Poi jobs

One thing, if I'm doing it, I'm good enough to need more than 25, especially for fire. When you're good, you can get way more than 25 bucks. There is actually a thing called "Alive" at some non-denomination church near me and I think I'll perform there later for some publicity.

25 is for the LED/glowsticks poi, i can raise it to 30 would that be alright cuz the fire eating costs 35 for an hour. so if they see that ur 35 and something else is 35 theyll go with what they can get more out of. So let me know

Well, it also depend on how much I'm doing. Like how many performances at the same party. Also because I'm gonna be learning staff. I am also determined to learn serious glowstringing before my prom so that may take up a lot of my time instead for a while.

are you kidding me? Your charging 35 for fire eating...? The hell...? Fire eating is hardly spectacular. You're making fire disappear...
And I've seen detroit's spinning. Ima say that he'd deserve more than that. He's pretty good and growing better.

Here's a question. What's your safety policy?

if u read my website ull it its 35 and hour broken up into small groups so it isnt 35 dollars for like a song length or anything its for a whole hour. So b4 u start saying stuff make sure u have everything right. And u may have seen him spin but i havent yet. Its one of the requirements to getting a job with me, i have to see some photos, a video, pics of ur self, and alot of other information. So yea think twice b4 posting and make sure u get ur facts in order and know everything. And to clear everyhting up about the video on the video page of my website was tooken when i was less then a year old at performing. The two on the first page are or my other performer TOX (the first link) and of me (second link, and still not a year old at it)
Thanks

Um sorry your site says light shows, do you only do glow? In the UK you need to have public liability insurance to do shows with fire legally (cover up to £5 Million for council work) and that's quite expensive, please tell me you aren't doing fireshows without insurance Professional performers have all manner of health and safety aspects to adhere to which cost them a lot of money and for which they pay to earn a livlihood, average cost per hour - (UK price changed via exchange rate) $500 to cover cost of travel, insurance, fuel and living.

Please be careful, one fire started by an uninsured performer can have terrible repercussions on the professionals in the same sector. Not to mention the massive legislative costs YOU would face if anyone was hurt or property damaged.

"But Alan, won't you please think of the Children!"

"Children, Petunia? From where I stand, I see no children. Only mere memories of loved ones, squatting over Cactii in the desert of hopelessness. Only the pain and suffering of having splinters of wood forced into your eyes by a squint-eyed seal in a Nazi officer's unform. The rest is too painful for me to recall".

"Umm... ok."



There's a lot you could learn from this.

ummmmm ok u would need to explain this to me, but i hope other posters will know that this is to find people that want to perform for money in my business that lives in other states
Thanks

Have you thought what it might mean backwards?

/cryptic

im srry i stayed up all night so my brain isnt working well could u just explain it please lol

The wise man explains with an air of mystery.
The foolish man explains in riddles.



I'm sorry you stayed up all night too.
I slept very well, though I think that that is more to do with my leaking gas fireplace than anything else.

Lol you posted earlier that its 35 dollars an hour. Still not spectacular enough to put as a higher price as fire spinning. Again, your eating fire. Poi is far more spectacular even for one song, Especially with how good some of these people are that your trying to recruit. I get that you have to see them spin. That's a duh. I'm saying 30 dollars for a good spinner is hardly worth it. I'm sure if advertized correctly and quality good enough, you could get at least 50 if not more. So far it seems like I've known everything that you've told me...

Lol okay, then change your video, cuz right now you look really really unprofessional. If your better now, put better videos on. Otherwise, I'd recommend getting somebody else on there. B/c those are really unimpressive. Relax a bit dude, if you cant take criticism and skepticism, howr you gonna perfect a business? Most people on this site are friends or very good people, you should understand the skepticism. I wouldn't want to see any of them screwed by your business if it's not professional or safe. Plus at the rates your setting, it's hardly worth it for many performers on this site. You can say perform for money, money enticing people, but more details otherwise people will take this apart.
Sry, this bothers me. It's taken, not tooken.

You still haven't answered the insurance or safety questioning. Mynci is very correct when he says that you could be in for a lawsuit with a fire accident.

please note, the spinner wouldn't even get the $35, each spinner gets about 10-13 dollars, and the left over 1-4 dollars get put into a company expansion fund...

it's a great idea, but you need to beef up the plan before you are getting into the performances themselves,

i'm trying to start up a similar thing here, i've been spinning 5 years and with my dad's help [he's a financial advisor] i'm putting together a plan but it's bloody hard work!

The amount from each show that is to be set back for expansion is only 10 dollars flat. I havent got any insurance or anything yet cuz i havent added any fire poi to the business. And i can take criticism and all that its just that last night i didnt go to sleep at all and got alil bit cranky, srry if i POed anyone off or anything but yea

I lol'ed so hard.

Wasn't that movie 'Gummo' made in Ohio?

I have nothing to add in regards to the initial topic of this thread, but I must chime in about one of the most disturbing movies I've ever seen "Gummo" -

The movie "Gummo" was based on the village of Xenia Ohio, but it was actually filmed in Nashville TN. Xenia isn't as bad as the movie portrays. It's more like a small, closed minded, highly religious, low employment, low skilled, low education, speed trap for a community that you would never want to live in. (I grew up not to far from Xenia, near the much cleaner, friendlier village of Yellow Springs)

Not only do they have Gummo, but they also had one of the largest tornadoes in Ohio history (F5) rip their village apart in
1974. The village of Xenia has had some bad luck.

Not all of Ohio makes one want to commit suicide (as one feels after watching Gummo), but I can't wait to move away from this flat, highly populated state!

Ok I am starting to ramble on now... thanks for your time, back to my brightly colored time traveling space ship.

lol huzza!

Off topic eh? Sorry I thought I parked my space ship in Social Chat, not Social Discussion. Better get back to topic, lets see, where did the chat leave off? Ohh that's right, some were crushing a sixteen year old's dreams of self employment. I wish you all peace and good flow.
