When it comes to video games I am obsessive-compulsive about beating them. If I start a game I must finish it. No matter how bad, or how hard it is I will not rest until the ending credits have rolled across the screen. Like Bruce Hornsby says ... that's just the way it is!

Me and my girlfriend’s Halloween costumes - The Guitar Heroes
SilverDragon1979 | 12:38 PM on 11.02.2008 13 comments




So this year my girlfriend and I decided to dress up as Guitar Heroes. As you can see, this involved a very large amount of fluorescent hair coloring and tight clothing. In order to distinguish ourselves from just regular rock stars we made sure to include our fake plastic instruments, which no true guitar hero can be without. Now yes if you want to get picky we were actually using Rock Band guitars, not Guitar Hero guitars, but who has ever heard of “Rock Band Heroes”?

So this year we actually had to go to two different parties on two different nights, so we dressed up slightly different for each. As you will see in the pictures below we did not put as much coloring in our hair the first night, but we went all out and completely covered our hair the second night. Also, just to point out, the name of our band is the Rogue Stallions. I have posted a whole bunch of pictures below so check them out. Let me know what you think.

By the way, we actually won a prize at the first party we went to for the "Most Original Costume". We were both very shocked but very happy, especially since we won a gift card.

Party #1












Party #2

Are you sure its just a Halloween costume and not something you wear everyday?

Seems the style is a natural fit for the two of you, plastic guitar and all.

Just because it's cheesy don't make it not good. Look at cheese pizza.

My roommates (and additional friends) crashed a Halloween frat party all dressed as hicks, pulling up with 9 people in the bed of a truck with two coolers of beer and fisting a bottle of Southern Comfort (which was pretty much gone by the time we got there)... and then we planted two McCain campaign signs (one upside down) and began getting shitfaced.

That wasn't exactly VG related, but damn, that was fun.
