Airing It Out!!!

I never imagined how much fun I would have partaking in the spectacle that someone else's dream built... but I did. The US Air Guitar Championships tour made an emergency stop in Milwaukee, between jaunts to Cleveland and Minneapolis. This is serious business and the faithful die hard. Luckily the Milwaukee stop was just an exhibition thus allowing me to mime a rendition of Devo's Whip It with a couple friends (aptly dubbed the Furious Danger Purple Kangaroo Band).

Mid riff, I dashed into the crowd and managed to free a lamp shade from a rather curvy lamp, before knocking the lamp part to the floor. The prop increased the Devo affect 15 fold...

This type of outing was definitely worth the time on a Friday night. In addition to the comedy that is air guitar, I also worked myself out of breath on the air drums, as well as, the air bass and guitar. The cardio-vascular aspect relieved any guilt I did not have post performance. Bonus!!!

So I guess these two guys just started doing this one day... one is named Hot Nix Hulahan (while at the karaoke console, he personally gave me the nod of approval for the lamp shade stunt) and the other Bjorn Turoque. Thank you for bringing novelty to an participatory entertainment form that had lost its novelty. If only I remembered my camera!

I definitely plan to check out the movie. So many nations with in a nation! The US Air Guitar website has a schedule on the main page... so it may be in your town soon!
