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.

Totally
Awesome.

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?

@ Milkman:
Shh, maybe "they" won't find out about it.

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.

Leopard print heels...srsly?  And how do you not want to actually drum?

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.

I think Jeff just violated the restraining order against him.
