Rock on...

hey everyone: check out Fatima Hoang, 2005 US Air Guitar Champion lol... Man, as u can tell, i love to search around for cool and funny things relating to the world of guitars, tone - well just about anything remotely related to the subject of guitar... I rarely come across something as hilarious as this... i think i got my head buried in the sand or something 'cause this made me laugh hysterically behind my computer screen for like 10 minutes (just don't get out much i guess). You just gotta check this out: There is a US National and International Air Guitar Competition... like this thing is huge. It even gets a spot on CNN when the annual US champ is announced... I must be just reeeeally Canadian or something 'cause man, this is hilarious! Here are the official rules of the competition:

- Each performance is played to one minute (60 seconds) of a song chosen by the performer or the event organizers
- The 60 seconds can start anywhere in the song
- The instrument must be invisible and must be a guitar, i.e. air drums are not permitted but air bass is permitted
- Personal air roadies are allowed, but they must leave the stage before the performance begins
- Back-up bands (air or real) are not allowed

The US regional heats will each consist of two rounds:
- Round 1: each competitor performs to a song of their own choosing
- Round 2: the top five from round 1 perform to a surprise obligatory song selected by the organizers
- The first round is performed to music selected by the contestants themselves
- The obligatory song is the same for every contestant ­ contestants will all hear the song before going on stage.
