I'm not much of a gamer, but that sounds pretty cool. There's definitely a lot of depth and diversity in the themes that could be mined, lyrically and visually speaking. I might check it out.

Count this loser in. "If I had a dollar, for every ace I've drawn..."

Actually, the game based on the pinball game from the movie sounds cool.


Jamming with the band........not so much.
I can do that with my guitar and my stereo.

There's always one...


See if you can figure out who it is in this thread.

 

[yoyoyoseph]

I can imagine levels where you have to score on Shakedown Street...

 

[Hunterdog]

.....andd for each one, you have to find a new keyboard player...


[ouch, sorry]

 

[rdnzl]

....and they all sound the same.

 

[Hunterdog]

....and they all sound the same.

........I think it would be a challenge to find 3 more disparate players trying fill the same role in any major rock band.......


Pig, for his frontman, harp playing role..

Keith, for his virtuosity..

Brent, for his B3 lovin', freakin' Michael McDonald-esque background vocals....

They all brought something different, and I can't think of another situation like that...................hmm

So why does the music all sound the same?

Interesting observation........Obviously art is subjective......


[Am I having to say that ?]

 

[Phalanx200bc]

LOL!!! before you know it they'll make GD neck ties for now rich hippies/yuppies


Ohh **** wait a sec....

 

[jabhead]

More importantly... I just read where Rhino is releasing all 22 shows from the europe 72 tour in a 60 Cd box set. Pre-orders are starting soon and readying for June release.

It doesn't.

That was easy enough.

 

[lhallam]

So why does the music all sound the same?

Because you haven't listened.

 

[dB]

So why does the music all sound the same?

because the music goes places you're incapable of...

i think it's "if i had a gun for every ace i have drawn"....

I'm not much of a gamer, but that sounds pretty cool. There's definitely a lot of depth and diversity in the themes that could be mined, lyrically and visually speaking. I might check it out.

Why would anyone comment on a thread about a band if they didn't like that band, when the thread has nothing to do with opinions about that band, unless their only intention was to be a dick?

i think it's "if i had a gun for every ace i have drawn"....

Lots of folks hear that song wrong, myself included. For years I thought the second line was "I could own a town the size of Babylon", which actually makes more sense to me
