US Air Guitar Championships!

A huge crew of us knew we couldn’t miss this show – and luckily most of us bought advance tickets, because it completely sold out! We were way in back for Round 1, but then got to move up front for the final round. SO MUCH FUN!!

Some of my favorite photos from the evening:


AWESOME! This guy embodies air guitar IMO. He cracked me up!


“Noodle Arms” hot chic contestant who made it to the final round! awww yaa!


“Flying V” had a wig on in the 1st round, and took it off here in the 2nd. However his awesome
rock facial expressions made up for it! We thought he was going to win!


Our beloved & charming M.C. – not to mention a mad talented air guitarist!


The winner! Hot Licks Houlihan!

All the photos from this event are posted here: SF Air Guitar Championships & all the videos can be seen above, or on YouTube here. ROCK!

    I thought shred nugent got a raw deal, but other than that the show was frickin’ awesome. There was a moment or two in the middle where I just had to stop and marvel that I was at a sold-out show in San Francisco, in which we were watching people play imaginary guitars. It’s a strange and wonderful world we live in.

    I was probably a good 10 feet away from you guys during the second round, but I didn’t see you! glad you had a good time.
