rock Band VR on the Rift and will be removed from sale on that platform also!)
- Toto - "Rosanna"
Entire RBN DLC Delisted:The entire RBN catalog is coming down from the store on 360 and PS3. These were unofficially official DLC released for RB2 and RB3 and the catalog comprises of over 2000 songs at various price points. Again while these are being removed from future purchase, you'll still be able to play them on the previous gen's Rock Bands if you already own them. These songs will not be coming to RB4 so only buy them if you are playing on the older games. If these tracks do ever make it to RB4 then they will be purchasable on a different licence (not like official DLC which you get for free), or as was the case with the 10th Anniversary DLC pack, a select bunch of songs will be released for free for RB4. These songs are due to be removed by the end of the month.
