Probably any of the shit you like IRL. Weezer, MGMT, generic hipster band 01, etc.
I wouldn't be surprised to see an actual hipster band name themselves this because it's so "ironic" or whatever.

Also; somebody choose a song for me to learn on guitar. Assume I'm shit and can't do anything.

I was thinking what songs I tried to learn at first. It was The Hardest Button to Button and Burning Down the House. Since the only reason they would have not released Burning Down the House was to wait for keyboard, you might as well wait 'til RB3 since both of those are surely in the game.

Thanks. I'm working on Hardest Button. My fingers are so damn weak, it's an effort to hold a power chord kinda shape >:(

Well, Germany has not been that good lately...and with Balack's injury it gets even worse. USA would have given you a run for your money too.
Ballack doesn't matter. Our midfield is awesome, we don't need him. The only problem at the moment is our striker but that will be solved when it matters because Klose either plays awesome and scores goals like a mad man or he plays like in the last 2 years and he'll be out by then and a good striker will play. I'm so hyped for tomorrow :D

Im so hyped for this match too...Australia is such an underrated team. I will never forget how the referee stole them the match...and then....Italy wins the World Cup!
 
Yeah, it will be a tough match but I'm confident we'll win it.

Why didn't Ecuador make it to the World Cup, though? They played very good and got pretty far 4 years ago.

Seven Nation Army is also good because it's literally seven notes. Plus some chords leading into the chorus, and a "solo" where you just shift the pattern up an octave if you're lazy.

It is a pretty tough story...curiously for this qualifiers we had the best national team we have ever had, and as always we are almost invincible in Quito (altitude helps a lot I have to say), we have always beat Brazil and Argentina here since 1998...only last year we tied with brazil in a match that almost cost Dunga his position.

But, for some stupid reason, players did not like the coach...we lost to Venezuela in our first match in Quito...then 5-0 to brazil, 5-0 to paraguay...at the 5th game everybody finally found out that players did not want to play anymore with this coach (Luis Fernando Suarez)

Then, an ecuadorian coach was improvised and magically we beat Peru 4-0 and then we tied at Argentina in a wonderful match where Argentina tied in the very last minute (ruining a huge celebration that was going to take place here)...

We started to win matches and in a few months we were 3rd...then Venezuela beat us 3-0 at Venezuela and everybody started to blame the novice coach....

We lost some VERY important points and ridiculous things happened to us....at Colombia they beat us in the very last minute (like at Argentina)....and then Paraguay tied us, with 2 goals in the additional time at Quito (damn!)...

Despite that we still had to ONLY TIE with Uruguay at Quito to qualify...we ALWAYS beat them here. But something very stupid happened....

At 30 minutes of 2nd Half we finally scored our goal and people went nuts...Antonio Valencia went crazy with his goal and almost ran to the streets to celebrate....the celebration went toooo long....Uruguay kicked off....GOAL!!!!! 1-1

Then...in the additional time, a CLEAR hand in the area by a defender of them was not seen by the referee...EVERYBODY shouted and complained....guess what:

While everybody was complaining, the ball was still rolling, Uruguay counter attacked with 3 men against our keeper....PENALTY for them!

Forlan scored...the match was over....and our World Cup dream was shattered.

It is a pretty long story but I tried to tell it as short as possible because almost nobody here cares about football.

wow, USA has learnt to play soccer
Just imagine how good we'd be if more than 0.05% of the population gave a shit about it.

Seriously. You know it's bad when there's two college sports more popular than soccer.
I don't think that is a good comparison, considering that college basketball and football are both arguably more popular than their respective pro leagues (basketball more so than football).
 
Definitely depends on the area. College basketball was definitely more popular in CT when I lived there because UConn is great and we didn't have a pro team. Somewhere like LA, Chicago, etc I'm sure NBA is more popular. There is no way college football is more popular than NFL. NFL is the most popular sport in the country easily.

Most popular sports league, easily.
 
So I just showed up to tear down this wedding and the bride is just now getting here... Yay for long-ass paid breaks.

MLS sucks tough. And Im surprised at the huge amount of USA fans that are in South Africa

It's just because we have a large population, so the 1% of people in the country that like it looks like a large amount to smaller countries.

Sorry Space and Name, I definitely don't like Emperor. I guess I'm not metal enough, or something.

Crap! True be told, I didn't think you would like them.

Oh, and fucking England...



If any PS3 Gaffer wants a GD:RB export code be the first to PM me. You must provide the $10 and the game disc (at least I think so about the disc, you might be able to DL without it).
 
A computer just jizzed on my hand. I feel violated.

Son I am very disappoint. Which album did you try? Go through Prometheus twice... You gotta. If not, at least you tried. One day.

Also, LA is nice. Hitting up the kotaku party tomorrow night, not sure if anyone else here will be there.

Can't freaking wait till Tuesday. Well.. Time to go sit on the beach! :)

Thermal paste accident?
Naw. I went into a hotel restroom, and when the sink sensed my hand in the basin, white, pearlescent goo squirted onto it. It smelled oddly like soap. I was surprised, then intrigued.

I... I'm a little disturbed, even though I understand what's going on. Then again, if this will encourage more people to actually wash their damn hands, I'm all for it.

Meh, old news, we're waiting for pictures of the laser theramin peripheral now.
They need a new peripheral for Jethro Tull: Rock Band first.

That's fine by me, I've always hated it based on principal. I only ever whammy OD sections.

I should also mention a whammy bar on a guitar of that caliber would of course not have a locking nut and the strings would go out of tune every time you used it. It's definitely for the best.

That reminds me that I want to get a Floyd Rose on my Strat at some point. *swoon*

It'll probably only work in Pro Mode too, so don't worry.

I hope that's not the case. It'd be frustrating to have to have two separate sets of guitars for standard and pro modes.
 
What is the worst album in the game?

British Steel (Live)
Blood Sugar Sex Magik

Both are equally terrible, but for different reasons. BS is a good album that is absolutely butchered by a terrible live version, and BSSM just plain sucks.
