yo catch my dope yo-yo ing

part two of the busker calvacade...

next up we started watching the yo-yo show - john and rebecca from boston tossing about 100 yo-yos into the air and spinning them about. and goodness, if your mind goes blank thinking about all the cool things that can be done with yo-yos (um, i'm not going there) then you'd be pleasantly surprised. these kids are pseudo-retro-cool and spin a bunch of tricks together that are pretty damn impressive.


look at em go!

if you check out their site you can learn more than you possibly could have wanted to know about their show (the multiple pictures, while cool, do not do something like yo-yoing justice...). however, check out their bios and see that they've branched out beyond the highly competitive yo-yo field to include a number of highly comparable fields. such as... artistry and car magnets. now, the car magnets thing is interesting - basically magnets (wait for it...) for the car.


look - a lemon!


or this one - a cow that allows you to "Celebrate Vermont, dairy, vegetarianism, or just the love of cow."

john, the male of the duo, likes to paint and has his own website to hock his wares which, coincidentally, happen to mostly be yo-yos.




but that's not all! he also likes to paint canvases... with yo-yos...
