Lou Johnson: JOURNAL

Here's "Cindi-Lou" and our Holiday Bear providing WARMTH on that COLD day. The Fair went on with Lou juggling FIRE and Frosty, Bear, and a Cotton Candy Man adding COLOR to the event. Thank you Rosalie Norton (second from the right) for having us help you See you next year!

I was asked to open up for America's Got Talent Finalists THE ZOOPERSTARS at the BIG celebration at Stamford, CT. With a large yo-yo, I opened up the space needed for the BIG PRODUCTION. Those animals ROCKED!

Thanks to Rodger Dryer and FANTASMA MAGIC, I was brought in to perform my juggling act on the same bill as JEFF HOBSON from VEGAS! He's been on World's Greatest Magic, plus tons of corporate shows and tours around the world. He's a great guy and it was a joy to share the stage with a TRUE PRO!

Here I am drumming up MORE new members of The West Hempstead Civic Association! I'll be in charge of entertainment for The HOLIDAY AT HALLS for the 5th year in a row! It's marked for Sunday Dec. 7, 2008. West Hempstead residents, DON'T MISS IT!

I got a call today from a magician who was too ill to perform at an event in Whitestone. I was in the area and got to his event ASAP. Whew!

Even on stilts, I make people a star! Had a BUNCH of FUN at a Car Show! I heard that they want me back AGAIN for a third year in a row! Can't wait.

I hope everyone had a GREAT 4th of July Weekend. Cindi and I did. I was asked once again to provide stiltwalking for a Verizon store's GRAND OPENING; this time in Westfield, NJ. This makes it the 7th store that my agent Jeff called me for because of the juggling and THE OUTFIT is in the VERIZON COLORS! They love that! And they helped me with my Verizon Cell phone (7 years and I won't switch!) Thanks Verizon!

This is Moontee Simqua from Arizona. I was ASTOUNDED by his ARTISTRY with his Native American Hoop Dance. While I use 4 hoops in my routine, he uses 30 in his! I'll get his link later on so more people can SEE what ART and HISTORY truly is! Thank you, friend.-Lou

After a great run at Green Meadows Farm (see below) I was asked to perform at their Festival of Cultures which toured from Queens to Rhode Island to Conn. and back! When the kids got off the buses to see me on stilts, their smiles were BIGGER than anyone could have imagined. Plus, PRE-SHOW Juggling was EXACTLY what the owner NEEDED.

I was contracted to perform as a stiltwalker/juggler for a car dealership's carnival. Things were great for me but the client was upset that the clown was LATE. The agent called us and said can "Cindi-Lou" the Clown be there to take her place the next day? SURE! This is why booking BOTH "Cindi-Lou" and I on the same job is the SMART CHOICE. We are RELIABLE and save everyone from head-aches! Plus, we use ONE CAR for most jobs together, thus saving you on travel, tolls, parking spaces, etc. Call us for a GREAT PACKAGE of ENTERTAINMENT -Lou

My cousin Lacy has helped me create a You-Tube site and even shot some footage of my juggling and contact juggling at a coffee house in Conn. Thanks Lacy. BTW- you can look at a clip of Lacy preparing for her competitions in The Highland Games.

Cindi and I will be twisting the night away at a balloon jam in L.I. We'll be learning some new things about balloons and having fun along the way.

Here I am OUTSIDE for a New York themed event at Ryder University. Three Card Monte, Chain Swindle, plus other Hustles. They LOVED it. Do the HUSTLE!

I was asked to deal the final table at a BIG Texas Hold 'Em Poker Tournament in NYC. After 20 exciting minutes, we got a winner. Next year will be even bigger.

I got a chance to perform my juggling act for NYC Magicians. We got a great response.

I went to see a lecture on Comedy Magic from Las Vegas Consultant Fielding West. My other friends in Magic took me out to the diner for some dinner and Birthday cake. To all of you, thanks for being my extended family. Your friendship means the world to me.-Lou

After they built a BRAND NEW HILTON HOTEL, (I stayed there. Great beds!), it was time to celebrate with food , Magic, Palm Reading, Music, Characturists, and a Corporate Juggler (me). They LOVED it and will be booking us for their events in the future. It was a lotta FUN!

I loved this look when I saw it on a REAL Nutcracker. Black Pants with Gold down each leg and a newer hat makes this look a bit better. This was my SECOND time at The Smithhaven Mall. Cindi was there with Arts and Crafts for the Kid's Club. Marc was an Elf and of course, Santa was all dressed up for photos.

This was the last day of a SUCCESSFUL run at Green Meadows Farm. LOTS of shows back to back for THOUSANDS of children from Queens and Brooklyn. The kids loved it! So did the STAFF. The picture is blurry but you get the idea.

I met one of the World's Best (and Funniest) Magicians, Jeff Hobson for an intimate lecture on the business of magic. GREAT STUFF, JEFF! Thanks.
