My new Jobs


So now that I have a couple shows down I have found places in the show that I can help out. I help build the Coffins everyday for Thriller, Blow up a 15ft. balloon the shape of the world, and I am the drum tech. Here are my pictures of my ballooning skills. The first time during the show I had a flash light in my mouth so I could see where I am going. As the balloon deflates it takes two of us to lay on it to get all the air out before the next cue, about 45 seconds. If one guy jumps on one end it inflates the other side. Giovanni is the other person helping me and he did this which caused the balloon to hit me in the face, knocking the flashlight outta my mouth, off the riser, hitting Richie the guitar player and landing on the deck. All this in a matte of seconds. It was a small circus to say the least!
