Moves: Spoon to ‘Rock Band,’ video games to Austin Red Box locations

The e-mail inbox overflows with good tidings today.

First off, four tracks from Austin heroes Spoon will be added to “Rock Band” as downloadable content next week (Tuesday on Xbox 360 and Wii, Wednesday for PlayStation 3).

The four tracks are “Trouble Comes Running,” “Don’t You Evah,” “I Turn My Camera On” and “Got Nuffin.”

As Patrick Caldwell points out in the Music Source blog, there’s also a P.O.D. track (“Alive”) on the way, but… meh.

The songs are $2 a pop.

It’s getting crowded over in “Rock Band” land. “Green Day Rock Band” is about to launch, June 8, too.

Separately, we just got e-mail notification that video game rentals are coming to Austin Red Box locations starting June 11. Rentals will cost $2 per night and games will be available for the usual suspects, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii.

And hey, it’s Friday. Let’s listen to one of those Spoon tracks.
