Though we have it on good authority that neither project will ever see the light of day, we're pushing for a Wii game. Just think: Simulated drumming without the need for that pesky nunchuk attachment.

You know, I think they'd be better off with a Guitar Hero/Rock Band release.

I agree. Then when playing drums you're only allowed to use one arm.

Oh wow, that was a bad joke. Rick Allen is still better than alot of the drummers you see out in the new bands today. Who cares if he has one arm?

Pretty much anything from the 80s and early 90s is better than "rock" in the 2000s, even Poison (yes I went there). The last 10 years has been just plain awful for all kinds of music.

The last ten years have been anything but awful for all kinds of music. There's more creativity in the last decade if you know where to look than in any of the mainstream 80's and 90's recordings that people like to reminisce about.
Just because Metal took a dive (I could argue against that as well, but I'll agree for the sake of argument - I'm not really a metal fan anyways) and Hip-Hop became about hedonism doesn't mean there haven't been AMAZING bands sitting outside the limelight.
Sorry for the off-topicness, just had to counter that bold statement.
@ Hearo - Agreed, it was in bad taste... Though it can't get any lower than a certain handicapable dog joke and picture combo a few months ago.

Now, that's better. There are some 'new' bands I enjoy listening to.

There are lots of good unsinged bands out there putting out music. Almost everything on the major labels this decade sucks. If you can't see that your part of the problem.

The only thing I miss about my arm is not being able to simulate cutting bread by waggling the wii-mote.

Really? The guy loses an arm in a tragic car accident, still turns out to be a helluva drummer, and you are going to joke about it? So much for being a reputable website. Totally classless.

I know, I have a hard time believing how far we're pushing the edge on this one. Uh oh, I feel another one coming on! Batten down the hatches!

Yes, this is the first time someone has made a one-armed drummer joke in regards to def leppard. I was shocked--SHOCKED!--to read it as well.

Slipknot? I lose track of how many members they have.

Upvoting mts--and I like Def Leppard--but I'm a total sucker for all forms of the one-armed drummer jokes. Though there's five dudes in that picture--shouldn't that be nine arms, and sucks?

The drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm, the drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm, the drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm, the drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm, drummer from Def Leppard's only got one arm!!

I envision a Wario Ware, Inc.-style minigame compendium.
- Let It Go: drop TVs, guitars and other items out of a hotel room window onto unsuspecting passersby.
- Billy's Got A Gun: see if you can out-draw Rick Allen, who is using his feet.
- Photograph: take as many pictures of scantily-clad models as you can before time runs out.
- Pour Some Sugar On Me: get all of the Splenda into Joe Elliott's tea before he wakes up.
- Work It Out: complex maths puzzles with a rock twist... i.e. you have eight lines of cocaine, a groupie snorts two and your road nabs a third, how many are left?

Should have used the picture of the actors from the VH1 movie. I don't think anyone would have been able to tell the difference, honestly.
