Aside -- Rock Band


The SABGers spent today playing Rock Band. I sat in on a song or two. As for our cri de coeur ("Board games are social") ... put a stake into it. Videogames have been social for at least a decade, but I now realize just how far they've come.

Me? I was playing Race. But having the game on in the background was nice. And I shall speak no evil of any game that uses Bowie (Suffragete City) and BOC (Don't Fear the Reaper). Downloading additional songs (from XBox Live) makes this a killer app, in my books.

Although it could use more cowbell. J said the next version should add Dance Dance Revolution mats for go-go dancing (groupies).

Alert!


I have beaten Guitar Hero III on medium.

That is all.
