thread's 1,000th reply!!! and we lead the league in views. I thought this wii thing was a kid's toy?

Do Beastie Boys and the other Talkie, I think it's a Red Hot Chili Peppers song, so you can take it to 3/84 on Expert Vox!)

Actually, I've been thinkin about trying vocals, so maybe I will start with these three. Then again, I'll probably get booed off the stage singing the first 30 secs of Eye of The Tiger.

Mega, thanks for the invite! Nice eclectic mix of songs, too. I hadn't done some of those in quite some time (and it showed on a few of them. Although a few are relatively newish to me, like The Who stuff.) Definitely shows me some songs I need to work on, though. Lots of fun!

DaleEct./Hurr, I tried to accept your invite from earlier but I guess you'd already gotten booked up with some other folks. Sorry for the delay I was just in a set, but it happens. Definitely send again, though, the next time you see me on.

Honey, I hope you and Sue have an awesome jam session! When I got your invite it was getting on to bedtime for me. Too bad since my connection had been solid all night. Ah well, maybe some other time and I can possibly help boost up that SLHB ranking a notch or two.

Yep, there's nothin' to it for Visions or that Beastie Boys song either, for that matter. So congrats! (And that sig is crackin's me up. Do Beastie Boys and the other Talkie, I think it's a Red Hot Chili Peppers song, so you can take it to 3/84 on Expert Vox!)

Don't forget testify ... set the mic down and grab a quick nap ha ha!

[HamsterRiot]

Well... I did it... but on expert vocals.

Hamster had been telling me how easy the vocals are, which is ironic considering the song is easily the hardest guitar, bass and drum song in the game. She even suggested I try barking like a dog through the whole song.

I'm a vocal n00b and had never sang a song in RB2 yet.

Decided to try it and ended up FCing it with the 6th highest score on the leaderboards... lol.

What a dumb friggin song.

Awesome!! ... soooooo, did you try the bark version yet?

dude, you're too kind, I was brutal out there. Just couldn't find any timing, sorry that couldn't have been fun for you. Thx for sticking it out.

[zarlor]

Dude, you were in the 90+ percentile the whole way, on friggin' expert guitar! I think my fingers just started bleeding just thinking about that. We were oh so close on the one song that failed out, to. I mean one more beat and we would have had it.

Honestly I had a blast, if for no other reason than I finally got to do some more jammin' online again. It'd been too long since I'd done that without my connection dropping out on me too often to be playable.

[megatron]

thx, but you were doing the heavy lifting that's for sure. sorry i scared you away, played with the Bees after & your vox would have been a great addition.

[zarlor]

Trust me, you did NOT scare me away. It was 11pm here and I'm used to a 5:30am wake-up call, so my body was strongly telling me to go get some sleep and when that happens my vocal technigue starts going out the window and starts getting raspy and that's just not good.

If nothing else the main reason I'm on this thread is that we've said here that it's all about having a good time irregardless of what level someone plays at and if they are doing well enough to slam dunk the score. Believe me I did not leave because I thought you were doing poorly (hell, I was beating myself up for my performance on some of those where I would normally do better!) and I won't hesitate to accept more invites from you (well, unless I'm already in somebody else's band of course. )

[megatron]

I know, I'm just having some fun at my own expense. I was ranked #21 on Black at one point, to only get a 90%...well, I'm sure you can imagine how I felt.
