Guitars were raised high after a performance of Deep Purple's Smoke on the Water at the Festival of Friends on August 8, 2009. Hamilton musician Christopher Charles and his band were joined by a legion of guitarists scattered across Gage Park.
This was an attempt to enter the Guinness Book of World Records for most guitars in a jam performance.
NEW! According to the Spectator, the record wasn't broken (we were 77 short) but we did beat Toronto's recent attempt)
Below is a video of the event. We apologize for the extreme close-ups (the camera was stuck on zoom)
