That's a really cool song, I have it playing in another window while surfing elsewhere.

Wow, that was beautiful. That photo at the end with the streaks of light is very cool, too.

That's Fuego and his girlfriend! We gave him a ride to Cruz Bay. He invited us to come and party with him and drink "Magical Mushroom Tea"... :roll:

I agree, Wakey. Does anyone know who the artist is who is singing the song?

Cool!

We saw people doing this several times while on VG last year, often on decks of sail boats. (I question the wisdom of balls of fire on a boat.)

Ha!

Seriously, we saw fire dancers/whirlers at least 6x in 10 days. The first time we saw someone on a boat, I thought a grill was on fire, then I realized it was on the bow, then the boat cruised close enough that I could see the person.

We saw them on the sand at the beach bar around Halloween last year, they had at least 6 people performing and it looked really cool in the dark.

One thing that stands out is how often I smelled singed Rasta hair during their performance :lol:

Nice folks though.
