whats this for? if this is for a real Vegas show, then no offence to any of the fsers in the states, but nobody is anywhere near that level

If i were you Adi, i'd explain that to the client and see if you can bring in somebody like Séan, Andrew Henderson or whatever at a very high level who is actually gonna put on a proper performance in part of some big show

If it's something small like a corporate event or whatever then i guess my comment isnt really applicable and any of the US guys will do just fine.. Give Sam (aka Tupac) a shot, that dudes cool :)
If it's a real vegas show, like headlined shit, then I would agree with Dan.
I'm definitely not on andrew/seans level (is anyone on their level?  :grin:)
I'd really have to have more information, I can handle a huge show and put on a good performance, but it really depends on what it is.
BONER!

no offence taken Alex, i really didnt mean to insult anyone either. its just, if the client expects a huge Las Vegas headlining act, i dont think any USA freestylers are capable.

Has any fsers in america done a stage act with a choreographed routine, lights, cameras and a large audience? unless youre used to it, it will be extremely nervewracking. and even if you dont make any drops you still need to have stage presence and charisma to entertain the crowd. its much different than a half-time show or a LP in a shopping mall for eg.

The closest thing I have to that was the talent show at my school (1900 kids showed) I think I did pretty well... I won $100 gift certificate to subway  :grin:
There's an ovbious difference between school and vegas though lol It really really depends on what they want. And I know Alex has a lot of experience performing, I'm sure he could handle it if it was something ridiculously huge
BONER!

You are right :)

Of course its different! A huge difference. Well i know angelo has done some adidas events. Some of the azzams brothers have done big cherograph routines on national tv. I personally have done LP's for the US National games, and the half time show for the MLS all star games, and as well as cheorograph routines for thousands of ppl on stage and tv.

It all depends what they want. I bet it shouldnt be a big problem for most freestylers to handle, since most people will be amazed with easy tricks.

I think Alex will be quite capable for that. He has some sick skills which can be done quite consistently. He had performed in front of many people at LA Galaxy. And a choregraphed routine can be learned.
I think he'll make a great show!

Khoa and Alex :D  Both have the highest allround level in all of US. Oh and Chris Burruss, but I'm not sure if he's done too many performances, unlike khoa and alex

Sorry man, Adi specifically asked for attractive freestylers. Maybe next life :)

Haha I appreciate the shoutout guys but I have absolutely no experience performing, plus I have school... thanks anyway though. Adi, I know that Alex has plenty of experience and Khoa is a great performer... never seen any performances by Sam but I'm sure he could come through for a smaller gig.

I don't wanna sound cocky :( everything you see in my videos (apart from a few lower thingies) I can do 100% of the time. I don't wanna say "I'm the best performer ever blah blah blah" because I'm not. But I can definitely keep a crowd entertained with few to 0 drops...
BONER!
