Tim Granlund rocks a military theme and goes by the nickname of "Six String General" in his quest to reach September's Air Guitar World Championships in Finland, the Washington Post reports. The 23-year-old Granlund faces his first challenge this Wednesday in the D.C. round of the
U.S. Air Guitar Championships (if you're so inclined, you can
buy tickets here). He'll have 60 seconds to win over the judges and move on to the next round of competition. He gives the Post insight into his air guitar strategy and says he's working on his signature move, the "hump jump." Granlund also talks shop, describing his air guitar as "a vintage thing ... it's got one of those triangular-looking deals going on. It's pink, totally wild and crazy."
