'Air guitar' is now a recognised genre of entertainment with competitions and everything. I propose that people who want to pretend to play air guitar practice the noble art of 'air air guitar' in which they mimic the gestures and movements that they would use if they were playing real air guitar.

Next they'll be miming the karaoke singers.

[xen] Milli Vanilli may be interested in that idea...

//miming the karaoke singers// There's a kind of precedent on the inverted miming/lip-syncing in the "bad lipreading" or "music-less music video" genre, where an entirely new soundtrack is created to fit a particular set of visuals.

For Covid-era performances will there be virtual virtual awards?

What's next? Kids will be pretending to fake doing air guitar, then others will mimic them. It'll turn into a physical form of chinese whispers - who knows what the end result might look like? (Probably nothing even vaguely related to performance with a stringed instrument...)

Of course there's also AirHead Guitar. This is where you pretend to play a guitar using a cardboard cut out figure of one of Trump's airheads.

I thought I was playing an air air air guitar but it turned out I was playing an air air air air guitar. How embarrassing.

The guitar was originally a German instrument, invented, as everyone knows, by Herr Guitar.

No no no, he only invented the Hair Guitar, which was a commercial flop because the hair kept getting tangled round the handlebars. The Guitar was invented by the Geats and used in their famous battle against the Gits.

//but what???//

A will kit? That would be in the heir care section.

Playing the "Air Ukelele" is now my newest Friday night hang out sport. When I get drunk, though, I keep hitting myself in the face, piece of you know...
