First,
Celebrity Dungeons and Dragons should definitely be a thing. It'd be entertaining,
and low-budget. Depending on who you booked, anyway; I guess Rihanna
would want a decent fee.
Second,
it's rare to see any sort of crossover between my twin passions of
RPGs and post-mid-90s-esque alt-rock. So it's been great to see some
D&D love coming from the rock star - the rock star - Ben
Kweller. He recently posted a Facebook vid of a D&D game he was
playing with his kids. Awesome parenting + D&D = Win.
Click here to see the vid - sadly, I can't embed Facebook vids directly into Blogger posts. Oh, and BK himself is not in shot here; he's the guy filming.
If
you aren't au fait with Kweller's oeuvre, he's just...
swell. Here's one of his more recent songs. He doesn't sing about D&D
in this one, though (you really have to delve into the back catalogue
for that).
Man,
I love BK. Oh, he has a new pre-Christmas single out, 'It Ain't Christmas Yet'. Get it. Because it's great. And because he's a D&D
fan.
So,
who's in your dream D&D group? You can choose anybody
you like. Except Shakira. Because she's already DMing for me.

A whole post on celebrity D&D, Paul, and you don't mention Vin Diesel?
ReplyDeleteVin Diesel's next week. Maybe Wil Wheaton too.
DeleteFelicia Day is a GURPS 4e player. She's also better looking than Vin.
DeleteMost renowned sexy comic artists don't expect the same profound specialized understanding of their field that they have, so its a decent thought not to seem to think you know as much as them.
