Our 'Rock Band' needs some practice
The video music game Rock Band continues to be a popular item among gamers and the less technically inclined. Kai Ryssdal and some Marketplace rockers checked it out with Kevin Pereira from G4 television.

KAI RYSSDAL: Over the holidays a lot of us are probably going to hunker down with our families, do some quality hanging out, play some board games, maybe watch a DVD. Sad to say, that would be sooooooo last year of you.
This Christmas power chords are the new bonding mechanism. The video music game Rock Band 2 is one of the hot gifts this year. So we're going to reprise a segment I did last year about this time with our gadget guy, Kevin Pereira, from G4 television, and the original version of the game. A disclaimer before we roll this tape: I really can sing better than this.

Awsome.....There's nothing like public humiliation to let you know you're having a good time. And you know you all kept messing with it later.
