I’ve Gone Cordless and I’m going to a party - a Guitar HERO Party.
RIGHT NOW I am sitting here with the Kramer cordless plastic guitar resting ON MY LAP - the one that comes with the Guitar Hero III bundle for PS2.
Basically, Adam almost never plays and I sit there staring at the thing constantly while I’m stuck to a cord and have to take my guitar off for EVERYTHING. The other day I’d had enough and strapped the sucker on, Adam calls his guitar Lil’ Awesome. The first thing I noticed about Lil’ Awesome was that it had a completely different feel on my person and while playing. Adam said that was because it was different guitar. He is a smart one that Adam.
Things I love about playing with the cordless plastic Kramer Guitar [in no particular order]:
- I can walk around the apartment while pressing the buttons to skip all the crap at the beginning, in layman’s terms I can now multi task.
- This may be TMI but I can go pee and wash my hands all whilst still wearing the guitar and not touch it until my hands have been dried off. BUT Adam went pee with it on too when we first got it and I remember I was jealous.
- Technically, I could turn around stand up off the exercise ball we use as a computer chair and play from here. This may sound awesome but it isn’t. The T.V is at one end of the room and the computer the other, this in actuality shows how small our apartment is or how good of range this thing has but I think I’m going with the first one on this.
- The fact that I am typing this post wearing the guitar.
- Being able to refill my coffee, adjust the heater, answer the buzzer, check de email, Twitter, Facebook… the list just goes on and on… but did I mention this is all while still wearing the guitar?
Sorry Adam but good luck getting the guitar back now. Maybe when you FINALLY get a band together and get to hard level we’ll chat.
Now, it is a really good thing that I finally decided to pick up that cordless guitar because I find myself with a seriously sweet invite tonight to attend a Guitar Hero party at- ten years of blogging extraordinaire - Tanya aka Netchick’s place, I can’t wait to meet her! Yes, I feel special. I am excited but nervous because she has the XBox 360 and I have never played one, I just know they get cooler guitars.

last christmas, i gave you a guitar
but the very next day, you gave it away
this year, to save me from tears
ill give you a goddam llamacorn
that is, i’ll give you a llamacorn before i let you dibs me on lil’ awesome ‘fwere battlin’, you just think again. what i mean ’s, no one has ever seen a llamacorn before, so the odds of me getting you one are really bad. and that means that i’m sayin’ the odds of you dibsin’ me on lil’ awesome are even worse than the llamacorn option. so you see what i’m sayin’.
you just think again.

Holy fucknuts. I just forwarded this post (from RSS feed) to my husband, thinking “At least he isn’t too the point of taking the guitar to pee” and then he read the post, was amused and stated that he had just done that today. My Lord. He is a goner, that one. He’s still not as good or as hardcore as you, but he is working on it.

Hate to be such the dork, but it’s a Gibson Explorer not a Kramer……
All GH guitars seem to be Gibbos for some reason.
Fact me ’till I Fart.

I would rule at that game if only it were called “Beer drinking hero”.

I feel really behind on time as I have yet to play guitar hero and only seen it couple times in real life. And I call myself a nerd? Hmmmm I need to go back think about that one.
