Thanks to Khogan you can now see the videos of Perseids , Solar Storm , Brocade Palm and Colour Time Rain on the Canadian fireworks consumer list .
The videos are shot from 2 directions - the first part is shot from head on at a good distance the second is shot from right beside the cake aimed straight up . Don't see many companies doing that .

For the Last 2 years we had 4 going up at once . It is an awesome piece , long lasting ( 1 minute long ) but the Ghost effect in Crazy ghost is amazing . The ghost defy gravity and just hang there until the coloured bursts scare them away . It works really well if you want to slow your show down a bit before some faster items rip the sky . I tried supernatural - their ghost effect is more like a flying fish effect - they disperse faster . As to where to get them - Maxpower has buy one for $35.99 2nd one for $23.99 - so basically 2 for $60

I have to agree with Markhampyro - 007 would be a great replacement for Glittering Brocades - it is also retails for $20 less .

I was talking to one of my guys that just got back from doing a pyro expedition and figured we would share some tips . Will add to it - if we think of more !
- Go to the different manufacturers websites and print their price lists off . Ie Vulcan , Royal , BEM , Hands , Mystical . Bring the price lists with you . If they don't have a price list email the company and ask . ( You can't see if you received a deal if you don't know what the prices should be. )
If you are going to buy a lot from one shop . Try emailing them a list of what you want before you go . The places we deal with will actually put those items aside for you and all you have to do is pick them up and pay for them . Makes it easier for you and easier for them .
Check to see if they only accept cash or debit or credit cards before you get there .
Order early if it is a popular item .

They usually carry fireworks in store as well. Usually kits but some have aerial assortment ( 6 tubes of red air colour bomb , green air colour bomb , gold fish , gold glitter comet , snapping dragon and silver tiger tail ) last year was going for $19.99 should of been $29.99 . They also had premium barrage assortment ( Canadian Pride , Battle of colours and dancing butterfly ) Last year for $29.99 should of been close to $48 . Not sure what they are carrying this year - when we do will update .

Hey If my math is right there is actually $2067.42 worth of pyro in that list if you bought it from Mystical - with no discount - not including taxes .
The prices for some items from phatboys are a bit high ie Bullet train retails for $3.99 not $5.99 .

Hey !
Redbomb does have BEM's Gold Palm - it is on page 9 in the vertical cake section going for $32.39 - which is an ok price for it about a 10% savings . Reason you might not of found it lately - It was re-introduced this year .
I have tried some of the new stuff and it is excellent - Most of my shows are a mix of new and classic items - as you have a number of classic items in there throw in something new . Fortune Teller at $44.99 is about a 10% savings - should retail for $50

Hey Dbrodz !
I agree with Pyro Boss about adding Gold Palm or Wild Thing - Excellent items . Or you could add my new personal favourite Fortune Teller - Again a KILLER item .
Now I notice you are using a bunch of 5 ball roman candles - 10 ball romans candles usually have better height and since you are fanning them they will last a bit longer .
Enjoy your show .
