I WANNA ROCK!






So for Jer's birthday we decided that we should all get together and play some Rock Band. and let me tell you, it was a ton of fun. Wyatt started off the night with his very own drum solo. Luckily the song played the exact two notes that Wyatt was banging away at and he actually did a pretty dang good job. I'm pretty sure that any boy given the opportunity would love to bang on a pair of drums. I remember when I was younger I got caught several times pounding away on several different pieces of furniture with a pair of bread knives.
Anyway, as the night went on I got to participate on the drums, bass, guitar, and yes lead singer. I've always wanted to be a lead singer in a rock band and I was very happy to sing some Weezer. Unfortunately my skills on the drums were pretty pathetic.
So I think that it was a lot of fun having the whole family there playing together. Ryan dominated singing Radiohead and Jer surprised everyone with his skills on the drums.
<---I liked this picture because it looks like Elle has a mohawk, which would have been perfect for the occasion.
I wish I would have got more pictures of everyone playing together, but I did get a short 8 second clip of Wyatt busting out his drum solo. I hope you enjoy =)

YEAH ROCK BAND! That was lots of fun. We need to schedule our next gig, don't you think? Sad to say, I think you guys missed my favorite moment of the night, while Ryan was singing lead (you should hear him rock on radiohead. serious skills.) anyway, there is a part where little dots come on the vocals line and you're supposed to clap those, and ryan apparently didn't know that and just started shouting at each point - this description in no way does it justice. I was CRYING, I was laughing so hard. wish I had a video of that one! thanks for posting about it and reminding me how much fun we had!
