Present day- Friend gets his hands on the guitar hero video game and tells me how jealous he has been that he cant play like me. Im not that good really but I can hold a tune and I was fairly confident I had the co-ordination to hold my own if it came down to a duel. Anyway, he says he has been practicing on guitar hero and wants to challenge me to a game.
I was up for it even though I had never played the game before so he gave me a walkthrough of the controls and when and how to hit the controler and then we started the game. I could’t do it, it was too hard. He kicked my arse so bad it hurt! Turns out he can do every level on expert. I wondered how great a guitarist he would have been if he had spent his time practicing a real guitar instead of that silly guitar hero game. Probly fucking awesome.
