the flipperYou may not be able to play a lick on the guitar, but you can still harness the power of rock to become a virtuoso pancake and burger flipper. Plus you’ll have a spatula made out of the same material as most rockstars’ girlfriends. You’re halfway there!

But after seeing this battery-operated bicycle toy, all that has changed. Now I envision watching this contraption spin in circles for hours with that crazy music bouncing off the walls of my padded cell. Check out the video after the break to see what I mean.

From Fashionably Geek: Let’s face it—Prince is getting older. He’s already 50 and he has a bum hip. Maintaining independence is crucial, but a guy like Prince can’t be caught riding a Rascal. So, according to this shirt he has chosen the lesser of two evils—a Segway. Although, I have to admit—picturing Prince on a Segway is like picturing grandma riding a chopper.

If you want to play an instrument but have no desire to learn anything, the kazoo would be your best bet. But seeing a grown man with a kazoo in his mouth would look a little silly. To make yourself feel better, and certainly look better, you can get yourself this Trombone Kazoo. It even has a working slider. It won’t make a difference in the sound, but that is probably for the best anyway.

With Sega’s Live Dream Sensor Stage you don’t have to listen the music as it has been released. You choose not only what song to play but which of the instruments you want to hear. The concept is simple: if you want to hear a particular instrument for the song that is playing, just place it on the stage. If you don’t want to hear any particular instrument, just leave it off the stage. There are two sets available, a rock set and a jazz set that have different included songs and instruments with downloadable tracks available online for each. Both sets have working, music enabled stage lighting but apparently no smoke machine is included.

I have no idea what Chopin knew about cooking, but I do know that his name is just far too close to the word “chopping” not to be taken advantage of. Since the whole cutting board has sheet music on it you may as well time your chopping to the song. Unfortunately, now you need to learn how to read sheet music as well as how to cook.
