    A double controller adapter with the game and two mics, one for lead vocalist and one for backups. That would work but I doubt they'll even consider it.

    Hey, Weird Al had part of that song in a polka. It sounds so different with accordion instead of guitar...

    There doesn't need to be 2 mics, cause the lead singer sings all of it. That's what would make it so hard.

    No no no, the other band members sing in the background when they need to for live shows, other wise it may be all the lead, but when a band is live, and they want the "two people are singing" or an echo-y sound they get the other band members to do it, typically the bassist.

    umm, i'd say more typically the rhythm guitarist does the backup singing, it makes them feel less inferior to the lead guitarist. The bassist and the drummer are pretty much left to cry out of the spotlight somewhere at the back of the stage. Poor rhythm section. They maybe give bassists a mic for the parts where everyone sings. The point is to harmonize by the way, or in your more "KISS" type bands, they do it so that the crowd feels more like there's a lot of people singing and it gives them the "you should be singing along now" cue. (Think similar mental effect to a laugh track. Singing, much like laughter, is contagious.) If they just wanted it to sound like it has echo, or even like there are two people singing, there are plenty of cheap delay effects boxes that could do that. :D

    What's the difference between a rhythm guitar player and a bag of garbage?
    The garbage gets taken out at least once a week.

    Go Lead Singers with lots of Hair!

    Despite the fact that I hate the lead singer's voice, that song is strangely fun to play in Rock Band.

    This video can actually be found at the manufacturer's site, epmotion.com.

    I'm only vaguely reading this thread, but if you're mocking bassists, I will cut off your balls and bludgeon you with my P-Bass...

    That video is everywhere. I showed it to my buddy, Rob, and he would not stop laughing. He then watched it over and over again. Then, he kept quoting it. When were in the car going back to my house, he kept going "WHOS THAT POKEMON ITS PIKACHU GODDAMNIT." It absolutely killed the joke for me. I regret ever showing him that video.

    My name is Rob. Just thought I had to say it.

    Gosh, Rob, way to ruin the joke.

    “It’s PICKACHU!!” His utter disappointment at his own incompetence is quite humorous. He sucks at something he’s passionate about.

    Something I know some people on this forum are passionate -or at least intrigued- about are ZOMBIES!! Which brings me to this interesting video I came across from a series NBC is doing on about fear… or something. Anyway, this particular episode relates to the whole zombie scenario and I found the plot sorta reminded me (at least location wise) of a role-playing game Hamlin was orchestrating on the forums a while ago.

    Zombie show

    They kinda infringe on some important zombie rules, but overall I think they did a standup job.
