Last night, I spent 5 hours playing Rock Band at a friend's house. It was my first time playing this game in any form. I've managed to make it this far without ever even touching a Guitar Hero guitar.
We couldn't get anyone to "sing," so we all took turns between the drums and guitar. By the end of the night, we were on our way to becoming "easy" rock stars.
It is a fun game. It's more involved than Guitar Hero, so more people can amuse themselves at the same time instead of sitting around waiting for someone to hand over the "guitar."
Harmonix did a good job at creating a game that involves several people not trying to kill each other.
But more accurately, they did a marvelous job in convincing people that they should pursue music.
Just because you can match red to red does not make you a drummer.
Just because you can reach your pinky down that "holy" orange button does not make you a guitarist.
Congratulations, Harmonix, on instilling false hope into a new generation looking for their own version of Project Mayhem.

Thank you for being one of the few people in the world that I know who agree with me on this. I just think it's funny when people see you play guitar and wonder if you are good at guitar hero, or rock band. But I will admit it's good innocent fun, when you realize it's just that.
