thanks for that, it's a must for the thread. Too find out more on Air Guitar Eric and his army of Air Guitar warriors, visit this BBC page with more picture sure to cause delight.
Now I have to find another guitar to make this post on topic. |

I think that one looks quite eye catching Bass, and although i would have reservations about playing it in some of the rougher pubs around the East End, id feel quite happy to play it at childrens party.. Where do i get one? |

Mike, for a minute I was worried that Avatar-Eric was an air-guitar seller dicking about on the Fleeb. You don't know how relieved I am to learn that he's merely an example of the entirety of BBC local-yokel hick-radio staff wasting my licence fee. It must be cheaper than if they reverted to stealing paperclips, eating subsidized sandwiches in the canteen and occasionally telling us when the nearest pharmacist was open, as is the normal output of the bandwidth-wasting garbage that occupies a whole heap of the MW spectrum.
Ooops, did I sound a little cynical? Expect the "BBC Licence Fee" van (the one with a coat-hanger glued to the roof and two, bored blokes sat inside reading "Fat Tarts" magazine) to park outside my house for a few weeks.  |

| As an Aussie who listens to brit radio quite a bit on the net, I didnt expect BBC would be too bad, well at least one of its many stations to be okay? I mainly have Virgin or Sky on and BBC only on occasion for a doco or something live. |

I understand what you're saying, but I'm talking BBC local radio, Mike. Willfully, somnambulantly, stupefyingly dull in the extreme.
"Well, the burst water mains on Charter St is now cleared up. Good news for everyone travelling to the vet's just off Broadoak Ave. Soon, we'll have Gilly with the chemist's rota after the 'you are 60+ and listening to BBC Local Radio' jingle, but first; here's St Winifred's Catholic Primary School Choir's version of Paul Anka's version of Sammy Hagar's version of David Lee Roth's version of Minnesota Fat's version of... who remembers old Minnesota Fats? Did you play pool with him once? Ring in if you've got a funny story about him, or just some story about your grandchild in a swimming pool making bubbles out of the bottom that popped charmingly. Please, we've got fifteen hours to kill until an exclusive interview with The Merseybeats comes up" |

Oh hahaha... great example, I felt like I was really there listening, heck it's even raining down here today.
Yeah my local is exactly the same. Worse but thursday nights when they take requests from the senior citizens home up the road. SENIOR CITIZENS! |

Oh, I loathe those sellers of "air guitars" on eBay.
Yeah, big joke, ha ha! Not seen that one before.
They must be brain dead if they think it's funny. It certainly isn't original or novel.
I usually send the seller a message with a few choice insults. |
