Rock Band

Awhile back i remember wishing that Guitar Hero integrated other instruments too, like if it you could add the Sing Star microphones, or Donkey Konga Drums. Now my dream is becoming a reality. Harmonix is working on Rock Band, a game that will come with 4 peripheral contoller options: Bass and lead guitar, a microphone, and drums. Fucking awesome.



"Because there's some serious financial clout behind this little venture, no more cover bands. It's going to feature the real deal. And not just the real deal: some record labels are already planning to release new content ( you know...songs) via this game, rather than radio or the internet.

No word on the individual songs, but we've got some artists: Allman Brothers, Joan Jett, Kansas, Nirvana and Wolfmother. Rigopulos says "We'll be covering a great breadth, from metal to classic rock to Southern rock to everything in between".

The game will be disc-based, but will also feature further downloadable content. And, as an extra treat, it'll feature online play. EA's David DeMartini says 'You could have one guitarist in Germany and another one in Texas, a drummer in New York and a singer from somewhere else, and they can play together online'."



Also, apparently the Gibson Explorer controller for GH on Xbox 360 comes with a port for a yet to be released effects pedal! yes!

Best.Shoes.Ever

Reef is coming out (came out?) with some sandals that have a 3 oz canteen built in:



The Dram—a common term for measuring one ounce of liquid—is the latest addition to Reef’s “thirst-quenching technology” line. Following the success of the Fanning sandal, which conceals a bottle opener in the heel, the Dram ups the ante on drunken-delinquent footwear. Features include a hidden plastic canteen in the heel with a screw cap that can be opened by using a key that is included, a miniature funnel to insure a clean pour, and a measuring bar on the footbed that shows how much booze is left in your shoe. The sandal also features a martini-shaker tread pattern.


Here's the Fanning model of sandal with built-in bottle opener:
