Guitar Hero World Tour Saves Rock and Roll February 24, 2009

AJ has become quite a convincing drummer playing both Rock Band and Guitar Hero World Tour.  The drums on those two games actually require you to simulate playing the real instrument vs. just hitting the Wii-mote and color-coded buttons on guitar and bass or merely getting the pitch right on vocals.

So what’s my stepson banging away on?  Coldplay?  TI?  Some weird-ass band I’ve never heard of and can’t understand their lyrics?*

Steely Dan’s “Bodhisattva.”

Now, if I can just get him turned onto Tom Waits and Johnny Cash…

Or even Marillion.  I think Marillion’s overdue for an American hit.  Last song of theirs I heard on American radio was “Hooks in You.”

*And get the hell off my lawn!
