Hello,
Last week I've performed at the Burnaby Village Museum, a lovely recreation of a 1920s village and train station, everyone was dressed well.... like the 20s and I was wearing my bright fluo Super Weirdo costume ! Children were wondering what was I doing there and I answered: well... I just walked into my fridge and fell into a time warp that brought me here, I'm from 2056 !
VANCOUVER OLYMPICS
A dream come true: I've already had 2 requests to perform for the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Games ! Entertainment during the Olympics is a one in a lifetime opportunity and I'm sure it'
ll be great fun !
That's it for the news,
See you later 'gator.

Super Weirdo - Opening Act for Hollywood Celebrities Dead Man's Bones concert
Hi, Saturday I performed as the opening act for 2 Hollywood actors ( Ryan Gosling and Zach Shields ) at the Venue nightclub in Vancouver. The 2 actors started their own band called Dead Man's Bones, a melodic ensemble with beautiful melodies and a little bit creepy graveyard-nightmare-ghost subjects for their lyrics, perfect for this time of the year right before halloween.
The music was great, they even had a children choir with them, the place was packed, I'm now hooked up with an agency from Chicago, U.S.A., everybody loved my performance - it was a great night !
See ya later !

October 2009 News !
Hello everyone,
It's been a month since my last post so here are my last updates.
It's been a lot of fun performing at the Lower Lonsdale Fall Festival, Hike for Huntington fundraiser and Richmond Lantern Festival. I got a call from an agency in Chicago and got a show booked as the opening act for the Dead Man's Bones concert on October 24th. Actor Ryan Gosling (Oscar-nominated "The Notebook""The Believer" etc...)
It is a huge opportunity and may lead to more touring in the U.S.A. so I'm pretty excited about it.
As for training, I've been able to juggle 21 times in a row on top of my ladder, and have been practicing a lot with bounce juggling balls (juggling while bouncing balls on the floor).
I have also created a study guide for school students to review before and after my school performances, to make the show educational. This was mandatory for my application to Artstarts in school, a talent booking agency for B.C. schools.
That's it ! I will let you know how the Oct. 24th went .
Take care !

Super Weirdo at Az-Zahraa Mosque and Islamic Centre Sept 21st
Hello everyone,
Yesterday was a premiere for me as I got invited to perform at Az-Zahraa Mosque and Islamic centre in Richmond, B.C., to celebrate the end of Ramadan.
Everyone was wearing their most honorable suits and traditional outfits, and the day was filled with warm handshakes and smiles.... and of course ice cream, cotton candy and a delicious buffet.
As of training my priority is still mouth juggling and training to juggle while balancing on my 6 foot ladder, this weekk I've been able to juggler 3-5 times before falling, I will progressively increase my goal by 2 per day. I always aim for 105 times in a row with any trick before presenting it to an audience, sometimes even 210 times in a row, to make sure I can perform the trick anytime during a show without dropping

Coho Festival September 13th and training update
Hello everyone,
Yesterday I was performing at the Coho Salmon Festival. It was quite an adventure getting to the location. I had to hike uphill in Capilano River Regional Park with my suitcase full of juggling equipment !
The setting was beautiful, right on a hiking trail, people would walk by and cross through a cloud of bubbles while I was performing crystal balls manipulation - Contact Juggling- behind my bubble machine, which created lots of smiles from all the festival goers.
The major accomplishements in my training in the last week has been balancing and walking on my 6 foot ladder without holding it with my hands so I can start juggling fire with my free hands. I did 182 consecutive steps. I've have been training everyday even even rain and snow since January 2009 for that trick and had a lot of chin and knees injuries (minor), so it is really rewarding the see it evolving.
So as of today I will start training with 3 balls and try to juggle on top of my freestanding ladder.
I'll let you know how it goes !

What are juggling balls filled with ?
So, I have been juggling balls for years and was never really concerned about what was in them to give them such a great feel and smooth catch.
Until today, when a mouse invaded my home looking for shelter for the winter season and wrecked 3 of my juggling balls to find bird seeds, a universally acclaimed gourmet meal for the mouse community of planet Earth.
Well, now I know, you know and the whole world knows the biggest secret of professional juggling equipment manufacturers.... bird seeds !
