formula for fun

rock band + chocolate buttercream cake + friends = a great time. this has nothing to do with design, but this video game has occupied so much of my personal time lately that i had to share a few scenes from ac’s 31st birthday party on saturday. if you’re into video games or music at all, i highly suggest rock band. and this recipe for buttercream frosting. delicious.

I just got back from a company retreat and we played this every single night. its incredible. i’ve never owned a video game console before but i’m really considering getting an xbox360 just for rockband.

do you guys play on ps3 or 360? I brought home a ps3 a few weeks ago and have been playing call of duty 4 or rock band every night since then. such an addiction!

Would love to know how you work those rock band drums into your decor. Ours sadly don’t fit in the closet and I’m always tripping over the darn things!

ha! it doesn’t. though we did get those guitar hanging things you drill into the wall to hold the two guitars we have for the game. they’re on a wall no one really sees behind the tv ;)

those darn drums just sit in ac’s music room.
