No Air Guitar Allowed is a novel by American author Steve Weinberger.

Background

Weinberger said it's a spoof about typical concert goers which has a similar premise to Dazed and Confused, Detroit Rock City, and Get Him to the Greek.[1]

Reception

The Pulse Magazine said the book is "layered with highly entertaining satirical chapters."[2] Isamu Jordan at The Spokesman-Review said "some of his ideas for concert etiquette might seem a little uptight."[3]

Film adaptation

Steven Mark (Weinberger) and his brother wrote a screenplay based on No Air Guitar Allowed called Concert Heroes. Principal photography is scheduled to begin January 28, 2026 in San Diego, California. The cast includes Chris Kattan, E. G. Daily, and Chad Wolf with music from Carolina Liar.[4]
