Eric Melin is the type of guy who’s waiting at the hotel with cookies when the van pulls up. He’s the type of guy who gets you free passes to AMC’s flagship theater in Kansas City. He’s the type of guy who’s always smiling.

MEAN MELIN, Eric’s alter ego, is a world class son of a bitch….

Here is the video from Central Standard’s first videocast EVER. Proud to say US Air Guitar broke their cherry on this one - and received numerous complaints! Hilarious stuff.

This one features air guitar author/speaker/legend Bjorn Turoque, World champ Hot Lixx Hulahan, US National champ Romeo Dance Cheetah, and 3-time regional champ Mean Melin
