I'm a Performer now!!!
I'm starting tomorrow at a theme park, previously owned by six flags, and I'm basically getting paid to trick, and breakdance!!
My pay is $95 a day for rehersals, and $110 a day for actual performances. I work about 5-7 days a week.
Cepopeye might be working with me too. We'll see.
I'd say that this is pretty close to a trickster's dream job.
Wow. sweetness. What does it take to become a performer especially at an amusement park? and btw, wheres the Denver gathering sampler of you guys and Ambitrixterous?

Well, actually they found my tricking vid on myspace, and asked me to work for them. Otherwise, I guess just apply in person.
The denver gathering wont be for aboot four months, but it'll be in the littleton area, I believe. (South of downtown denver)

Do you have a routine yet, if you do what is it? This is the kind of thing I wanted to do when I get a little older, maybe as a summer job.

HA HA! Well played...
CONGRATULATIONS (again) Tai! I'm seriously going to try to do something similar at the 6 Flags here in GA once I get my shit skraight with my knee.
I expect a detailed update this evening, BTW. What your responsibilities entail, the type of performance, your penis size and width, whether you have nice grass to trick on or if it's concrete, etc. :wink:

You don't need to be that good to enter in the circus here in Quebec. The only thing that is gonna be hard is when you gonna be inside the circus! Then you better work or you will be fired faster than you tough. They slept sometimes at a hotel that I was working before. They finnished to work around 10pm and was going to work at 5am!

Damn, that's sick man!!!
Just wondering, as far as pay goes, how many hours a day do you have to work? Just so we can determine hourly wage.

Haha! Apparently, I now work every day with Cepopeye, and Danny Perez every day! This day keeps getting better and better!
As it turns out, the show involves Tricksters, Bboys, Parkour guys, BMX riders, and Skateboarders. We've basically got some of the best athletes in denver, on our crew.

hahahaha! That was such an amazingly excellent convo too!
Jon: hey, do you think danny perez would be interested in this job?
Tai: I dunno. I told him about it a week ago, but I'm not sure if he's even interested.
Jon: Well, you should call him then.
Tai: Okay
*on phone*
Tai: Yo Danny! You what's up buddy?
Perez: Dude, tai. I'm friggin looking at you right now....
Tai: What the fuck? *confusion*
Perez: Hey man, look to your left.

Tai, what was that name you came up with for me "Danbi Perezterous?" I'm not sure if I remember it correctly but it was all sorts of nuts. Anyways yes it is quite the interesting job... I WILL say however that it had one hell of a boring orientation for "any and all potential employees" (even though the performers of this show are to be under contract of SRO associates, NOT the actual park) in which they attempted to make us all understand what it means to be a helpful employee. Here's a gem:
speaker: "guys, look around for guests who need help, like if you saw this little girl..."
*puts image of lost-looking little girl up on screen*
speaker: "you'd go up to her and say?"
Cepopeye: "want some candy?"
