Hello Everyone!
My name is Derek and I am a pyro enthusiast of all types, including consumer fireworks, professional fireworks and stage pyrotechnics. I am originally from New York but have temporally relocated to the state of Maine for college. I currently work in the event production industry as a stagehand, audio technician, lighting tech/electrician and Live Sound engineer, and have some training and experience with proximity pyrotechnics for use in theatre and live concerts. I have also done some backyard pyro over the years and am looking forward to building a small backyard consumer show this summer. I love learning more about pyro from this fourm and contributing to some discussions! Thanks!

Welcome pyrokid16! Beautiful part of the country you live in. Not very pyro friendly as I understand it.

Welcome Derek! Im about to dabble a bit in the stagehand work here in Philly. Im looking forward to it. Trying to dip my hands in as many cookie jars as I can.
I currently work in real estate, pyro, electronic music production(techno), and the upcoming stagehand work. Glad to have you aboard.

Welcome to PyroTalk Derek.
If anyone asks you what the difference between Duct Tape and Gaffers Tape is---the correct answer is "about $8.00 a roll more for the gaffers tape".

Welcome aboard. I love Maine, actually going up to Boothbay Harbor in July. Fireworks are illegal, except Rockets and arial stuff i think. And weed, weed is legal too, ha!

Welcome Derek. I really miss Maine, It's been a while since I was there. We have a few stores that carry our product if you are looking for something different. You can find AFW items at Newport Fireworks and Maine fireworks
