"Rock Band" versus real Rock Band - Rush plays game version of "Tom Sawyer"

[tommys67]

As some of you may know, the band Rush appeared on The Colbert Report a week or so ago.  It was their first appearance on US television in 30 years.

Well...

At some point during their visit to the studio, the producers had the guys in the band play along to the "Rock Band" version of their song "Tom Sawyer."

The video speaks for itself.




Edited because no one saw this - and I think it's entertaining.

I hate Rock Band and Guitar Hero. Dumb wannabe crap, and as the video shows, you look like a tool when you are playing it.

Did you notice they "were still playing the following night" after Steven slept at his desk all night? Laugh!

Reminds me of the story about the Dixie Chicks entering a karaoke competition and coming in 3rd. While singing their own material.
