Halloween Act 2023 - Dueling Banjos

The Bellingham Circus Guild's Beastly Frightful Unspeakably Spooky Circus of DOOOOM had its 6th incarnation this Halloween and I was stoked to be a part again (making it 6/6!) The show was a huge hit with so many sell out crowds we had to add a show (which itself went on to sell out.) Circus going regulars had high praise for it and it was a genuine pleasure to be a part of. I feel so lucky that doing this kind of shit is my job.

The video of my act is below. I'm really stoked both on how the act turned out and that the night the videographer came, we didn't have any drops*! In addition to this awesome video, we had a couple of super great photographers! Both Jason and Vitz caught some really fun shots.

As I mentioned, this marks my 6th appearance in the Halloween show. Here are the posts for previous years: 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, and 2022. But without further ado, here's this year's act. I hope you like it!

Fun! Glad you didn't make it creepy with some references to the Deliverance film...
Suggestion for BCGBFUSCoD2024: Maybe add some strategically-placed/-shaped tape onto the fat ends of the clubs so that when the club lights turn on, there appear silhouettes of ghosts, jack-o-lanterns or any number of Halloweeny shapes. I imagine if you did it with white tape (or whatever color the unlit clubs are) it might not even show up until as a surprise when the house lights go out.

Slight update: just showed it to Orión, and he was giggling the entire 3:51 of the video - clearly you have to come back over to demonstrate it in person!
