I Am Not Making This Up
Remember my " Cowbell Hero" post from Sunday? Well, as always, truth is stranger than fiction. The game Rock Band has "Don't Fear The Reaper" in its song list, and allows the player to use the microphone as a percussion instrument (which includes, specifically, the cowbell). So, when it gets released, you actually will be able to pit your cowbell skills up against Gene Frenkle's.
