*shudders at the thoughts of:

Guitars of Wanking +3

Keyboards with a +4 modifier to left hand muddiness*

the list could go on, but I apparently just made a saving throw against further geekiness (yes, I played way to much D&D back in the days)

it brings to mind the Stephen Lynch song D&D

Youtube performance

I put on my wizard's hat and robe.

Let's just hope the guitarists never learn to cast solo of the infinite.

I'm restraining laughter at work to the point of tears.

It would be cooler if they where into DD and LOTR and all that, but its all about Harry Potter, who is just a little kid who wishes he was Gandolf.

I've been to two Harry and the Potter's concerts and two Remus Lupins concerts. The Parslemouths also opened for the Remus Lupins.

Yeah. I went in costume.

lol. That's hilarious!

I, must say, I was completely baffled when I read this thread and found out that it was considered it's own music genre. *sigh* I'm not the coolest or anything, but I don't think I'd ever do "Potter Rock" or whatever the hell it's called.
