Comments: One of the coolest things about doing a street show is that anything can happen. This is both super cool and can also be one of the most challenging performance realities that any performer can face. 99% of the time when you go out, it’s business as usual and you’re able to pull off a show with out a hitch. Once in a blue moon something truly bizarre happens that can really leave an impression.

Eric Amber sat down with Magic Brian to describe the Perfect Storm of events that transpired after he and Derek Flores did their first ever show in Washington Square Park in New York City; a show that netted them twenty three dollars and this incredible story!
