It looks like you won't be playing "Stairway" on the video games Guitar Hero and Rock Band.
Led Zeppelin, one of my all-time favorite bands, has turned them down.
Good! Because I don't like Guitar Hero. What a stupid game. I've never played it before but I still don't like it.
I play a real guitar (granted I'm far from a guitar hero) and I think it would be so much better if kids spent their time learning to play a real instrument than wasting time on the dumbed-down video game version.
I've also heard several small-time bands in the local music scenes complaining that Guitar Hero is taking away their business. Yes, that's right. Some bars are switching to Guitar Hero nights instead of live music.
What a travesty!
So support your local music scene and DON'T go out to Guitar Hero night! Wait for the real guitar heroes to grace the stage.
My brother plays guitar hero, he and his family that is. They have game night, family fun. Now if it weren't for GH, what would they do?
ReplyDeleteHe has of the new and old GH games. I tell you what, you just aren't any fun at all.
You are like anti everything!
Sorry I have not been on in a while to read your lovely blog... I saw on u-tube a video of a real guitar hero playing the game. he was trying to play his song that he Jams on ( yes they showed him in concert bangin it out) and someone took him to a store and he tried to play his song... He said that the game sucked and was harder than actually playing a guitar and couldn't believe people loved it so much.. they show him getting booed off the stage, in the game like 3x again playing a song he does all the time.
ReplyDeleteOh and firefighter how bout board games instead cards. reading, play tag, come one this is not the only game out there.I am glad they were DENIED stairway
Ha! That's a good story Mr. Anonymous. Firefighter, maybe your brother and his family could sit around and spend the time learning to play a real guitar, or board games and such like Mr. Anonymous said. Or they could try reading a book and discussing it.
ReplyDeleteNobody does that kind of stuff anymore. it's just a game for God's sakes. Look at the money made off of these games. The US economy stays afloat of off the money made by people buying this crap.
ReplyDeleteIf it weren't for these games how would working familys where mom and dad both work ever bribe their kids into being good? Kids misbehave no game night LOL. OK so there is a bad part to these games but millions of American familys would be out of luck if they didn't have games to bribe their kids with.
Just for the record, I don't own a game system of any kind. I think they are evil! Just kidding not evil just a waist of time and money.
Just like yesterday, I take the family out to the lake or some thing like that for fun.
Next month we are going to an aquarium and the CREATION MUSEUM in Cincinnati.
The Creation Museum presents a “walk through history.” Designed by a former Universal Studios exhibit director, this state-of-the-art 70,000 square foot museum brings the pages of the Bible to life.
A fully engaging, sensory experience for guests. Murals and realistic scenery, computer-generated visual effects, over fifty exotic animals, life-sized people and dinosaur animatronics, and a special-effects theater complete with misty sea breezes and rumbling seats. These are just some of the impressive exhibits that everyone in your family will enjoy.
Holy Smokes! Don't tell me you are going to the Creation Museum! What a load of anti-science, anti-intelligence crap that is! You have to write a blog post about it when you get back!
