This is how we do it

New Year's Eve Oh-Seven was spent at our good friends' Aaron and Whitney's house playing "Rock Band" on the PS3. I haven't laughed that hard in a really, really, really long time!

Here's Ben, getting in trouble before we even started, for touching the drums when he wasn't supposed to. Aaron is a giving him the two-finger point, which tells you he really should have just left those sticks alone!


We gave Ben's brother, Tripp, a really hard time last night, and part of his punishment was that his band's lead singer would be this guy, affectionately monikered "Chocolate Rain."

The whole band

The REAL Chocolate Rain

I know we look rough. But people, life in a Rock Band ain't easy. Aaron back there has developed a nasty coke habit. I apparently aged myself by 20 years and have horrible under eye circles and a double chin. And Chocolate Rain? Well, we just can't even list all his problems. Rock -N- Roll is tough, kids. It's tough.

If you're really good, you can see video of Ben as the lead singer here. :-)
