Once I get my hands on some photos, I will be able to recount the awesomeness of last night's US regional Air Guitar Championships. In the meantime, here's three things you should know about what went down:
1. William Ocean beat out Couch Potato to win the NY regionals- I was rooting for CP- Ocean was all style and no ability (ok, that front flip and split combo WAS pretty amazing), but the Potato not only rocked a curly mullet and bangs, he also used imaginary pedals and at one point played an air fiddle.
2. Best quote of the night was by the insanely hot MC (aka Dan "Bjorn Turoque" Crane) to the crowd when they didn't feel one contestant's skills.
" You people wouldn't know airness if it bit you on the ass and gave you a rusty trombone."
Coincidentally, the booed contestant's name was Rusty.
3. Best outfit definitely goes to Dwight D. Rockenhower. He came out in a floor length civil war-type jacket and hat, only to rip it off 30 seconds into Electric Six's "Dance Commander" (i think), revealing a gold spandex cat suit and matching sash. This guy was probably 100 pounds, but he pulled it off like a professional ballerina.

Wow
So, I found the incorrect spelling of my name on the SPIN.com site gallery, and decided to plug it into Google to see what else I got.
And what do you know, I find your blog.
I just wanted to thank you for mentioning me and liking my costume. I hope you enjoyed the performance as well. "...pulled it off like a professional ballerina." is probably one of the funniest things I've read about my performance that night.
Again, thanks for enjoying!
If you want to see my performance again, I have it up at my site, www.bamferproductions.com, and also on YouTube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8mw7tFyqpI
See you next year, and maybe talk to you soon.
