I wonder actually whether or not anyone else who has read The Surrogates:

The Surrogates graphic novel

Has seen the trailer for the movie version with none other than Hollywood's favourite baldy, Bruce Willis? It looks ok, I mean I will definately go and see it because I'm a massive fan of the comic but it looks like they've changed too much of the essential plot elements. Hmmm, I'll have to wait and see about that one.

Here's the trailer anyway;



Guitar Zero

Heh, I like what I did with the title. Anyway, I'm trying to figure out why everyones better at guitar than me. Then I realise they just practise, and I don't. it's not that I'm rubbish because I am actually pretty competent in most areas. I just start learning a new song and before long I just get to the solo and give up. Like now, for instance I'm learning "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)" byMetallica and I've got the rythm pretty much done, it's just the complicated parts I don't know yet.

Most of the songs I can play well are stuff by Muse and Queens of The Stone Age (probably my fave band) and conincedentally my mate plays the bass for all those sorts of songs which is cool but I guess the fact that we are looking for a drummer to play with makes me less bothered about playing now and wanting to get better. God knows I have enough time on my hands and by now I should be a hell of a lot better than I am.

I blame everyone else except me. Or something like that. No wait, I meant dammit I'll play hella'lot more now. Promise.

But I AM really good at Guitar Hero.
