The latest TV spot for Guitar Hero Live is here and features certified rock legend Lenny Kravitz and certified chill bro James Franco attempting to outplay each other.

The ad, directed by Joseph Krisel (Portlandia; Kroll Show; Tim & Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!) pits the two in a battle to try and win over the game’s dynamic crowd. While many of the lines are clearly scripted, ad-libbed lines like Franco’s “don’t split your pants” moment are genuinely funny.

Kravitz’s song “Are You Gonna Go My Way” features in the main Guitar Hero Live tracklist. Guitar Hero Live releases October 20 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U and (believe it or not) iOS.

But seriously, who plays on Normal? Lrn 2 rhythm game, Lenny Kravitz.
