Dee on the other hand has a small, tiny bio that you can read here.
What about Bob? Until his new costumes are designed, he will not appear in any new photos.

Eunice Park (Unispark) has been spinning poi
for two years. Her fascination for all things pyro has since spread to staff, fans, and
sword. During daylight hours, she names things for a branding and design firm. When not
being a word or fire geek, she can be found populating various dance floors around the
city, riding (and cursing) the MUNI, singing, slurping pho, or trying to be taller.

"where do i start... i am a 21 year old,
two sided, indecisive, uncontrolled, gemini who grew up in the land of ire (ireland). i
always knew that i didn't fit in very well in my country, there was something about me,
i just had a different frame of mind than most people. i was sick of the same old s***
day in day out.... so thats why i decided to move to the coolest city in the states......
san francisco... since i arrived here i have indulged in what this place has
to offer.. so now, i surf, i f***** love surfing, its very meditive and spiritual for me,
i have always loved the ocean, i have always been drawn to it, and to hitch a ride on
mother earths raw kinetic energy is a rush. about the future though, i only have one goal.. and
that is to see everybit of this amazing world that we are on, cause it just clicked with
me, why doubt your goals and dreams , when at the end of the day we are all on a big ball
spinning around space.... it gets stranger the more you think about it.."

Tricia O'Connor aka "Sam" was born in
Transylvania and raised by a pack of pyromaniac, gypsy werewolves. As all of her
ancestors were burned at the stake, she has always had a special relationship with fire.
Her legendary clumsiness has been inspirational to countless others. Contrary to popular
belief, Sam was actually the catalyst for the creation of Burning Man when Larry Harvey
witnessed her on fire during a "performance". Now, the reclusive Sambot only ventures
out to spin fire staff on various lower Haight rooftops (well past midnight). This will
be her first public performance.
Born and raised in Callan, Co. Kilkenny,
Ireland and moved to San Francisco in 2001. Since moving here the creative person that
I have always been moved to a higher level. Painting, costume making and dancing are
the things that I love to do most. I learned to fire dance in 2003 after being blown
away by all the performers at Burning Man the previous year. Since then I have performed
in Burning Man Fire Conclave, The Crucible Fire Arts Festival, San Francisco Fire Arts
Expo and numerous private parties around the city and surrounding areas."Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today!"
