This Wednesday, there will be an air guitar competition in Manhattan followed by a holiday Aireoke free-for-all. While it's not a national qualifier, you can win prizes. It's also good training for the Summer air season. Plus, check out the jury panel (below).
Here's the info. So far there are no female contestants. What's up with that?
