EFFECTS OF ROCK BAND: THINKING ONE CAN SING, THINKING ONE CAN PLAY AN INSTRUMENT, THINKING IT IS OK TO WEAR GUY-LINER AND SPANDEX, THINKING YOU ARE ACTUALLY COOL, THINKING GIRLS WILL LIKE YOU BECAUSE OF YOUR ROCK BAND GLOBAL RANKING, ONCE AGAIN THINKING YOU CAN SING, AND THE LIST GOES ON AND ON AND ON AND ON....
Now don't get me wrong, the game itself is amazing. It's a lot of fun and it is basically jsut a great way to kill time and work on your hand eye coordination. But when you start going to rock clubs and cafes and dudes are going around talking about how good they are at Rock Band there is most definitely a problem. Here's a story for ya... So there I am sitting in my favorite rock spot, the most popular band of the evening gets off stage and starts talking to some fans, when all of a sudden some jacked weirdo with two sleeves of tattoos and a pony tail runs up to them and starts telling them how he could play the song they just covered so much better then them... in Rock Band. The best part is the band got upset with the dude saying things like "Yo dude I'll rape you in Rock Band you dun even know." So now I'm there like... Are these guys seriously arguing whose better in Rock Band right now. Needless to say they both stormed out of the place staggering drunk back to the bands house for a Rock Band battle. (Quite possibly the lamest bunch of people I have ever met).
But now back on topic. We all know rock is the best kind of music, if you disagree I don't care because it is no matter what you say. And we all know that there is nothing wrong with loving rock and wishing you were a rockstar (because we all wish we were [right Nickelback?]). But now just because you LOVE the power of ROCK N' ROLL and you are the best Rock Band guy in your neighborhood, ya gotta remember that does not make you a rockstar. It doesn't give you carte blanch to walk the streets in spandex and eyeliner and wreck hotel rooms just because you couldn't beat "Killing them Softly" in front of all your fans.
YOU ARE NOT MUSICIANS GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEAD.
Actual musicians spend years of their life perfecting their craft, whereas you guys picked up a set of fake drum sticks and started hitting the pads, so now you feel that you're a world class drummer or bass player or whatever just because the game says you are.. You guys are just plain lame, you should all go apply for jobs at Zumies with all the other posers.
On that note I gotta go make me some lunch...
Adios
