    Help Please!

    Hrm. What have you read recently? Maybe something you've bought? Look through all your products that you own, all of your books, and so forth. List your favourite magicians, and stuff like that. On that note, invest in a notepad! Not only do I have a magic notepad, but I have updated lists on my...

    Magic in Atlanta

    Good morning folks (it's 2:51 AM down here in Sydney), I'd like to find out about magic in general in Atlanta, GA - I would be grateful to hear from anyone in this area, or about this area, including magicians, magic shops, clubs, and so forth. Please PM me or reply here. Thanks, ~P.

    Help Please!

    That's because you don't practice enough and try to learn too much without practicing the old. Then what do you want us to do? Help you remember? As I mentioned, the reason you forget tricks is because you stop practicing them and stop performing them. If you performed a trick everyday and...

    Variation of Static

    LOL. Sorry, I don't have it, but I just found that funny :P

    Emancipate

    Sure, that's fair enough. I apologise for the criticism - the video quality itself was better than the amount of criticism suggested. If you do decide to put it out (I can understand putting it out in that context, especially being somewhat of a "concept DVD" so to speak), then best of luck with...

    Do you click/snap your fingers?

    Although I don't really perform Card Magic these days, I didn't do that sort of motion, unless it was with the express purpose of making fun of the move (In the Greg Wilson vein of "Watch, as I snap my fingers - and nothing happens. Not a thing. But it looks good, doesn't it?").

    Help Please!

    I second Christopher T. It just doesn't sound like you're ready. First, I'd like to ask perhaps the most important question: how much time do you have??? From the sound of it, you don't have much, and the following post goes on that assumption. I apologise if it's incorrect, and will change...

    Performing after 3 months and guess what...

    Hahahaha. Well, firstly, see if you can get to know people without using magic. Bob Cassidy once wrote (paraphrased) that anyone who could stand on a box on a street corner, simply speak off the cuff, and gather a crowd, was destined for a future in magic/mentalism. Whilst I'm not suggesting...

    "Can you show me a trick?"

    No worries, glad you found it helpful. I had the same problem as you, as I said... Just needed to be more familiar with my material.

    Need a GOOD Exile Review

    Or give it to me. I'll buy my girlfriend a dozen roses, and use the rest to buy some books and a nice coat. :D

    How underground is magic?

    In TheatreHead's defense, I don't think he's being negative at all, I didn't get that vibe, although I understand the comment. I think what he says is true. I think we are deluding ourselves if we think that magic is underground. I know a lot more people than I expected do magic. I have a group...

    Emancipate

    UM93, thanks for posting the video. I have to warn you first that some of the comments are going to be a little critical, but I'll explain below. I'll be completely honest, I don't think it's worth putting on a DVD. Main reason being, I don't see why. It's a vaguely interesting combination of...

    Help with my theory11 cart!

    ... Buy a book. I guarantee it will last longer than all of those tricks combined, if it's a good one. That's a half serious comment. The more serious comment I have is this. If you're not sure what you should be buying, you probably shouldn't be buying at all. Oh, and don't forget, you'll get...

    How underground is magic?

    Don't name your tricks is an easy one. It's also an incentive to do research. Diversify what you perform.

    Hi slicke, It sounds like youre having a number of problems, so ill try to go through all of them. First, It sounds like youre trying to perform too much. Why are you performing everyday? no wonder you needed a hbeak! Doing so devaoles your magic. It also mrans that you will be known as the...

    "Can you show me a trick?"

    Hi cushing0, I'm afraid you're asking the wrong question! The question is not what we perform, but rather what you would perform! What I would do is not what you would do If only for the simple fact that I am not you. The real question Is what do you do. I had this problem about a...

    Yeah, definitely, that's great! Ungh, I've had a bad leadup to the convention. I thought I couldn't attend because I'm doing a show that week, but it turns out the director got it wrong, and the show doesn't start till the week after the convention. So I didn't plan to go, and blah. Not sure...

    I want

    I reveal a middle letter and then the last letter. You have to understand the Banachek ploy to understand why. Generally, unless you have a specific reason to go for a specific letter, I really don't think it matters. I would just think clearly about it. If there was, say, a Q in the word, I'd...
