Abstract: “Always re-tease your hair before the encore. ALWAYS.” Good advice for a good time. The 80s were an era of ridiculous hairstyles, outrageous clothing, and a distinct type of rock music that lives on today in memory and in many CD compilations...
Abstract: Okay, you already know how Guitar Hero works don’t you? First, you consume enough alcohol so you don’t feel stupid holding a plastic guitar, but not too much that you might believe the five different colour dots racing towards the screen are attacking ...
