The Billboard Music Awards (or one of the seemingly endless string of music award shows) was on over the weekend. More awards for Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift and the like. In other words, another show for us old rock and blues guys and gals to avoid. It really makes you start to wonder if lip-syncing pop pablum is all we're going to be served forever.

Then I stumble across 14-year old Tina who has uploaded a video of her doing Eddie Van Halen's Eruption and I stop worrying for at least 90 seconds. Enjoy this young shredder in the video above.

And if you're a musician looking to inspire more kids like Tina, you could volunteer to become a tutor at the Brennan Rock & Roll Academy for Boys & Girls Club kids in Sioux Falls!
