I can't believe a "Would you fuck a chemo patient?" poll was overlooked.

Agreed. And I haven't listened to the show yet.

Guitar Hero

As a guitar player for 12 years I was a bit confused about the allure of Guitar Hero/Rock Band. Granted, I could be practicing instead of playing but it's a great way to "jam" with pals who don't play any real instruments. I won't spend 3 hours on my own trying to perfect a song but it is still good fun. And I've just started to teach one of my friends how to play a real guitar because he enjoyed playing Guitar Hero so much.

But there are those who will practice Guitar Hero till their fingers cramp up to score 100% on expert on every track... that just seems like a wasted opportunity to use that time or at least half of it on learning the real instrument. Get a cheap guitar for the cost of the game and get learning.

You don't see girls swooning for guys who can score 100% on Guitar Hero - but guys who play real guitar score 100% of the time. HIIII HOOOOOOOOOO - damn, I should trademark that.

MS P.S.: I think The Beatles on the radio is to do with the re-issue of all their albums that are now digitally remastered. The Rock Band thing is also a big deal but everyone is going nuts over the better sounding quality of the albums.

Im disappointed Keet and Danny didn't do the " early carlin was ... dane cook is a... lenny bruce bla bla mort saul" sort of thing since they're both really into studying it. It would have been interesting.

Hopefully Danny will be on again and he can share more comedy stories. I think he will be.

I'm not even a great guitar player or drummer, not on Brian's level at least, but I never got past the hurdle of rock band and guitar hero seeming to me like half-assed fantasy lameness.

I mean, all video games are half-assed fantasy in a way, but at least with GTA I was running shit down and shooting shit up while avoiding actual medical or funeral expences. With pretendy, plastic, baby guitars where's the advantage over real, sexy, asskicking guitars?

The misconception with Guitar Hero always baffles me. It's not my thing but I still get that people play it because it's a fun game. Asking someone why they don't learn to play a real guitar instead is like asking me (or Keith) why we don't go the firing range, learn martial arts or how to save the universe from techicolor aliens instead of turning on the Xbox. It's a game, just like any other.

Ya it always seemed strange to me that people put Guitar Hero in a different category.

People who play Madden are hitting coloured buttons on a hunk of plastic to throw a football instead of going outside and actually PLAYING football.

People who play Guitar Hero are hitting coloured buttons on a hunk of plastic to make a song rather than actually playing a song.

I think the disconnect is that the hunk of plastic you see them holding resembles an object when really it's a controller just like any other but it's in a different shape.

If the Nintendo Wii comes up with a football attachment maybe people will also treat my Madden example as equally ridiculous.
