Shocked, shocked I tell you

It's been five days since I posted this, and not one person has bit on the blatant Spinal Tap reference.  What's wrong with you people?  Get on the job!  :)

heh, that's exactly what I came to post myself.

I think people who DONT get the reference are the anomaly now.

I remember in the early 80s there were music stores selling musical-instrument knobs that were knock-offs of the ones found on Stratocasters, Les Pauls, etc., marked from 0-11 instead of 0-10. Wish I had availed myself of some.

Have you noticed that the amp in Guitar Hero goes to 11?

Every time I think about buying a game console and a copy of Guitar Hero, I start thinking guilty thoughts about the fact that I own a real guitar I haven't picked up in many years.

Guitar Hero has even less to do with real guitar playing than Dance Dance Revolution does with dancing.

Still fun as hell.

If I were buying for a game, though, I'd target Rock Band. It's the better implementation (by the -original- GH and GH2 developers, who specialize in music games) and has much better social appeal.

Well, see, this is exactly why I expected SOMEONE would make some kind of counter-reference. :)
