Reporter's Notebook: This is what a World Champion air guitarist looks like

Posted by Justin Kendall on Fri, Aug 7, 2009 at 6:30 AM

What makes a World Champion air guitarist? It's the undefinable characteristic known as airness. As 2008's world champ Hot Lixx Hulahan told me, "It's where the art of mimicking the guitar transcends just faking the guitar and becomes an art form unto itself." So who better to study than Hot Lixx himself? No one, as Eric "Mean" Melin told me in the days before tonight's U.S. Air Guitar Championships. Take a look at the licks that made Hulahan the best in the world.
