Team Building: Warner Music staff hard at work...playing Rock Band

TDS Editors

Apparently the staff at Warner Bros. Records in Burbank has started a YouTube channel to show off their skills at playing Rock Band while at work. If only they put this much effort into….oh who cares anyway!

WBR Rockband Tournament:

Get your practice on (we encourage you learn the songs using imeem if you don’t know them). See you at 6pm!

Large version here.

Ethan Kaplan, VP of Technology at Warner Bros. Records, expresses his frustration on his office wall. His team, the technology department’s “Bleeding Ada Lovelace,” was eliminated in the first round.

I dont know many industry people who work after 6pm on a FRIDAY night, do you?? Should have thought through that title a little harder.

Why am I not surprised that Marketing has the two least in-touch, most out-of-date references in their band names?

#5 Jason B says:

Stop the presses. People having fun late night friday nights? How dare them.

#6 Listen-Up says:

God forbid anyone in the music biz have any fun in the off hours… how dare they? This is an idiotic posting. Good for WBR to find time as a staff to have a little fun… with um, MUSIC!

Winner gets a 360 deal

There are people in the industry who do actually work past 6pm on Fridays. It's called work ethic. Jeff what label do you work at? I'm down for the challenge.

#9 RR says:

Stuff like that will surely drive the stock price down. Oh, wait ...
