For some fun, Air Guitar.

I love to guita-r. (QT required, but the downloads were pretty fast.) Wha-wha without the paddles. These are videos of past winners and hall-of-famers of US Air Guitar Championships. Makes for a laugh.

It's not so much an abundance of talent and more of a lack of dignity.

Air guitarists are just energetic mimes. Hard to figure out what is more fantastic, the playing style or clothing style.

Awesome link. Looking forward to air DJing in the future.

This is a good excuse for me to link to a kid playing Eruption.

For a surreal cacophonous symphony, play them simultaneously.

It's hard to appreciate the beauty when you know they're playing all wrong. I know, I know... suspension of disbelief. Still, I liked gwint's video better.

The device you are thinking of is a wah-wah pedal.

I appreciate air guitar. Always did. I just find I can't sing and play air guitar at the same time.

Eh. I was expecting it to be better.

Disappointed. I thought the guitaring would be a capella.

Remind me sometime to hit you guys with my a capella version of Jimi's Star-Spangled Banner.

Awesome. I'm totally going to study and rip-off some of Bjorn Turoque's moves.

Heh. The girl on the Conan clip says she studied the tablature of the song she did to get the fingering right, "with a few liberties."
