Changes: The Keyboardist

Revision as of 12:18, 11 September 2010

The Keyboard Player is a non-playable character in Guitar Hero and Guitar Hero II. He occasionally appears alongside the band in songs without a vocal part, such as the Allman Brothers' Jessica or Dick Dale's Misirlou.

Appearance

The Keyboard Player is a chubby man with long hair. He is the second hairiest man in the game, behind The Bassist.

Background

In the Guitar Hero documentary, they say his name is Larry, and that "he is only in the band because he is the drummer's cousin." It was also mentioned in the documentary that they would have made him an unlockable character if time had allowed it, which opens the option for Activision to make him a special unlockable in future games, although it isn't likely, but would be very interesting and entertaining.
