Greetings, Captain!

Fire-spinning is also known as poi (*not* the Hawaiian dish) or meteors.

It is critical when booking a fire act to ask detailed questions about
how experienced they are, their safety practices and precautions, and
their amount and proof of insurance coverage (and what it covers). You
will also want to get a few references from them of people who've
hired them -- and be sure to follow through checking their references.

I've located a few Fire Spinners who are located near the Vermont area.

Very thorough, with some nice additional info not expected. 
Professional and friendly.  Thanks.

So who did you end up hiring, and how would you rate them? :)

Hi,

I booked Michael Kevin Farrell out of Boston.  HIs website is
www.poispinner.com.  I was really pleased, all the way from his
enthusiasm to get details worked out to the actual show.  He also
brought a lady named Joanna along which added a really nice touch and
made for quite the romantic vibe.  I would recommend them highly.
