AIR GUITAR CONTEST RULES:
Air Guitar Competition In connection with Air Guitar UK, www.airguitaruk.com will take place at the convention,1 - You have 60 second, not 59 seconds and not 61 seconds. You have 60 seconds to prove your worth.2 - You must have a guitar and it must be made of air and therefore be invisible.3 - You must play either an electric guitar or an acoustic one, or another kind of guitar, but you can't just make it up.4 - There are 2 rounds to the competition, the 1st is 60 seconds of a song/track/noise. If you get through the 1st round there's the 2nd where you will play the 60 seconds of the compulsory song: a song so complex and demonic we will only play it you at the beginning of the round, so you will basically have to summon a performance out of thin air.
(Having submitted the track details in the entry form, the competitors must bring submit their personally selected songs with them on a CD. The competitor may edit the song beforehand so that it lasts one minute, or alternatively let the organisers know the point from which to start playing the song).5 - Air Roadies are allowed on stage up until the 60 seconds. Pedals/Amps/effect modules/ Backing groups and Whole Air Bands- are not allowed in any visible form. What goes on in your head is your own affair, this is a Championship not group therapy. If your lucky we'll let you use a real pick.6 - There is no dress code.Judgement:The Judges are asked to consider the following when making judgment:Originality:
We've seen a lot already, many times: try to take the art-form somewhere new!The ability to be taken over by the music:
Forget where you are, this is rock and roll.Stage Charisma/Presence:
When the sun sets and the drunk angry crowd who all think they're better than you get going, you'd better pray some subconscious primordial instinct takes over and you can make that connection.Technique/Technical Ability:
If you miss a few notes or chord changes that's all good, but if you get up there without a guitar and just mime along to the music, you're not going to make it with anyone anyhow.Impression:
From the heart my friends, from the heart.Airness:
If you define a thing it loses its power, so lets just say its probably the ability to transcend the reality of all of the above. Probably.Marks are given from 4.0 to 6.0The winner will be considered for the if you have any good contestants we can get look at getting them into the Regional Finals, and from there maybe to the UK finals and World Championships!So what songs do you like to play air guitar to? Which song is worthy of being the compulsory song?Start practicing!!! It would be great to have a Droog represent us on a regional level!
