The Onion rocks - as always!

For [livejournal.com profile] femmequixotic and other Harry Potter fans:

Final Harry Potter Book Blasted for Containing Spoilers


For my fellow Guitar Hero geeks: Sousaphone Hero


And, for those of us that got into cheesy boy bands (Backstreet Boys, N'Sync, New Kids, ad infinitum ... not Fall Out Boy, Kellie!): No one admits to singing, writing #1 single

Haha. I love the Onion. Have you seen the commercials for the new reality show concerning boy bands? It's called Misson Man Band from the same channel that is putting creepy old man Scott Baio on TV again.

Oh no ... I didn't hear of that! I don't know whether to laugh or cringe over that concept.

It's bad enough that they have the music industry's versions of "The Bachelor" going on ... I guess they wanted to put together some boy band has-beens to see how they'd handle being around each other.

Holy crap, I came across your page VIA friends. I cannot believe they made that sausaphone hero. That is the greatest news I have heard all week, more like month. I think I want it!

Heh - if they did make a Sousaphone Hero, I'd probably get it for my brother as a joke gift!

What's especially cool, though is that a group of SF computer geeks managed to rig their Guitar Hero controllers, so they could play music through their computers.
