The 1st annual sideshow gathering was a tremendous success. So, it should come as no surprise that nearly everyone reutrned to Wilkes-Barre, PA in 2003 in an effort to outdo it. Once again, the gathering boasted many of the top names in sideshow performers, enthusiasts, and historians. And, the sword swallowers assosciation once again attempted a world record breaking 'big swallow' - but came up just a few blades short. Still, when this many of the few (approx 70 or so worldwide) living and performing sword swallowers get together on the same stage it is a momentous occassion. |

| For my show this year, I had two very distinct pleasures. First, I debuted a new act: The Blockhead Blowgun, whereby I shoot darts out my nose. And second, I opened for Harley Newman - Harley has been an inspiration to me and I have always respected his show. |
