Oh and I think our Wii name will show up as "Skippo" My player's name is Twiggy and the hubby's name is Skip Laser - not sure if that part shows up.

And I assume everyone knows about the vocalist's gremlins: i.e. can't always make overdrive work when you want it to, no matter how much you coddle it

dress2kill - yes, it was nice to have the day off and have time to play. Even got to spend time with all 3 instruments!

Slather - I will add you next time I'm on

[Slather]

Right on, Alfred We're playing now - yet to see anyone from here, but I know sometimes it can take a while for peeps to show up.

[MAINEiac]

Slather, just added you.

If someone chooses a song I don't know, I'll either drop out for the song (so as not to screw up your score) or I'll fake my way through as best I can, if you're not picky about scores.

I'll go on my skype soapbox and say that most of us have skype running on a laptop/netbook/PC while playing so we can talk/text. It is so much easier for everyone and all you have to do is say, "I don't know this one... can we pick another" instead of dropping out

Welcome to the thread... it is a great group of people to play with!

Adding you tonight. Welcome to the family.

[polkanuns]

Been a few since I checked in here; doesn't mean I set the Squier down though!
Welcome new faces! Don't feel any score/performance pressure -- we are just here to have fun!!
(Don't think I would have made it as far learning the Squier Pro Guitar without the laid back gameplay/score attitude of peeps from this forum)

Parsed through and added a bunch:

Sally1er
JC2003
Laalaa
Baroness
JOey-Cage: nice Ken-chan avatar
EagleEye: u've been in my Wii, never have showed up on the Friends List


OH, YEAH ... SECOND THIS:

Slather, welcome to the OMB. I will add you next time I'm on as well. I will second (and third and fouth) some of the things already posted.

Most people do not care what level you play at, or what the score is. It's all about playing with other people. If you have to go Easy/Med. then do it. Gold stars are nice, but the full band experience is far better imo.

dlcquickplay.com is a great site to compare dlc and meet other friends to play with.

Skype is the best way to communicate while playing with others, whether im-ing with them or talking with a mic.

Looking forward to jamming with you and hubby soon.

We are all too familiar with all of the bugs in the wii, including vocal OD. That's why skype is so good, to let the others know what happens when your wii craps out and you have to reset.
