2011 Air Guitar Championships

oh my word. this is real life. 6/15/11 at bowery ballroom. tickets are $16. this doesn't really sound much different than a normal friday night with too many shots of whiskey for jg and i, but it may well be worth checking out.

Each US Regional will consists of two rounds. In Round 1, each competitor performs to a song of their own choosing. Competitors with highest scores from Round 1 advance to Round 2, where they must then perform to a surprise compulsory song. In each round, contestants perform to 60 seconds of a song, and are judged on a combination of Technical Merit, Stage Presence, and “Airness." All guitars must be invisible. In each city, the jury is a panel of independent judges that are hand picked by US Air Guitar. The results of the jury cannot be protested.
