Before I go - CdS touring UK soon, go see a show if you haven't before - an amazing spectacle.

Saw the Drallion show here a couple of weeks ago - Was pretty amazing. Especially the chick that opened, doing the contortionist/flexibility routine while balanced on one hand on the end of a long pole. :bow: Many impure thoughts were thought, but quickly dismissed as she looked about 14.

I think I've seen the video.

Seriously though, saw CdS in Geneva 5 years ago. Not my usual thing but stunning nevertheless.

Sorry to go a tad off topic, but we saw Billy Smart's Circus a few months ago.  The 3 year old loved it, and so did I.  Very good, but in a tent and not as grandissimo.

Sounds personal but you're not selling it....I still think a big top 'll be better
