"We are the eggmen! Woooo"
Oct. 31st, 2009 11:15 amLast night I and a bunch of friends played the Beatles: Rock Band.
Which is possibly the best game ever!
I'm not a huge X-Box or Play Station person, I'm not a huge computer game person in general - although I'm quite a addicted to Plants vs Zombies, play it! You won't be able to stop until you've finished all the Adventures! - any way... I'd never played before and I immedaitly sat in front of the drum set and my BFF and I (as zie picked me up from home and the whole evening (night! we played until 3 am!) played while we waited for the others to arrive.
Zie and I are huge Beatles fans and we have songs that we love to, ahem, harmonise (I cannot sing, but I love karaoke... not fun for the audience, alas) so we sang Getting Better, I am the Walrus (personal fave!) Hard Day's Night, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds and Revolution and then other people arrived (you know who you are) and we sang some of the same songs again (I relinquished the drums... now my regular instrument I can tell) for the guitar/bass (there's only one at the moment) and for solo singing.
Imagine a bunch of Grrls Belting out Beatles!
We also played the regular Rock Band, but it was so tame and lacked any kind of emotional pull compared to the Beatles: Rock Band.
It was awesome and I'm now so hoarse I can barely talk.
I'm also listening to my Beatles on loop.
"What's your deal with the Beatles?"
"My deal? You mean the WORLD'S!"
I leave you to be amazed by the quality of this cinematic trailer:
