And speaking of Berliner Luft…
Don’t miss the German Air Guitar Federation’s German Air Guitar World Championship being held at the Admiralspalast tonight. This year’s winner, just like last year’s winner I suppose, gets to participate in the monster mega mother of all Air Guitar World Championships championships which will be held in Finland this September.

The guy everybody is betting on here to represent Germany this year is somebody who calls himself Heart Buckboard. My guess is that he will be playing All I Need Is The Air That I Breathe on a Fender Stratocaster, only that this Stratocaster is made of real stratosphere for once.
Is this a metaphor for something? I mean, I know it’s not a joke. Not really. Is this a sign of our times? Is this supposed to mean something when people spend more time learning how to pretend to do something than learning to do the actual thing itself? Nah.
And who would care if it was anyway? As long as this competition doesn’t turn into the next Eurovision or something, I mean. At least it looks like they’re all having fun. I do hope they check these competitors for doping, though. No, come to think of it, I hope they don’t.
I played until my fingers bled.
