Meanwhile, Power Chord Academy, an organization offering music camps for teens, is now offering one- and three-day summer camps for teens who want to polish their video-game musicianship.
The camps, titled iROCKER and GameROCKERS, respectively, give attendees the opportunity to play Guitar Hero and Rock Star, two popular video games that allow players to “perform” popular and classic rock tunes on virtual instruments. Students have the opportunity to “play in bands, write songs, record songs and play a final concert and Battle of the Bands!”
The three-day GameROCKERS program runs $795, not including travel expenses to one of the Academy’s “campuses” nationwide. The iROCKER program costs $295.
