Despite the lack of major news headlines, there is nonetheless a great deal of small projects and events occuring here surrounding the shows and whatnot.
First, for those that enjoy the pictures that I post, there is a beautiful new picture of myself and Glenn Crawford blowing a tandem fireball. It’s simply spectacular. Our two styles of firebreathing combined to make a dramatic image. I’m known for the shear size and mushroom-cloud quality of my fire blows, and Glenn is known for the long duration, and you can certainly see here how the size and duration combined to make a beautiful cloud of fire.
The shows are going very well, and Steve Taubman and I are doing some remarkable mental work, including a great deal of psychometry and direct mindreading. In addition to the two-person shows, I’m working on new flyers for the solo act.
August 28th – 31st are the dates for the 2nd Annual Sideshow Gathering and Sword Swallowing Convention, to be held at the Ramada Plaza Hotel in Wilkes-Barre, PA. This years attendees will include many faces from the industry who couldn’t make it last year, as well as the return of many well-known names from last year. I’m greatly looking forward to it.
