A Guitar Hero You Say?

I guess I am not the only person to attempt to learn how to play the guitar and fail miserably.

Although I'd love to tell my story, Jen Sala (writer for Orkut Media) has a better tale to tell.

I have a guitar. During my senior year in high school, Gwen Stefani and the band No Doubt were huge. Although I couldn't stand, well, still can't stand the nasal quality to her singing, I admired her aerobic live show. She looked like she was having a good time. I wanted to have a good time too. So I asked for, and got a guitar for Christmas. I was going to teach myself how to play. I practiced diligently, everyday. Then, about three weeks later, track practice started. Stupid sports foiled my dreams again.


Later on she mentions that after telling her friends her sad story, they tried to buy the guitar from her. Where as I would have put it up on Ebay (or Froogle) in a heart beat, Jen decided to keep the unloved instrument in a dark closet at her home.

Despite the fact that she could never be a pro guitar player, Jen discovered the next best thing--Guitar Hero for Play Station 2.

I wonder if they could integrate this with Dance, Dance Revolution?
