WTF?: This bird likes Rock Band photo

Earlier today, both Sean Baptiste and Alex Navarro of Harmonix tweeted something about a "little bird" telling them about some contest going on at the official Rock Band Twitter account.

So I called bulls**t. Birds hadn't told them anything. Birds don't really talk, save for the occassional parrot or whatever. And when they do, it sure as hell isn't about contests or Rock Band. So I accused them of being liars. Dirty and filthy liars. Sean quickly proved me wrong. I officially stand corrected. 

See what I'm talking about after the jump. Also, Hatebeak.

pfeh, I'm not impressed. My parents have a mini Macaw parrot that known how to sing. His name is Pesto, and he learned how to sing to the tune of "Peter Cottontail," but he sings the words "Sing a little Pesto song" because my mom would sing that to him with a snow globe that played Peter Cottontail.

He only REALLY knows the first line, but he will sing it along with you whenever you play ANY music, or sing, or play Guitar Hero/Rock Band, etc. He also makes a singing noise that's closer to a whistle, and he dances when he sings and whistles, bobbing up and down. He LOVES music, when my dad plays his guitar, Pesto will run over to listen and sign.

This African Grey just sits there saying "I like Rock Band." What a lazy bird.

@Zero Atma:

It also sounds like he's beatboxing to the Chili Peppers; that's pretty impressive.

I love that Hatebeak was just mentioned on Dtoid.

I would definitely buy Hatebeak DLC for RB, and just try to squawk as hard as they can.
