These Songs Need to Be In Rock Band

If it were up to me, I’d put these songs in. However, I may not have thought some of them through. I was going to list some of The Doors songs, but later realized they don’t have a bassist but instead a keyboardist. That wouldn’t work in the game I guess.

Full Albums:
Metallica – Master of Puppets (or just the Master of Puppets song, Welcome Home (Sanitarium), Battery)
Nirvana – Nevermind (or just Smells Like Teen Spirit, Lithium, Come As You Are) (In Bloom is already in the game)
Pink Floyd – Dark Side of the Moon

Songs:

Got a Crush on “Crush”

crushAmerican Gladiatorsginareddresssf2

American Gladiators is back! It was one of my favorite shows as a kid. Just something about seeing an underdog push their hardest and win. There’s one gladiator that stood out to me. Her name is Crush. She’s the only one I find attractive, so yeah that makes her my favorite. She’s got that girl next door kind of look despite her huge arms and legs and her ability to smash my face in. Her real name is Gina Carano.

Turns out before this she was a muay thai kickboxer and MMA fighter. I watched one video which I guess is her debut fight in Thailand. If you thought girl boxers were tough, muay thai is crazy. Check out the clip.

Post Xmas

Another non eventful Christmas has past. The only thing I’m enjoying is the time away from work. But then I look at my smaller paycheck and feel sad. I got a Sony PSP and Rock Band as late presents and am currently enjoying those. Rock Band drums are great! Typically during the Christmas break I watch a lot of movies, and this year I did catch a few. I was able to see I Am Legend, Walk Hard, and Sweeney Todd. All of which I really really liked.
