"The purpose of the Air Guitar World Championships is to promote world peace. According to the ideology of the Air Guitar, wars end, climate change stops and all bad things disappear, if all the people in the world played the Air Guitar. This is why the whole universe is invited to play the Air Guitar for the world peace at the end of the competition."

You didn't have an option for Switzerland, kruijs! I think you're hiding your preference for Alessandro "Mystic Barrito" Veletta from us!

Anyway, who is Alessandro "Mystic Barrito" Veletta?
