I came into this sideways, like most people who are honest about it.
Before anything happens, someone has to hear the difference between a man who's certain and a man who's performing certainty. Most are performing. You can tell in the first ten seconds.
I don't collect fans. I keep a very short list.
I'm not gentle about it. I'm precise. That's the difference, and it's why people come back.
I'm based in Europe and travel when a booking makes it worth it. English, Russian, Serbian — one of them will do.
