Air drumming
It's no secret that everyone looks like an idiot while trying to play air guitar. Even if you know how to play guitar strumming your stomach just doesn't look cool. That must be why air drumming has become the new faux instrument.
I took up air drumming a while ago, I think I was drunk, but I discovered that I was actually fairly good at it. I'd seen the occasional air drumming before, mostly on car steering wheels, but last week I saw it on TV. I was watching the show Rock Star, not the Mark Wahlberg movie but the reality show with INXS, and there's Dave Navarro playing air drums, and then all the guys in INXS are playing air drums too. I think just looks cooler than air guitar, even Navarro who is so very cool and a damn good guitar player would look like an idiot playing air guitar. But air drumming looks cool and gives everyone a chance to be Ringo or Tommy Lee. Now that I know I share an air instrument with INXS and Dave Navarro I feel a connection, like we're the same, except that they can probably play the real drums too.
It's hot and I'm obviously having strange thoughts...
