hey!
First of all, this is the first time i hear about this thing at the SBE, I seriously didn't know that, thanks Nate for keeping this for you I appreciate. I'm still wondering how my shots could have bother them in such a big place but, well I guess I don't care.
I had the same trouble with artistic billiard first, then I practice 3 cushion and play the guys. I'm now in their team lol Most of the time it's just misunderstanding, not disrespect, especially for me, never disrespect any players, what I'm doing is not even pool lol As for the results,
I came 7 on my first world championship of trick shot, loosing against number1 so it's not a bad result. Then, I won a local tournament in 3 cushion, beating people who plays for 30 years. a week ago I cam 2nd in the Vienna Artistik cup, international players and only got beaten by the guy who holds a european record. Not too bad I guess... And for the following events, i'll play in vegas a little fun trick shot tournament, which don't means that much to me because almost all my shots are forbidden. Actually the biggest one is coming on the carom table, i'll compete against' the 7 biggest stroke in the planet in this http://www.juanjotrillescup.com/AP/CM.aspx?id=24
oh and btw, the shots in the video has been done in 2 days when I was having some free time. I'm telling you, 1 out of 1000 is not something I do for almost all the shots. For example I'm going to have a big interview in a german magazine. The guy thought it was fake so he decided to come see if it was true or not. I can tell you he wasn't disapointed when I did a double masse on my 2nd try...
Philly isn't known for 3-cushion, but there are a few places with tables. Drexeline Billiard Club (Jimmy Caras' old hangout) has two heated Chevillottes, but I don't know their current condition. The USBA Room Finder page for Pennsylvania lists another place called Tacony Palmera Billiard Club as having 4 unheated tables, but I've never been there. You might also check the room finder for NJ rooms near Philly, but I think most places with carom tables are farther north closer to NY.
Btw, Philly is only 2 hours or so from Flushing, NY, so if you've never been to Carom Cafe - i.e. the capital of 3-cushion billiards in America
I don't know if it's too early for you to make it, but Carom Cafe is having an open 3-cushion event during the last weekend of July (28-31) that should include some international players in addition to top US talent. If you think you might make it up for a visit while you're in PA, just send me a PM and I can put you in touch with some friends/players to meet there. Depending on scheduling, I bet you could arrange an exhibition as well, if you're interested.

Damn, if I had knew I would have take my flight to match with these dates...My 3cushion is really getting better but I guess it's easy when you fall in love with this game like I did. I'm really thinking about making a trip to the carom cafe, should be interessting...
oh and to finish, I know I've haters as well as fans, but all what I'm doing is for pool and billiard in general. I could easily stop making videos now,I don't see anyone getting better than I in this youtube stuff (Not to seems too confident, it's just a personal point of view). Nate and I are surely loosing sales on the DVD because of this, but to my mind, it would be so pointless to have so many ideas and not to share them. Everything i've accomplished was done with passion in order to give pool another vision and as long as I will have this feeling I'll always analyse people 's reactions (good and bad) to perfect my shots
