Speaking of Amazing People from NACA...


In my previous post, I mentioned meeting some amazing people and seeing some top-notch performers. At the top of that list, were the people who's booth was right next to mine. Atypical Entertainment. When I first arrived at the conference I introduced myself to them, and spoke with them as I would any other group of people whom I would be "booth buddies" with for a few days. Little did I know I was in the presence of world-reknowned performers!

Jason Tardy, and his brother Matthew are jugglers. But not just your normal jugglers. They are high energy jugglers. Their show has been described as X-Games meets Juggling. It also looks a little like Blue Man Group in a way, but even better! The name of their show is Two High Energy Juggling. If you're a college, looking for something new and exciting, you have to check these guys out. They just got back from their 3rd show at the White House and have been on Inside Edition and Fox News, and perfomed at Atlantis Resort for Natalie Merchant!

Jason started Atypical Entertainment and now represents not only himself and Matthew, but several other artists, including Eepy Bird! Have you ever seen the Diet Coke and Mentos Experiment on YouTube? I'm sure you have and these are the guys that started it! They were also in the booth next to me and I was shocked when I realized who they were! They have been on Letterman, Ellen, The Today Show, and Mythbusters. They've also performed at Caesar's Palace (site of my wedding last year), Paris, and Madrid! Like Maui Wowi, they can be the event, or be part of an existing event, so check them out!!
