I hold it pretty much like the guy in the picture although you could argue I hold it kind of like an accordion since it's more sideways than guitar-ways. oh and I changed my pick buttons to left arrow and up arrow since they're closer together, easier to push, and make less noise.

Did this while I played GH songs on Medium/Hard, and then switched to a guitar controller when I finally got to Expert (And picked up a 360 version of GH2 cheaply from a friend, which works great, and Rock Band for x-mas. :p)

Well I have a laptop so I tried holding it like the mascot, I decided not to do that again after almost dropping my laptop.

Then I just went flat for awhile.

A couple weeks later I went to a flea market and bought a used one for $2 and then played like a mascot.

And finally for christmas I got a PS2 guitar controller, good thing was I already had a generic PS2USB adapter and I've been using that ever since.

So, I've done all of the above, and since there was not E, I just got some scrap paper, put a circle, scribbled it in, and wrote E all the above and just taped that on my monitor on top of the poll.

I hold the keyboard more or less like the mascot, I hold it like how I hold my Guitar Hero Controller.

I play mascot style, except every first friday, when I play GH1-3, and FoF on a huge projector, then I use my blue flying v, with blue LED backlit strumbar, its a wireless one.
PS every first friday at the public library, we get to use the movie room, surround sound FTW

Time for a serious response.
I play on a keyboard and DON'T hold it like SOME people in this thread. :D
I always have and always will.
(unless my buddy who has the 360 version of GH3 lets me borrow one his controllers :p)

Dude, I have Vista. It works fine.

Why do so many people hate vista? It's fine (buggy, however, if you use a transformation pack).

I use the keyboard... on my laptop. Though I've tried using it like the mascot, it's kind of hard...

Spoiler:

It's not a real goose, it's only a picture of one.
