Competition in Milwaukee

I take it as my responsibility to keep the Milwaukee area appraised of all karaoke related experiences. I take that responsibility seriously. And I do sometimes venture a little bit beyond the domain of karaoke. For example, I have taken great pleasure in providing Milwaukee with the single largest collection of pictures of Milwaukee area people playing air guitars during karaoke performances. With no less than thirty-three pictures, this blog stands as a testament to fine art of inflatable air guitar playing during karaoke performances.

It is in this spirit that I am proud to inform my audience of a competition that is coming to Milwaukee. The competition is kinda similar to karaoke in that it provides a venue for public narcissistic behavior. It is kinda more similar to playing the inflatable air guitar in that it has the word "air" in it, and that both can be done with an inflatable prop.

I am, of course, talking about the Air Sex World Championship. The Milwaukee Air Sex Championship will be held at Stonefly, 735 E. Center Drive, on May 5th.
