The Souzas are personal friends - and long story - I got talked into it... Started back in 1996 or so... because the NYC show is so hard - most guys won't do it only one time... it's way too much work and not enough pay - and a costly town to enjoy. I worked for FREE (paid actually, but donated my pay to the 3 school teachers that worked as pyros)... This show is BRUTAL... and most guys just can't hack the work. I LOVED IT.. because it gave me something to look forward to -- I used to live in NYC -- and I worked out all year just to be able to do this show... My other buddy - Lee (the one pitching the mortars to me) and I had a pinky swear -- that NOBODY could work harder - longer - lift more - throw more - take less breaks -- than he and I - and we were the OLDEST... However... our other buddy Jose - (a drug rep from Albuquerque) kicks our butts... Nobody could work harder than him. Nobody.
