Apparently there is this video game phenomenon called “Guitar Hero?”¬† I am just learning about it, but apparently its big.¬† And once you get good at Guitar Hero, the next logical step is to form your own “Rock Band,” which is another video game.¬† Last weekend, Uncle Ray brought his gear out and we played it at Mamaw’s.
Aunt Shel on vocals, BAGD on bass, Uncle Ray on guitar and Ian on drums.  The game shows the colors (notes) you are supposed to play on each instrument and you are judged on accuracy.
They did allright.¬† I was most impressed with Ian.¬† He rocks out.¬† He scored great every time.¬† Aunt Shel resorted to a few “lalala la la la lalala la” moments.¬† Uncle Ray actually plays the guitar, so we expected him to do well, which he did.¬† BAGD, by the way, is the quintessential bass player.¬† He just stands there, slightly rocking back and forth, eyes straight ahead, concentrating on his groove.
Due to the experience of this game, and Geetle and Pookie’s burning desire to play Ian’s drums….we are close to buying a Wii.¬† We’ll see which happens first…us deciding we are willing to spend the money, or us actually being able to find one.
