Rock Band Is For Everyone

by on

I bet you could start an entire blog full of photos of crazy/confused people trying out Rock Band and Guitar Hero at Best Buy kiosks.

I bet you could start an entire blog full of photos of crazy/confused people trying out Rock Band and Guitar Hero at Best Buy kiosks. Here are two that I took today when we were swinging by to pick up a copy of Samba de Amigo for the Wii.

For the record, she was putting on Wanted Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi and then just sort of holding the drumsticks and "dancing." It would eventually fail out, so she'd just restart the song. Not long after this, I saw her arguing with her Old Man about prepaid cellular phones.

Jeff, it's probably not a good idea to take pictures of random girls in stores.

However, that doesn't change the fact it's funny as hell.

Taking pictures of teenage girls playing Rock Band 2? Isn't that against your parole, Jeff?

i would have to agree with the people above, although it is humorous, taking picture of random women in best buy cant be a good idea.

I can't really tell if that's a really short old woman with a wig or a really young short girl with a wig. It'd be funnier if she was old, though.

This is... kind of awesome. Though I would have to say that it is indeed a little creepy that you're taking pictures of random girls and then posting them on the internet, Jeff.

Are you telling me this isn't a cougar? Or do you mean "her old man" as in trailer-speak for "husband"?

To me it just looks like Blind Kenshi in drag.

How I love random posts like this.

But Giantbomb needs a new camera really bad, those pictures are as blurry as the line between "gaming enthusiast" and pervert.

For therecord, she was putting on Wanted Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi and thenjust sort of holding the drumsticks and "dancing." It would eventually fail out, so she'd just restart the song.

I would have PAID to see that hilarity.

Get video next time.  What is on her head, a blindfold? or something.  Please don't tell me girls in SF dress like this all the time.  In my town she'd be a stripper or a coked up clubber... well nevermind that's the same thing.

This looks great.  I already preordered the game and I can't wait for it to come out. With Banjo-Tooie also coming out, it looks like only Perfect Dark and GOLDENEYE are left.

I've seen a couple of 14 year old kids at my local best buy trying to play the drums. After failing out 4-5 times they went on a rant about how the game sucks and Guitar Hero is better. Needless to say, it was pretty damn funny.
