BETTER OR WORSE THAN GUITAR HERO?

Friday, October 30th, 2009 at 12:40pm by Axl Rosenberg

The lovely ladies at Reign in Blonde found the below video, demonstrating a new shirt which you can play like a gee-tar. Aside from being incredibly dorky, it’s also thirty bucks, which I guess is about what you’d pay for a shirt at a big-time rock show anyways (actually, thirty bucks at a big time rock show might be a steal).

Anyway, if I was about nine, I’d probably think this is really cool. Of course, when I was nine, I also thought those shirts that change colors were really cool. But if all your friends are virgins and you want to really impress them, you can order the shirt from Think Geek.

By the way, with reference to my headline: no one should worry that these shirts mean kids will stop learning to play real guitar. That is an absolutely retarded concern. So just remain calm, okay?

    wow… I’m kinda ashamed in myself for watching that whole video. I should have quit when the large emo asian started dancing.

  6. Sophus says:

    But Axl, how will kids learn to play real instruments when they’re too busy playing their t-shirts?!

    On another note, how come there’s a guitar shirt and a drum shirt, but the bass player was playing an actual bass? What the hell, Think Geek? Why do you hate bass players?

      I don’t think he knew the song anyways. Its ok. There is some conspiracy against bassists. Thank God for Jaco Pastorius.

    • cosk says:

      how do you figure they would get bass out of a shirt….. where do you put the kind of speakers that would have bass………… in a t shirt?

    asians should just stop donning the emo look. looks bad on caucasians, horrible on asians, and totally inappropriate for blacks. i’ll never get the annoying itchy hair in your face thing. lesbians look hot in it though.

    anyway… i’d buy the shirt if it had a drum module instead, even though it’ll annoy everyone.

    What if you are left-handed. How could you rock out on your shirt then?
    Oh! Think of the lefties

  14. Sammy says:

    Now if they put that on some pants, how many people are playing?

  15. Mike says:

    No bass shirt?

  16. dude i know metal says:

    That T-shirt has pretty decent tone….for a t-shirt….FOR A T-SHIRT!! This video would be funnier if Creed were performing in these T-shirts.
