The first semi-final of the 2014 US Air Guitar season has taken place! The Midwest Semifinal pulled in the top 3 air guitarists from the qualifiers in Kansas City, Des Moines, Chicago, and Detroit. Surprising no one, the midwest is always a force (it's not for nothing that the current reigning World Champion, Mean Melin, hails from Kansas City). The general consensus among spectators and participants was that this semi-final was basically a "mini Nationals" with regard to the level of talent and excitement!

Second-Hand Recap: 2014 LA US Air Guitar Qualifier
LA held their US Air Guitar Qualifier the same night as Des Moines. There was, as I understand, less in the way of men exposing themselves, but they did keep alive the tradition of family rivalry. They also had a healthy number of competitors, which I like to see, and they rocked the famous Viper Room - which has a lit-up extension to the stage that apparently is great for powerslides. Let's talk about it!

Second-Hand Recap: 2014 Des Moines US Air Guitar Qualifier
Well, Des Moines will never be the same. A bevy of Kansas City air guitarists invaded the place and rocked faces, and in one case, shocked the audience with a dramatic pants malfunction. We'll get to that, although you've probably seen it all over the internet already.

Second-Hand Recap: 2014 San Diego US Air Guitar Qualifier
Is your 2013 US Air Guitar National Champion going to let you down? Of course not. So, when Lt. Facemelter signed up to host the San Diego Qualifier this year, everyone knew it was going to rock. Last year, they had Plinko to choose people's second-round songs. This year... well. We will get to that.
