I failed out once drumming on Mary Had a Little Lamb. I don't hold out much hope for holding my own against Matt Cameron.

That was Awesome!!!! Matt was really cool. He sang, I played guitar and one of his kids played drums. Someone else (another random gamer) played bass. I asked how the new album was going and said great and that they were almost done. Man, that was the coolest thing I've done in a long time.
Oh, we played Oceans.
