Don’t know what I did…but I did it. I signed up for the Dallas competition next Wednesday at 8:00 PM. I hope I don’t make too big of a fool out of myself.

Here it is

that sounds like it will be a lot of fun ... for both the participants and audience ... too bad I'm not in Dallas or I'd go shoot that event!

I can so see you doing that, and doing it very well! Make sure someone does indeed document the event and share the pics with us! Cell phone will be fine if that's what it takes.

I'm hoping I'll have video and photos. This might not happen again.

I'm thinking of doing the solo from My Sharona...any other suggestions. I want to do something that 10 other people will do that night. I asked them what were some bands to stay away from they said AC/DC and Metallic.

Dude that is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me think for a minute but of course the first thought that comes to mind for the solo is Eruption.

But I know I can come up with better BRB! :-D

Or somthing from SRV!

You Really Got Me (the Van Halen version) is a classic for air guitar contest. Kiss Rock n Roll All Night comes to mind also.

haa kind of ironic that you would suggest Eruption just before I suggested You Really Got Me. lol

There is a instrumental piece that Frank Zappa did called "Sexual Harassment in the Workplace" It is an amazing solo with a ton of feel and the first note is a string bend that goes on for like 4 measures. It rocks so much.

Still thinking...

Yeah Van Halen in the day RULED!

i was refering to the order they play on the album.

Billy Idol has a couple of songs Prince Purple Rain i have seen done a few times.

Many Many classic Guitar tunes that you could do.

There are some amazing guitar solos off the first Vinnie Vincent Invasion album, relatively obscure and totally self-indulgent. I think they'd be perfect for air guitar.

Sounds like fun! Jimi Hendrix for me....I just downloaded 2 of his songs as my ringtone. Good luck!!

I will document the entire event so don't worry.
My wife will take video which I am sure Clint will
put on his myspace page. I will put up a gallery
at my Pbase. You can view it HERE. I'll post the gallery on Thursday.
This is going to be GREAT!!!

scuttle buttin by srv is great
06/15/2007 03:12:30 PM · #21
Damn. I'm quite excited about this. How weird is that? Best of luck, Clint, and I really am looking forward to seeing the performance!

There is a good chance that Channel 8 News will be doing an interview with me. I am really starting to wonder what I got myself into.

I just did a phone interview with a guy from the Dallas Morning News. This is getting crazy. It also looks like I will be shooting my interview for the News at 11:30 tomorrow morning. If I win tomorrow night I will be going to New York for the US Finals.

Clint, if your personality is anything like I think it is (and as it comes across here both in your posts and your pictures), I think you have a really good chance. GOOD LUCK!!
06/19/2007 04:53:12 PM · #25
I wish I could go witness this...it's got to be a riot! I have a lot of friends at Channel 8; want me to call anyone? ;)

Break a leg, Clint!
