Long time no update. Lots has been going on. I’ve been keeping myself really busy.

CentreFest is a street performers festival that the city of Red Deer puts on every summer. Many of you know I’m originally from Red Deer. CentreFest was actually the 1st festival I was ever paid to busk in. When I was in the festival I was SpandyAndy, but I didn’t dance to music. My skill (if you can call it that) was walking around in Spandex making people laugh.

Now I’ve been ask to return to CentreFest with my new TIGHT/BRIGHT moves. The festival runs from July 31st – August 1st, 2010. It’s my first road gig and it’s my home town. Now I’ve even got to work harder on my show because I’ll be seeing so many old faces.

Recorded by the same person that filmed SpandyAndy at the Pillow Fight.

Thank you Michelle K. for making this cool photoshopped project.

Today while I was dancing around downtown I passed the V.A.G. (Vancouver Art Gallery).
They were having a huge pillow fight event.

There were a bunch of news cameras and personal cameras everywhere.
Hopefully I can find some video of the epic performance.

Keep dancing,
SpandyAndy

Every morning I will wake up and treat my body to a 90min bikram yoga session. This will be for 30days straight symbolizing hard work and determination.

It was my grandpa’s funeral in Calgary on Thursday. Many of my fans tell me I am their hero ; well my grandpa was my hero.

He was born in Poland and lived through the Holocaust where he was beaten and left to die. Once WWII ended and he had the blood removed from his head, he came to Canada to start a new life. When he arrived he worked hard everyday to help give his family a better life. Thanks to his success my family has always been happy.

He was a short man with a really quirky sense of humor . Everything he wanted he worked hard for. I’ll never forget him and promise to try and work as hard as he did for me.

Love you Zaida,
SpandyAndy
