Wednesday, August 12, 2009 And They Called Him... NICKELBLACK  "Last month Harmonix announced that it will license software tools and provide training for anyone to create and distribute interactive versions of their own songs on a new Rock Band Network, which will drastically expand the amount and variety of interactive music available. The Rock Band Network is so potentially consequential that Harmonix went to great lengths to keep its development secret, including giving it the unofficial in-house code name Rock Band: Nickelback, on the theory that the name of the quintessentially generic modern rock group would be enough to deflect all curiosity." --From Daniel Radosh's New York Times article today on the Rock Band: Beatles game set to launch soon. Wow. Amazing, and hilariously devastating. Also, as an aside: one of Lil' Beaumont's friends once received for Christmas not a requested cd of the folk-bluegrass group Nickel Creek, but instead a live Nickelback DVD. Whoops. Which is not unlike Christmas '99 when my grandmother accidentally gave my young cousin a Blackstreet cd instead of the new Backstreet Boys cd. Yes, the same grandmother who bought me the Smashing Pumpkins and Pearl Jam. No diggity.
