Hundreds of long-haired rockers have set a new world record for the largest number of people playing air guitar simultaneously.440 people strummed their hearts out on imaginary instruments during the recent 2009 Download festival in Leicestershire to take the record.
The event was organized by EA to promote their upcoming game Brütal Legend and wiped the floor with the previous record of 318 air guitarists.
All of the rockers were watched by an official adjudicator as they played along to Motorhead’s “Ace of Spades.”
One of the rockers said: "It was great out there, but I don't know if you noticed the guy next to me was out of key."
If you fancy proving your Air Guitar credentials the official UK Air Guitar Championships 2009 is being held on 7 August at the 02 Academy Islington.
