To me it seems like when people start liking a band just because it's popular, rather than actually liking their music.
However I can't be one to judge because I was a musical retard before I played GH3. I'd barely even heard of Metallica, but GH3 got me into Guitar and Rock Band got me into drums and now I play both electric guitar and drums a lot and I own all of Metallica's albums :v:
Also I've decided to get the Ibanez RGT6EXFX (the one with the EMGs) With a bit of hard saving I could probably get it by January or Febuary.
New decision:

I really like the chameleon blue for it's craziness and extraordinary-ness, but I feel black might be a safer option, just incase the Chameleon isn't quite what it seems in the pictures.
The chameleon blue looks awesome, but I'd say go for the black.
im bored, anybody got any fun metal riffs?
Creeping death, the riff just after the intro, or pantera well grind that axe for a long time.

[QUOTE=NotYou3;17061925]i don't care as long as they listen to other stuff by the artist and not just that one song
"hey do you like metallica"
"yeah their song One is awesome"
"yeah but it's not as good as master of puppets"
"what's that"[/QUOTE]

"yeah but it's not as dont cry, november rain, civil war etc."

I think it's a great way for people to discover music they normally wouldn't have discovered.
Example: Not all children grow up with the knowledge of bands like Metallica, even if Metallica is one of the most known metal bands out there. I don't really see the problem with people only listening to One either, I think it's a great song, and if a lot of people appreciate, GOOD!
wear a shirt when its really hot and your playing guitar, or your guitar gets covered in armpit sweat and goes all smelly :crying:
You could wipe it after wards.

I made a really long post on this in the GMF, but never checked to see their reply, so I'll just repost it here
...I can't find it. lol
Anyways, I think it's lame. The only thing that Guitar Hero and Rock Band have managed to create is fake music fans.
Tons of kids that rock the Black Sabbath or Megadeth shirt but they haven't a clue what Electric Funeral or Last Rites/Loved to Deth are.

This is my biggest complaint about band t-shirts in general, especially AC/DC and Black Sabbath. I have a Black Sabbath shirt, which I wear because I like the band. I know a handful of people who have the same shirt, but who only know Iron Man and War Pigs, and maybe Paranoid if they played Guitar Hero III. They probably couldn't name anyone from the band except Ozzy, not that knowing the members' names has anything to do with enjoying the music.
Then there's the AC/DC shirt. I see too many people walking around with an AC/DC shirt or hat, not because they like the band, but because they like the image.
Well the AC/DC shirt phenominomonomnom is because Walmart and Target have been selling the things like hotcakes for almost 5 years now
Same goes for Metallica, Beatles and Bob Marley shirts

My cousin has about six Bob Marley shirts. He actually listens to him, but it's still a bit excessive.
i'd get 6 bob marley shirts if they were all cool
most marley shirts are just some Jamaican colors with his face and a quote from Three Little Birds
i cant count how many times i've talked to someone about music and then it slowly sinks in that they dont know jack shit
now it always blindsides me really hard when i meet someone who actually knows what the fuck theyre talking about.
too bad its always about some indie band that i dont know and nobody gives a fuck about
I've got one friend who likes the exact same music I do but I don't really see him very often
:C
I don't have any friends that like the same music I do.
:C
Anybody who really likes Black Sabbath is definitely a friend of mine...
;D

im tired of people just naming songs from guitar hero and rock band because i talk to my friends at school about metallica and some person out of the blue says"hey,ONE is awesome"then we say"we think cyanide is better"then they say "thats not a metallica song"then he says we aren't true metalheads then i end up getting suspened for beating the shit out of the little prick.
What a dick move, beating someone up because they insulted your metalheadness. Not cool.
Also, I have some crappy beat up banjo, anyone know where I could get some replacement tuning knobs

I really hate it when people think only they should be allowed to enjoy a band/artist because they have done so for a long time or because they know everything about them.
It's really elitistic and egocentric.

Uhh... right
Oh damn, the Chameleon Blue Ibanez is obsolete, so only black is available. Oh well, at least that means I can get my local guitar shop to order it in and I can pick it up. I've never trusted the postal system to deliver a guitar to me.
