Question though, will the actual game have those silly dialog boxes asking the questions, or were those just added for this video?

"Kabbage Boy is an extremely popular band that if you don't know about then you must be over 20, I'm talking OLD," said Tim Schafer, President of Double Fine Productions and avid Kabbage Boy fan. "Because everybody who is anybody who is between the ages of 11-15 knows and loves Kabbage Boy. We were very lucky to get them in Brutal Legend, and we just hope they don't sue us like they are threatening to do."
I read that, and think to how (neversoft-era) Guitar Hero-ish that band is, and all I can say is "Touche, Mr. Schafer. Touche."
