We're currently playing Guitar Hero 2 (PS2), the most recent song being Gemini, played by Matt and Lemming. Everything was going dandy, until someone added a huge number of notes to Lem's side, but luckily after spending half the song without star power, they had some and pulled through. The switch is on now, and Mason and Gary are up, playing Sweet Child of Mine. More reports on this shortly, but I'm going to post and see if anyone is watching the RSS - comment if you have song requests for us, or whatever :)
The song is going well. Both people are sitting, which is making the crowd go wild. Also, there is star power a-plenty, but no-one dares use it! Max enters the field and tries to get Mason to deploy star power (or maybe was just distracting him), but it fails. No worries, they will finish the song easily. While they are working on that, I've a question for anyone who knows how this sort of thing works: if I update a blog post, via hitting edit and adding more text, then posting again, does that show up well for people using a RSS feed? I know for someone sitting on the page they would probably have to refresh it to see anything. So how do you get live blogging to work? A post followed by a long sequence of comments on it? Or is there a cleaner way to do it via the blog code.
Song complete! A "Delightful set impreses the blackout bar", with a 3 stars rating. Here we go with the next song pick, same players... Heart Shaped Box, with G on the bass.
Max is being a pain, he is way too excited because of all the people visiting. He is a "people" dog, always performs his TAIL ATTACK when the front door opens. He also demands people's attention, needy doggie... He does "try" to scare people away when the door bell goes off, bark like crazy, I suppose he gets a little bit of credit for trying... But as soon as the door opens, the dog transforms into a completely useless watchdog.
Hmmm, no ice cream anywhere to be found in this house, there is a good reason why there is no stock. The last time we had ice cream, the left-over was discovered possibly "years" after. How can ice cream go bad you may ask? But but but it is true! I suppose anything is possible.
"Just let it flow. Geeze." Never let common sense, grammar, or any semblance of rhetoric get in the way of good writing. That, and never let dog slobber distract you from screaming weeblies or nailing the trembolos. But it's okay if you always seem to miss the last note -- everyone does that.

I'm back! Gary and I did a two song set: Misirlou and YYZ. We nailed YYZ with 5 stars and it was excellent. Misirlou I don't recall as well - we were trying to show G the way some notes don't need a strum to play them: they have a pure white top, rather than a white top with an outline. However, this wasn't really obvious for Misirlou because I was playing lead, which is the only one that has a few of those notes.

A song about boobs.

And we're wrapping up because people have work tomorrow! See you all later!
