The Campaign: 2015 US Air Guitar Nationals in Boston

Posted by Camille Barichello on Tue, Oct 07, 2014 @ 08:13 PM

Remember how last year there was some grassroots support, including my own, for having US Air Guitar Nationals in Kansas City, and then it actually happened? Well, now it's time for me to turn that same high-powered spotlight (ha!) on the town I actually live in, Boston!

Women in Competitive Air Guitar Series: Guest Post #1

Posted by Camille Barichello on Fri, Sep 12, 2014 @ 09:00 AM

As promised, I'll be publishing some thoughts from other women in competitive air guitar over the next little while. Some of these women are choosing to be anonymous, while others are using their names. Please know that this is not intended to beat anyone over the head with these stories - rather, the purpose of the series is to flesh out the experiences that we have had so as to give a fuller picture, and to show how pervasive and widespread these similar experiences are.

Recap: 2014 Air Guitar World Championships

Posted by Camille Barichello on Mon, Sep 08, 2014 @ 09:00 AM

The season is over, the planes are flying home with tired, smelly, and extremely happy air guitarists on them, and that means it's time for a recap of the 2014 Air Guitar World Championships. Once again, I wasn't there; once again, I watched it live, as much as I could with the livestream dying on me constantly, and made do with recordings for the parts I missed. And now I am here for you. I would've been here for you earlier, but I missed a couple of performances and was waiting to see if video of them would appear. It did not, so I'm shamefully totally unaware of how their performance went down.
