Thank you Josh. You are one of the most insightful, respectable members we have. Hope to see you around still. Don't feel bad for stepping away at all. I had to do this myself to handle some family issues and once all was well, I was welcomed back with open arms.

Last night my wife and I were able to take in Criss Angel's RAW show in Akron, OH. I splurged for the $80 a piece tickets which were about 15 rows back from center stage. Anything in front of that was double the cost and I didn't think it would matter that much (which it didn't). Not much to...

Whichever you decide...do not fall into the trap of overwhelming yourself. This happens way too often and then nothing gets worked on or learned to a sufficient level of expertise. Too many books or trying to learn too many card tricks at once can be frustrating. Your initial excitement say to...

Look up this little killer effect called Free Will. Reality One mentioned it in another post. I've been using it for strolling and close up for over 8 years now. http://www.penguinmagic.com/p/4207 For the price and proper presentation it kills.

I think the more important question to ask is why? Are you collecting? Are you performing with this deck? What design and color do you like? Is cost a factor? Without any of that information it is quite difficult to steer you one way or another.

I've been performing for children for the past 18 years. What I have found is that even the various age ranges can determine which props/effects I take to the gig for my show. If I have a young group between the ages of 5-8 I will take very visual magic. Think: dove pans, appearing/disappearing...

In addition to all of the other methods/materials mentioned. I have also you this product as well. Use it lightly and you'll be happy with the outcome. https://www.amazon.com/Performix-11209-Multi-Purpose-Coating-Aerosol/dp/B000LNN11G

HOLY MOLY...you sure did buddy. Nice selections. I hope you enjoy them.

I think sometimes it boils down to "how" you are performing the magic. There will always be hecklers and skeptics, but for the most part I take an attitude of not trying to fool you per say, but allow you to experience something really neat or different. They are coming along for the ride and...

Hey Guys, This is the case I use for all of my non-strolling gigs. Yes it is pricey but you cannot beat the set up. Its phenomenal. I also added the well shell and use it every time. http://flipdisc.com/UltGigCase/ultimate_gig_case.htm

I just wanted to take a moment and say thank you to JB and Theory11 for making one of my 4th grade students very happy today. I can't go into details as it is a very sad scenario, but this boy in my classroom and his mother came to my last stage show about two weeks ago. He loves magic and they...

YES...how could I forget instant reset effects. This probably one of the most important aspects. Durrrrrrr Rick. Thanks for mentioning that.

Hi, I don't claim to be an expert by any means; however I have been doing this for the past 18 years semi professionally and can offer what has worked for me. Strolling magic or table hopping should be broken up into sets of effects. There should be a fast opener that grabs their attention...

Hi Bobby, Welcome to Theory11. Don't be afraid to pick our brains here as there are a plethora of magicians here who are highly skilled and bring a lot to the table. Jump right into the discussions, look around the Marketplace, view some of the media videos and enjoy your stay. --Rick

Those of us who have performed countless shows have messed up and will continue to mess up here and there in our performances. Sometimes its our fault and sometimes accidents just happen. Ha! We've all been there and it is embarrassing and humbling to say the least. Hopefully you learn from...

I know how Hippity Hop Rabbits works and have always loved watching good magicians perform it. I am changing up some of my kids material I am wondering what is one of the best versions and quality products made for this effect. Can anyone help or advise me as to which model they prefer and why?
