Well that’s just weird! Craig “Hot Lixx Hulahan” Billmeier found his way into the most prestige title known to America: 2006 USA National Air Guitar Champion! Some people, apparently, are just born to rock. Like Bjorn Turoque, that dude seriously rocks. But somehow, through a combination of sheer luck, stupidity, clumsiness and massive air-ti-tude, Hot Lixx is our national champion! A national treasure, some might say. Craig is off to FINLAND for the World Air Guitar Championships in September 2006, and according to AP news, Hot Lixx promises to “Slay” the competition. More info coming soon.

New U.S. Air Guitar Champ Crowned!
After an intense compulsory round, Craig “Hot Lixx Hulahan” Billmeier blew away the competition in NYC with the help of Metallica and a sombrero.
San Francisco’s Craig “Hot Lixx Hulahan” Billmeier took home the title at the fourth U.S. Air Guitar national finals, held in a sold-out Bowery Ballroom in NYC. Hot Lixx beat out fierce competition — including last year’s reigning champion Fatima “Rockness Monster” Huang — with his blustery energy, south-of-the-border style, and technical picking during Metallica’s “Enter Sandman.” His performance was so masterful that the judges overlooked the impressive butt-crushing skills of NYC competitor Andrew “William Ocean” Litz, who is known for his ability to flatten cans of Sparks malt liquor with his tush during performances.
Hot Lixx will head to Finland in September where he’ll represent the United States in the world championships. We hope he’ll fare better than our national soccer team did in the World Cup.
