You just have to wait for someone else to commit suicide first.

This news story made me laugh: Tommy DeCarlo, a Home Depot worker, achieved his life-long goal of becoming a rock band singer after his daughter posted him singing along to Boston songs. The band noticed and hired him as their new singer, cause the original guy, Brad Delp, killed himself in 2007.

DeCarlo made his debut onstage at a tribute concert to Brad Delp last August. It was the first time he sang with a band in his entire life. (link)

Pretty crazy…or pretty desperate.

Now I just have to wait until Tommy kicks the bucket so they can bring me on.

Happy Tuesday!

Hey, so what did you guys do this weekend? Nothing much? Yeah, same here.

Except yesterday, between 11:00am to 4:30pm. We finally took on and accomplished the Endless Set List (on hard!) on Rock Band. Yeaaaaaah bitches! 58 friggin songs on guitar and drums in a row–with only one break, where we sliced some cheese and crackers to munch on. Very classy, I must say.

Now all I have to do is learn how to play on Expert and then we can earn our platinum status.

Please? I mean, I already know all the words cause I used to lip-sync this by myself in elementary school.

OMG. Forget chocolates and roses for Valentine’s Day. I want a real Halo 3 laser tag gun.

Just kidding. The plasma guns are lame. I’d like the Rocket Launcher or that gun that douses your opponents in flames. Wait, what? Only the plasma rifles and pistols are available?? What the fuck. Those are the worst guns to use when you are slowly losing a battle and your team mates are taunting you over their headsets but luckily, you’ve already got them on mute.

Whatever. I can’t play anymore because a certain someone says I have to keep practicing Rock Band so we can finally finish the Endless Playlist.

Rock Band

Okay, I get posting videos of yourself getting 5 stars on Expert on a Metallica  Black Sabbath song on Rock Band, but playing something on Easy?

W.O.T.

I just found the perfect Valentine’s Day gift:

The Ultimate Rock Band Drum Kit
A look at the process of converting a professional drum kit for use as a Rock Band game controller.

Awesome! Now all I have to do is buy a real drum set… And space to fit it all in the apartment. Hmm…

Metallica fucking sucks. I don’t care if you like them, your mom like them, you once knew them, you ARE them and especially that my once good friend P used to heart them to death, they still fucking suck.

First, I don’t enjoy their music.

Second of all, that whole anti-Napster thing was not cool.

Third of all, where the hell are they now? I hope they’re gone forever. I don’t care.

But most of all, here’s why I hate them:

THEIR SONGS ARE TOO FUCKING LONG.

I’m sure if you’re obsessed with them, then this is like the best thing evar, meaning you can devote like 7 minutes of your life to listening to each stupid, kind-of-depressing and so-dark-it’s-cheesy music, but when you’re trying to get through one of their songs on Rock Band because otherwise, you fail your tour and can’t get to the next level, it’s UTTERLY RIDICULOUS.

DO YOUR BALLADS REALLY HAVE TO BE A MINIMUM OF 6 MINUTES? Do you really have that much to say?? Exit light, enter night? Okay, exit light, enter night again. And again? REALLY?

So at first, I was like, oh, c’mon Moye, you’re being ridic. Give them a chance. Like how thousands of retarded fans have. But after torturing ourselves through the first 4 minutes of “Ride the Lightening” and then ultimately failing after a really complicated drum solo (really?? was a drum solo necessary??), I’ve had enough. Lars, you fucking suck.
