The Bassist of Nirvana never really played Rock Band, but he knew that Nirvana has released a few songs on the game. So he decided to check it out. Little did he realise he was terrible at. And then a little kid started playing right after him and played extremely well, little did the kid know the person from that band was watching him cream his score.

"I knew the bass line to the song, of course, but I couldn't quite master this new, different way of playing it," writes Krist Novoselic, bassist for Nirvana, of his encounter with Rock Band 2.

Novoselic wrote about confronting a song he'd played hundreds of time — in studio, live, you name it — on Rock Band 2. But first, he's not a gaming luddite: "Rock has found new life with video games, and the phenomenon is leading to a revival of bands that have been around for a long time," he wrote in the Seattle Weekly.

But he never had any exposure to Rock Band or Guitar Hero until recently in a mall store, where he was literally beaten at his own game.
