Well, as you all know, I’ve been busy again this summer.  Here it is September already.

Fortunately, I have no performances scheduled for the rest of this year.

As for the Festivals I attended during this past summer, I can honestly say I enjoy each and every one of them.

I will be scheduling performances for next year soon and posting them here as they are scheduled.

You should see this site.  It’s full of beautiful art work by a famous Faery Artist who’s name is Ora Moon.

It’s called The Phookas Gaze.  Please go there and enjoy yourself.  I did.

Don’t forget to look for me at Faerieworlds Summer Festival in Eugene, Oregon on July 27, 28 and 29th..

I’ve added it to my performance schedule for the 2012 season.  This is one of my favorite festivals and I recommend it to anyone who has never been before.

I may be filming some parts of my perfomance at this festival, so if you get a chance to see me, please remember you may be photographed.

Thank you for visiting my Professor Laffmoore site. I have added hyper-links to some of the festivals I have entertained at during the last year or two.

You are welcome to click on any wording that is a different color (other than quotes) and be magically transported to the home page of that particular event.

I hope you enjoy the color and festivities as much as I do.

I would love to know who is visiting my site. Wont you please leave me a message upon your visit? Just click the item on the top of the page which says “Contact The Professor” and I will reply.

The autumn edition of FaerieWorlds was a most exceptional festival.  We had a very fine day to perform and observe.  Everyone was in a grand mood.  We listened to some very good performers who entertained crowds of folks.

I put on some interesting majic shows while Heidi, my newly acquired companion made good use of my balloon pump.

Here is what Heidi had to say about FaerieWorld,

“FaerieWorlds is a wonderful festival that I had the supreme pleasure of participating in. The folk were friendly, and very colorful, characters.
The children were all very interested in Neverland, and of course the Proff. Laffmoore who enchanted them with majic and free balloons 🙂 and the young ones weren’t the only ones interested either!”

(You can read this in “comments” as well.)

Faerieworlds 2011

Wow.  What a bash? Not near the crowd that I anticipated, but everyone had a good time at Faerieworlds.

Wet.  Very wet on Saturday due to the rain that fell on and off most all day. The day started out overcast and it turned to rain as the morning progressed.  Most of the campers entered from the camp areas as the sun began to rise, and they continued to enter the main stage area until 11:00 O’clock or so.  Some were damp and others were dry, but they all came with high expectations for a fun and entertaining day.

Russ and I set-up around 10:30 under the wishing tree where I was sure the children would congregate.  And sure enough they came.  Most of the children were accompanied by their parents, or another older adult.  I began blowing up balloons as the young ones arrived.  (Actually my able bodied assistant Russ ran the air pump.  Russ attended most all the festivals with me this year.  He got good and soaked on this day.)

The most appreciation for my balloon give-a-way was voiced by several mothers who had obviously been camping out overnight and had just gotten up and entered the festival area with their children.  Several comments were made as to how much they appreciate I was there to entertain their kids with free balloons.  The kids loved them and so did the folks.

As the children ran and played with their balloons I was able to attracted the attention of several of the more mature people with some of my famous street majic.

I was able to create a dance mood for one young couple who agreed to be hypnotized, and they loved it.  They kept coming back for more.
