In the era of bad reality shows filled with half scripted drama and pointless conflict, I chose the above title to entice the readers of this thread with some possible drama. It's the latest trend of distraction techniques that seem to work very well... so I figured I would try it. Anyway, myself and Justin Miller would like to let you guys know about our DOUBLE lecture schedule for the month of Jan:

Monday January 17 – Shreveport, LA
Tuesday January 18 – open date, no lecture
Thursday January 20 – Chicago (Tinley Park I.B.M. Ring)
Friday January 21 – Chicago (Midwest Magic shop)
Friday through Monday January 21-24 – open date, no lecture
Tuesday January 25 – Houston TX
Wednesday through Friday January 26-28 – open date, no lecture
Saturday January 29 – Albuquerque, NM..

UPDATE: Indiana has possibly been added to the list of places we are stopping on our 2010 Double lecture tour, if they confirm, the date will be the 19th of jan..we will follow up on this in just a few days.

Now as you can see we have some open dates in there as well. If your club, ring, or magic shop would like to host our DOUBLE lecture then please contact robertsmith@papercranemagic.com or enduremiller@gmail.com. If however there are to many politics (voting on the dates or financial availability) we want to offer you an alternative:

We JUST CONFIRMED that cody nottingham has organized a workshop for us in Corbin,KY on Jan. 14th. If you would like to attend please contact us at the e-mails below. If you or a group of your local magicians would like to do the same, please take a look at our tour map http://bit.ly/gEbClx and contact us at enduremiller@gmail.com or robertsmith@papercranemagic.com to make arrangements for your area.

I think it's funny how no body has really posted anything on this thread yet though it has been up for 20 hours man. And I also think it is funny how you have to put the word 'controversial' in the title when there is no point.

Also did freedom pack get any better?

You should see some of the work Zach Lambert's mentor Dan Fishman showed us. Great improvements on it... I'm sure he'll show you sometime if you come down to http://www.themagicsession.com/the-lounge , makes it nicer then it already is.

Oh my god. Shut the hell up. We get it already. You guys hate Justin. Get over yourselves. Chances are you won't ever be as creative as him. He's a great magician. The man is entitled to a personal life. Who wouldn't want the chance to learn from from JM, the magician? Grow up. We don't need another JM hate thread.

I made my thoughts clear with the comments on the actual youtube video. All I can say now is, SAD.

It is sad that someone like that still has people that want to meet them. Just because they have released magic does not mean that they are worth getting to know or even talk to for that matter. Other than the word sad a couple more come to mind, bad influence. It is amazing to see the influence these two guys are leaving on the kids that want to buy their effects. At first it may seem funny listening to Justin Miller giggling like a little girl and it may be funny hearing Robert Smith gagging on his own tongue because he is to high to keep it out of his own throat, but when you really think about it, it all comes back to that one word, SAD.

Justin Miller replied to my comment on youtube by saying he and Robert Smith are going on a 5 state, 7 lecture tour but Justin stated on this thread that there have been rings that have passed on the offer of having Justin and Robert come and lecture. I wonder why they passed on these two?

You truly have to have experienced the ******* he can be to understand why we hate him. Up until a few nights on the internet, I thought he seemed like a decent guy.. Strange what personal encounters do for your opinions about people, isn't it? Here's what some people may say about JM and B.Smith:

"Genius... amazing magic.. (Standing ovation)" -Howie Schwartzman- (Denny and Lees Magic Shop)

Doesn't say **** about his personality.

Wow this whole thing is really sad. It's sad that he is a terrible influence. It's sad that he spells like a 6th grader with a cell phone. It's sad that he actually kept the video on YouTube. It's even more sad that he argues with kids on the internet about his effects. Justin has shown his true colors. He's a narcissistic, hypocritical, immature hack and I hope that no one shows up to his lectures so he can get the wake up call he deserves.
