The Who’s Baba O’Reily, played using only items from Think Geek.

I watched this while trying to drink my coffee this morning.

I say "trying" because I just sat here with my mouth hanging open until the whole thing was over. This is pure brilliance. 

Anyway, it seems appropriate to share this as I'm going out the door to start work on The Big Bang Theory:

  2. That was great, you need to talk to the guys at B.B.T. and thinkgeek about making a truly geeky music video for that with the cast of B.B.T.

  6. WOW!!! This is the coolest thing I have seen in a long time. How genius these guys are. This totally made the day! Thanks for sharing, Wil!
    Good luck on Big Bang. =]

  9. O … M … G!
    That was so cool it defies explanation. thanks for sharing that!
    Have fun working BBT today. Looking forward to finding out when the episode will be on 🙂

  12. Awesome Vid! Thank you for sharing it.
    Can I mention how excited I am that Evil!Wil will be back on BBT? It is made of Pure Awesome! I really hope Evil!Wil calls Sheldon “Moonpie” again.
    Speaking of evil characters played by one Wil Wheaton – is there any chance we will get to see a certain hacker on Leverage next season?
    If there is nothing currently in the works, do you have the address for the Leverage writers room? I bake fabulous lemon squares, and I’m not above bribery.

  15. Wow, I was just looking at Think Geek products earlier this morning. This video makes all their stuff THAT much cooler! I was also amazed by it, thanks for sharing. Also, I am looking forward to Evil Wil’s reappearance as well. Have fun!

  17. That is awesome on too many levels. I’m sad that the only thing more awesome than that video will be your next episode of BBT and that will take weeks to arrive. Somehow, I’ll find the will to wait for it.

  26. Love it! And I just got the stylophone (position 4 in the grid) for Xmas. ThinkGeek has taken another important step in their evil plans to get my money 😉

  34. That was fun. If you want to see another awesome version, check out the Blue Man Group’s version in their show “How To Be A Megastar 2.0”. I’m sure it’s on YouTube somewhere but really it’s awesome to go see the whole show – it was one of the best concerts I went to last year.

  35. Haha, I happened to see this even before you linked it! I think I saw it on Twitter minutes after they posted a link to it. Awesome stuff. Stylophones are fun stuff. 🙂

  38. Marissa’s had so many seizures this week, I can’t even count them. I’ve got a new baby due in two weeks that may or may not also have epilepsy.
    This is so excellent and brought so much joy to me today, I thought I was going to cry. Thanks, Wil.

  39. Hey, Wil! I never read the credits because they scroll so fast and didn’t even realize that was you…lolol Wesley Crusher is still fresh in my mind with all the syndicated reruns..Anyway, Think I’ll start watching it more ’cause I loved…uh…”That didn’t quite come out the way I meant…”–liked you on TNG. They should’ve kept you for the entire series. You are awesome!
    That whole quote: “I’ve come to think you’re handsome for a Klingon. That didn’t quite come out the way I meant, sir.” lol Good, funny times…
