For those who don't know, I perform stunt shows on stand-up jet skis. The shows last about a half hour and include synchronized routines, solo freestyle demonstrations, ramp jumping, and fire. It became my summer job in college, and I still do it occasionally for fun.

Here are a couple of pictures from old shows to give you an idea of what we do;

Whoa!! Impressive dude!! And to think, this whole time I just thought you were a big dumb idiot!

Wow Bill! You sure are a flamer!!

Wish I could come see sometime, though!

Do you do Michigan at all??

Did you not see the photos? Would a "normal" person do this?

I think you need to do a show at Seafair in Seattle, maybe between heats at the Hydro races.

Note to self: Quit smoking after fueling up the Jet Ski

Actually you're both right - I'm a flaming idiot

It would add a whole new meaning to the name "Lightning Bolt"

About Michigan and Seattle - We all have real jobs now, so we generally do shows within an 8 hour drive of Dallas / Fort Worth. There have been exceptions, so I guess you never know...

WAY COOL DUDE!!! I'm going to try to make at least one of the shows. May have to do Mayfest. I'd love for my son to see you but he'll be in Florida for that and the 14th - that's the KC concert so we'll have to see about that one.

Cool Bill!!!!!! Thanks for sharing!

Are you bringing any toys to Lanier?

Bill, that's awesome! Sure wish I could go.

WOW! I knew you were crazy, Bill. . .but I had no idea!

Seriously, that is awesome. . . I wish I could make a show!

Here are some pictures of one of the other two riders.

Now that's timing!

Mayfest was awesome! The weather was perfect and it was the festival's biggest year ever. Before it was even over, the organizers were asking how they could improve the setup for next year. We were on the local news a few times and made some newspapers as well. Our sponsors hired a professional photographer and I'm waiting on a CD with some awesome pictures. I'll post a few of them when I get them - hopefully early next week.

The Sneaky Pete's date May 14th is a private event. I'm pretty sure the bar will be closed to the public that day. I might be able to get a few passes, so let me know ASAP if you want to come.

We're also doing a show for some drag boat races at Marine Creek in Fort Worth June 19th. The drag boat guys were at Mayfest with us last year and we finalized the deal this weekend.

Stay tuned for more info...

Still waiting for pictures. I'll take my own camera this weekend.

The Sneaky Pete's show is for a Microsoft party. I'm changing the music to to give the show a tropical feel, and I need some ideas. I need 10-12 songs that will play shortly before, during, and after our show. The songs should be upbeat, tropical sounding songs that go together well. I'd like most of them to be songs that everyone will recognize, and mostly non-Buffett. Volcano is the only Buffett song I've got on the list so far.

Any ideas?

Please give the song title and artist name with the version that you prefer...

wow..cool!!!!
