Here, for your listening & viewing pleasure, is the conversation with Mike Gaines, who with is wonderful wife Shannon are the amazing people behind Vau de Vire Society - and though the closest classification of what they do hovers somewhere near "Circus", it is far, far more than that. Mike comes up with an interesting description later in the conversation, so listen closely for that...

I caught up with Mike shortly after his return from a nationwide tour, and i must admit - it's an exceptional conversation, and I really dig it. We hit well on a couple reasons I created CultureFlux - those things that were the reason for this crazy dream. 

If you're a performer, either old or new, this is definitely a must-listen. The ones who have been around for a while will chuckle at some of the things in empathy, and the newer ones might learn some things that could be valuable down the road.

 We also talk about how strange it was... how little the rest of the world, the 'regular' people, know of our existence. How little they know of the amazing people all over the world who have found the courage, made the sacrifices, (and in my case, even been called "delusional" by my parents) in order to follow their heart and fight like hell to make their dreams a reality, and are filling the world around them with wonder, beauty... and perhaps even inspiring others to do the same.

CultureFlux is my gift to the world, from the performer who is looking for inspiration, to the dreamers that say "someday...." & especially to the rest of the people - the "regular" ones, the "suits", to let them know that we're out there, everywhere- and we want to fill your hearts with wonder again. We've been waiting for you, come on out and play - make "someday" today!

So welcome, come on in and enjoy this interview with my dear friend Mike, as well as all the others.

In honor of the dream, and all the dreamers who are making this world more beautiful,
