Man, the 4th was wild over here. Did a show for like 40 people in the cul-de-sac. Had one of those 200-shot rapid fire cakes — thing went off in like 20 seconds flat. Crowd went nuts. Also had a shell lodge in the tube and I thought I was gonna lose a finger lol. Had to tap the tube and it finally went. Gotta remember to clean those tubes between shots. What’s that American Thunder cake? Never heard of it.
Man reading all these lineups makes me want to restock before Saturday lol. I shot most of my good stuff last weekend as a pre-4th warmup. Now Im stuck with just a few fountain packs and some sparklers.
Anyone know if the tent stores are still open this late in the week? I might run by the TNT tent near me and grab whatever theyve got left. Usually by July 1st the selection is kinda picked over but hey something is better than nothing.
Also – anyone else do the thing where you save the biggest cake for the finale and then realize you only have like 2 minutes of show left after it? Every. Damn. Year.
Danny Ive done about 6 containers over the last 4 years. Realistic timeline if everything goes smooth is about 8-10 weeks from order. But you gotta factor in:
– Production time: 2-4 weeks (depends if they have stock or gotta make it)
– Ocean freight: 3-4 weeks (longer if east coast)
– Customs: 1-2 weeks (could be longer if they flag it)Ordering now in June? Id expect early September at best. Maybe August if youre lucky and they have stock ready.
West coast is faster on the water but LA customs can be a pain. Some guys prefer Houston or even Savannah.
Nice lineup! I’m doing mostly World Class this year – picked up their “Sonic Boom” cake and some saturn shells. Also grabbed a few cases of Winda sparklers for the kids. Should be a good night!
