The Unforeseen Consequences of Rock
Well, since Luke and Chad have both already mentioned something about it (granted Luke’s was a previous jam session) I guess I should go ahead and throw down as well. Last night was the world debut of Unforeseen Consequences, who rocked out in Stockholm before touring around Europe for a few hours. Baby-faced front man Mic Stabbington provided the ear-splitting vocals. Saultydog laid down the rhythm and Fuente provided the bass grove while Nathan Implosio (damn you character limits!) kept time with his furious drumming of fury.
Unfortunately the tour was cut short before it reached international fame when Mic’s blaring rendition of Sabotage kept his wife from going to sleep upstairs.
WHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!! *cough* *wheeze*
When my fiancee had to bow out of our gaming session last night we wound up traveling to Luke’s house for some Rock Band. While I’m not sure my opinion of rhythm games has been flipped around completely like Chad’s I still had a lot of fun. I just think that what made the game so enjoyable for me was the social aspect – acting like a drum-beating lunatic along side my friends. I don’t think I’ll pickup Guitar Hero or anything (aside from the fact that I don’t own a console that would play it) but I’ll definitely be willing to throw down with my band mates again in the future.
I might pick up Guitar Hero 3… maybe. There’s no way I’m getting RockBand, I’d have to drop like $500 to get a system, game and set up to play. Fun game but not $500 fun.
