Air Guitard Champion???

None of these dorks knows how to throw horns. they are all a bunch of crazies.

That said, I'm thinking of competing as an air bassist... any good tracks I should consider? It's important that it has a real power metal edge, but would appeal to all audiences. Your choice of song can make or break your performance.

I was thinking of "Freebird", but then I seriousd.

I remember hearing somewhere that getting caught playing air guitar is worse than getting caught masturbating, but when you think about it, isn't air guitar just a talentless hack's way of saying "Hey, look at me! I'm special because I can pretend to play an instrument."?

At if you get caught masturbating there is a chance you could get a "Looks like you could use another hand there"..

This is so pathetic. I mean yeah, to each his own and all that and if it doesn't hurt anyone else, then live and let live blahblahblah. But these guys... I don't know where to go without using profanity as primary descriptors.

It's like the polar opposite of those of us who took up playing an instrument to get chicks. The thinking here would seem to be to take up an interest in something that repelled the opposite sex.

Computer geeks and math nerds are respectively Sean Connery and Tom Jones compared to air guitar clowns.

Air Les Paul vs Air Strat
Air Marshall vs Air Fender
Post pics of your 80's air guitar

Which Air Cab should I pair with my Air Head (no pun intended)
What Air Strings do you use
Air Kahler vs Air Floyd Rose

I say Scarified by Racer X. Unleash the air spirit of Air Juan Alderte to some air speed metal. Maybe.

sheesh......i wonder if anyone ever pointed out that those high energy stage moves are that much easier to master when playing the actual instrument is not involved.....it seems that one can remain twelve well into ones thirties these days.....

The guitarist in our band owns the rights to organize the official Air Guitar championships here and he makes a big joke of it. It is kind of funny, especially how the performers really are serious about it (nobody else is). After the local championship, my friend held a press conference at the Hard Rock Cafe to donate the championship air guitar. I think it is still on the wall...
