I'm not sure when air guitaring became post-modern cool - the world air guitar champion can be guaranteed a magazine programme slot every year, and there really do appear to be published books about how to air guitar with the oh so hilarious 'free air guitar' strapline and made up report a couple of weeks later of purchasers complaining about their free gift being absent. Now Guilfest is attempting to break the world mass air guitar record, a feat that I suspect could be officially achieved by four people as it currently stands (why not gather friends around and try and set a mark for them to break?) Needless to say it's happening during Status Quo's set, which is great as not only will it piss off the hardcore fans who demand they be taken more seriously but also it really shows up their desperation to be on the Live 8 bill by reminding them who they actually are.
Mind you, that whole Guilfest bill looks like an overlong exercise in irony, doesn't it?
