Ruby, Ruby, Ruby!

Mike and I played the new Guitar Hero 3 game on his xbox 360 last night. I love new toys and we played with this one for four hours. My hands were cramped, my eyes were red, my heart was full of joy. Mike's even got a super spiffy new wireless guitar with KISS plastered all over it. What more could any man want! I knew more of the songs so this one is my favourite game so far. I'm not into all that classic rock and motorhead metal mallarky. I'm a postmodern indie girl with no real musical roots. I want to play some frivolous guitar pop from yesterday not just yesteryear. A bit of Strokes and Kaiser Chiefs was just the ticket. Step a few years back and there was Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins, Metallica and Stone Roses. I remember when these tracks were singles, it was a happy trip back to a (early!) teenage me. They've added some frivolous new extras like new venues, characters and costumes. I rocked out in some skin tight silver leather pants. It occured to me that I can now wear something like that in real life. Should I get some? answers on a postcard.
