 sion in 1995 for a high school talent show. Justin was looking for a way t
 o be as creative as possible and took the idea of playing buckets\, which 
 was introduced to him in the subways of New York City. Deciding to take th
 e next step was Justin adding more and more instruments to the show and ex
 panding on the New York style of street percussion. The band really starte
 d to take of in 1999 when they were featured on the cover of the USA TODAY
 . Recycled Percussion began touring the country performing over 250 shows 
 a year starting in 2001 and began breaking records in the college market. 
 Receiving awards yearly (6 time national act of the year\, 3 time best maj
 or performer of the year\, 4 time best live act) the band was on fire. Per
 forming colleges\, NBA halftimes\, NFL halftimes\, Corporate Events for ma
 jor companies all over the world it seemed that Recycled Percussion was go
 ing to be around for a long time.\n\nThe group continued to tour for 10 ye
 ars all over the country until it made it's debut on the smash hit televis
 ion show America's Got Talent. The group auditioned with over 100\,000 act
 s and came so close to winning the show and became the highest placed non 
 singing act to ever compete in show history when they finished third. Afte
 r their huge success the group was asked to go in many different direction
 s. With a load of options of what to do next they decided to work with Jer
 ry Springer on a LIVE version of the show America's Got Talent. The group 
 spent 3 months performing at planet Hollywood in Las Vegas and then 1 mont
 h performing the live show at MGM Grand Fox woods in Connecticut. In 2010 
 the band received its highest honor. Recycled Percussion sealed a deal wit
 h the MGM Grand in Las Vegas to have their own show nightly at the famed c
 asino. This has made Recycled Percussion the only true band with their own
  show on the Las Vegas strip nightly.\n\nRecycled Percussion has now creat
 ed the most interactive show in Las Vegas. When audience members attend a 
 Recycled Percussion show they are given a drumstick and a unique instrumen
 t on the way in. The audience members use this throughout the show to play
  along with the band. This concept has received high acclaim from producer
 s and media throughout Las Vegas. The new show in Las Vegas is the most in
 tense show that Recycled Percussion has ever created and they continue to 
 push the envelope of creativity that they have become so famous for.\n\nSt
