Guitar Idol : How could it not exist?
Well the answer is: It couldn’t not exist. Not in this world. Being as there is a reality show for just about anything these days.. I’m surprised this one isn’t on network television stations yet.
Nope. Guitar Idol is a web based reality show complete with 8 shredding judges. Entrants upload videos and submit them for viewer voting heat after heat until the final round of judging takes place. The musical genres range from jazz to rock to blues and, of course, Shred.
Thousands of guitarists will battle for 12 places to perform live on the main stage at the massive London International Music Show in June 2009 and be crowned Worldwide Guitar Idol 2009
The competition has some major sponsors too. The likes of Ernie Ball, Paul Reed Smith and even the mighty Marshall are backing the Idols.
Guitar Idol is free to enter and open to all ages.
