Nickelback's Chad Kroeger wants you to stop playing
Guitar Hero and would much prefer you pick up a real instrument, he
recently told MTV. "It's tough to find other bands out there, because either they're making a record, or they just got done touring," he said. "So kids: Start rock bands. Set down the '
Guitar Hero,' learn how to play an actual guitar and start a band, because it's hard to find more bands to put a solid rock-and-roll package together, to get out there." You hear that, kids? If you don't play
Guitar Hero, you can play real music with Nickelback! Personally, we'd rather play the game.
We'll admit the allure of
Guitar Hero is probably greater than actually learning how to play guitar. Because the learning curve isn't as steep with the game, and with
Guitar Hero including such a wide range of music (well,
not all music) that is sure to please just about anybody, we can't say we're surprised that the kids would be looking to Activision's music game for their jollies.
