Geeks rocking out!

OK, so as you know I recently bought a guitar and obviously it has not been long enough for me to be rocking out with my new “real” guitar… BUT… we did buy Rockband this weekend… OMG…

My living room, which is normally a serene place that allows me enjoy my favorite SciFi show in peace, has become a den of rockers… Sometime late Saturday night I looked around at all the empty beer bottles and empty pizza boxes (literally about 15 empty boxes , and more beer bottles then I will admit too) while we were rocking out in the Virtual Snake Pit venue located in Los Angeles.

We got the complete Rockband set (drums, guitar, and mic) and a friend brought over a guitar hero guitar so we could do the bass as well.  It was beyond AWESOME!

Currently, our band has 260,000+ fans, and we have been invited to play large venues in multiple continents…

If you have kids that are interested in playing music, especially the drums, or if you are interested, or just want to have a really great time with the family and friends… go out NOW and buy rockband.  It is TOTALLY worth it.

As a side note, they claim that on expert levels you are actually playing the drums….
