Air Guitar is Worth Dying For

Yes, it's true. Air guitar CAN kill you. A dude in singapore was rocking out SO hard, that he fell out of a window to his death.

I know you can get whiplash from air guitar headbanging, but now death? This is one risky sport people.

Also worth dying for? The EAST COAST CROWN of American Air Guitar.

Bjorn will be your emcee. Come on down. Enter at your own risk.

The NYC Regional Champion will secure a spot in the 2006 US Finals, where he or she will compete against Regional Champions from across the country as well as the first-ever Collegiate Champion. The US Finals will be held in New York City for the first time, in June or July (date TBD).

The winner of the US Finals will win a trip to Finland to represent the USA in the 11th annual Air Guitar World Championships.

Hi Bjorn
My name is Jeff Heimbuch. I met you at last year's competetion. I was the guy who competed to "Gay Bar."
Anyway, I'm competing again this year. My friend Jason is doing is Capstone for school on it, and was looking to interview some of the people there.
Since you are pretty much the father of all things air, I was wondering if we would be able to get a few quick words from you on the event and what it means to you.
If so, can you please email me at jeff@bamferproductions.com?
Thanks a whole lot, and see you on Thursday!
PS - I didn't know you majored in Film. That's awesome, because I'm a film major, too.
