Bend, OR article
If Neil Young were the godfather of grunge, then Tim Cridland, aka Zamora the Torture King, might just be the godfather of the modern circus sideshow. But the comparison might be a little more accurate if Neil Young had played lead guitar in Soundgarden, which is the equivalent of what Zamora has been doing in the alternative circus business since the early 1990s when he helped form the infamous Jim Rose Circus with a small group of throwback performers

A review of Lenora Claire's Friday the 13th party at the Houndini Mansion, w/mention of Zamora the Torture King




June 13, Lenora Claire B-day at the Houdini Mansion
"Please join me this Friday the 13th at the legendary *Houdini Mansion* located at 2400 Laurel Cyn for my massive birthday spectacle 8pm-1am which is being filmed for French tv (Canal Plus).
Oh and I almost forgot to mention there will be circus performers, monkeys, and a moon bounce...ooh la la! Parking can get kind of crazy as there are only 60 spots at the mansion so you may want to consider carpooling or parking at the bottom of the hill and taking a $5 taxi ride up.
xo,
Lenora"

Zamora on Philly List

Columbus, OH March 17th
Saturday night in Columbus, OH at the Hell City Tattoo Festival.

For one night only, Zamora the Torture King and Flexx the Rubber Boy are reunited after almost a decade.

Some of you remember when the Torture King toured coast to coast in the US and Canada with Zamora's Touring Stunt show. Flexx the Rubber Boy was on every one of those tours. People who saw these shows said they have never seen a show like it. before of since. None of today's "MySpace Sideshows" comes close to Zamora's show that toured in the late 90's.

Flexx and Zamora went their separate ways; Zamora to a Las Vegas Casino show and Flexx hanging out with the likes of Kobe Bryant and Cirque de Soleil.

At 8pm at the Hell City Tattoo Convention in Columbus, OH the classic team is back together for one night only.
