Just won a trip to L.A.!!!

[joshbenesh]

So, I just won a Guitar Hero tournament and a trip to L.A. at a chance to meet Metallica! I would love to meet up with any of you guys if possible - I don't know when the trip will be. I would also like to check out Pete's shop if possible. I'll have to check with him! I have no idea what to do out in L.A., as I've never been west of MN. Anyone have any advice, or things to do/see?

What song did you win with?

What song did you win with?

It was a head to head tournament, final four style - but the championship song was "One". I was behind the whole song until the solo, then I came back to win!

 

[Hardcore]

What percentage did you get? On expert?

 

[Danilo]

i hate that solo.. sounds sick... but i can never pass it.

 

[jwintosh]

"One" by U2? Congrats Josh.

"One" by U2? Congrats Josh.

By Metallica Wade.

 

[Volusianator]

Well that makes more sense as I love the U2 song One, it didn't seem to be something that would be on Guitar Hero.

Gratz on the win, that is so cool. Just goes to show, never give up.

I don't even remember what my percentage was, my score was 460xxx I think, and yeah, it was on Expert. I've got a lot of practicin' to do!

 

[JRL]

Congratulations bro! That's a killer score. I can't even play on expert yet. Not even close. I do however have all of the Guitar Hero games. Me & my girl love them.

 

[Moro]

Finally that thing yields benefits! Congratulations, Josh!!!

 

[njstone]

OH MY GOSH! That is so sweet, Josh! You're MY Guitar Hero! I like that game, but have yet to even beat it on expert. But I play the guitar for real, and just don't feel like putting in the time to do it for the game.

That's really sweet, though. Our own little BOTL celebrity Well done, friend. LA is awesome, too. You should hook up with the SoCal BOTLs and have a Guitar Hero Herf!

Lots to do here, besides meet and greet the local brothers. Venice Beach can be interesting, Magic Mountain if you like roller coasters are just a couple. Depends on where you will be, and how far you are willing to drive.

Congrats on the big win.

 

[VirginIslander]

I forgot this just came out!!! Gotta get it tomorrow. Congrats though man, that's awesome!!

 

[BrandonJ]

Congratulations brother!!!

 

[Cyrann]

That is sweet...enjoy the trip.

Who said Video Games never amounted to anything...

Venice is really cool if you are looking for you nee guitar hero acessories. i.e. a new bong or some organic rolling papers. J/K venice has some interesting folks. Several guys live up there, and I'm sure a few of them could set something up to meet a Pete's. I'll be missing the fun, unless you want to cruise down the freeway an hour or so. Good luck in the competition.


And Wade, how could you forget about metallica ONE? That was my generation's Stairway to Heaven. Only because that was the first and only song everyone knew how to play on guitar.
