Sorry for the bad pun but sometimes you just have to right?

 

Last night the kids went to bed the masters was over and I finished watching Full Metal Jacket (awesome movie BTW) I decided that I would try my hand at the drums on Rock Band.  In our little gathering I do not play drums, My wife and 1 of our friends do. I play Bass and have been moving up the Guitar Difficuilty to the point where I can finish some songs on Expert. I am a decent Hard guitarist. That being said, I do want to be able to play the drums so I decided to set it up and create a new band and get to drumming.

 

I started it up and found out that I am not as bad as I thought I would be. I managed to finishe completely my first two venues with only have difficuilty with one song, Time We Had by The Mother Hips [will come back to insert link]. The wierd bass drum pattern and the change of the cymbal snare combo had me thrown all off.  I am finding that it is more fun then I initially had with the drums when I first started as well.

 

I thought that song was hard and had told my wife about it because I had never heard the song.  So I fired it up for her and wow I was impressed, she got a 98% on Medium and had to go at it on hard. I was not just going to sit there so I powered on the guitar and played it on hard with her. She got 84% and I got  92% and I decided I could do the song on expert so we went at it again and and She got 86% on hard again and I got 96% on expert.

 

I will be back at it again this evening to continue the world domination. 

So for the third time I have officially gotten the red ring of Death. For those that don't know this is basically when you xbox 360 decides to crap out on you, leaving you high and dry. The good news is that it is still under warranty from Microsoft and will be fixed for nothing. The bad news is I wasn't able to play in the LS Left 4 Dead night and will probably miss a Gears and Beers night tomorrow. Hopefully I can borrow a system for Sunday night as I play in a Gears League and don't like letting people down.
