Spring in Action 3 example of AOP causing problems

I am working my way through Spring in Action 3 and there is an example in there of using AOP with the around aspect.

This is the Aspect class:

package com.xetius.springIdol;

import org.aspectj.lang.ProceedingJoinPoint;

public class Audience {

public void watchPerformance(ProceedingJoinPoint joinpoint) {
    try {
        System.out.println("The audience is taking their seats.");
        System.out.println("The audience is turning off their cell phones.");   
        long start = System.currentTimeMillis();

    joinpoint.proceed();

        long end = System.currentTimeMillis();  
        System.out.println("CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP");
        System.out.println("The performance took " + (end - start) + " milliseconds.");
    } catch (Throwable e) {
        System.out.println("Boo! We want our money back!");
    }
}

and here is the spring xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xmlns:p="http://www.springframework.org/schema/p"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:util="http://www.springframework.org/schema/util"
    xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"
    xmlns:aop="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop http://www.springframework.org/schema/aop/spring-aop-3.0.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/util http://www.springframework.org/schema/util/spring-util-2.0.xsd
        http://www.springframework.org/schema/context http://www.springframework.org/schema/context/spring-context.xsd">

    <bean id="audience" class="com.xetius.springIdol.Audience" />

    <aop:config>
        <aop:aspect ref="audience">
            <aop:pointcut id="performance2" expression="execution(* com.xetius.springIdol.Performer.perform(..))"/>
            <aop:around pointcut-ref="performance2" method="watchPerformance()"/>
        </aop:aspect>
    </aop:config>
</beans>

However, when I run this I am getting the following exception thrown:

Exception in thread "main" org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'audience' defined in class path resource [springIdol.xml]: BeanPostProcessor before instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'org.springframework.aop.aspectj.AspectJPointcutAdvisor#0': Cannot create inner bean '(inner bean)' of type [org.springframework.aop.aspectj.AspectJAroundAdvice] while setting constructor argument; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name '(inner bean)': Cannot create inner bean '(inner bean)' of type [org.springframework.aop.config.MethodLocatingFactoryBean] while setting constructor argument; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name '(inner bean)': Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unable to locate method [watchPerformance()] on bean [audience]

I believe the pertinent line is:

nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unable to locate method [watchPerformance()] on bean [audience]
        at org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.createBean(AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.java:452)

I am trying to do this using Springs implementation of AOP, but I believe I have to include part of AspectJ to do this.

If I remove the parameter ProceedingJoinPoint joinpoint then it can locate this method. I thought that this was an implicit parameter in the method for the around aspect. Is this correct? If not, what am I doing wrong here?

I am using Maven to build this. Here is my POM:

The method name should be specified without the brackets:

method="watchPerformance"
