Should old acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind?
Rockband me looking almost as moody as real me.
Can’t say that 2008 is off to the best start, what with U of I being savagely beaten like a red-headed stepchild on national television and tomorrow’s forecasted high of 7 degrees. Even so, I have little to complain about, for I now have ROCKBAND. If you’ve had a chance to play the game, I’m sure you understand this last week’s lack of postings from me. Playing drums to The Who’s “Won’t Get Fooled Again” is a cathartic experience. Listening to your friend’s attempts to sing “Sabotage” by The Beastie Boys is devilishly entertaining. And those are just a couple of the gems on Rockband’s monster tracklist.
And so, here is a Rockband themed playlist for your listening pleasure. Here’s to hoping I’m allowed more than one ubernerd posting per year.
1. Pixies - Wave of Mutilation
2. Smashing Pumpkins - Cherub Rock
3. The Who - Won’t Get Fooled Again
4. David Bowie - Suffragette City
5. The Rolling Stones - Gimme Shelter
6. The Strokes - Reptilia
7. Yeah Yeah Yeah’s - Maps
8. Weezer - Say It Ain’t So
(Added 1/3/08 - Conan O’Brien sings “Sabotage.” Golden.)
