Whip cracking in SoCal

Post by winrichwhips »

I'm going to be in Southern California for the next six weeks performing at the Southern California Pleasure Faire in Irwindale.

I'm staying in Duarte; if any of you want to get together to crack whips or need whip repairs done, just let me know and we can meet up somewhere.

If any of you are interested in coming to the faire, I have 20 free tickets for the fair, but they're only good for the next three weekends. I'll be more than happy to give tickets to any of you that I get to meet in person.

Kind Regards,

Adam

Adam, my girlfriend and I are planning a trip to the Faire on one of the upcoming Sundays. I am very excited to see you perform. If you have a pair of tickets, we would be most appreciative. Perhaps there is a Guinness (or any beverage) with your name on it in exchange.

I will be bringing the Morgan I got from you, and wonder if I can get some pointers. Will this be allowed at faire, or would it have to be done off-grounds?

The Faire is basically where the 605 meets the 210 freeway.

Yup, that's where the fair is, and I'm staying about two miles from the fair site.

Shtick, if you want to meet up sometime on a weeknight to make the tickets-beer exchange, just let me know when and where. There's kind of a lot of people at the fair site, so I think it'd be better for me to give you whip pointers at some other time, maybe at a park near your house.

PS: Here's a link to some pics of me performing at the fair this last weekend (You'll have to scroll down a little and click on 'Adam Crack' to get to the pics)
