    Calluses?

    Seems like you need to be more careful when working on that farm... Maybe thicker better gloves? Then you just need to get used to it. I used to have what i thought was a callus but thankfully it went away. I know how annoying it can be.

    Another Mentalism Post

    Didn't read the whole thing as TeeDee, but must say I agree. You can't do both in the same act if you routine correctly.

    Performing for terrorists and hooligans...

    Me and a buddy of mine have talked about something like with before without the chance of a shootout. He said when you have a lot of hecklers around just do self working tricks. They can't say you flashed or they saw or know the move because there was no move. But as for the performing for...

    Twister - False Flourish

    It just seems to flow so well. Nothing too flashy, i would say its a little long for a performance of magic of my style, but well done overall. I don't do stars...

    Coins Across

    I forgot completely what it's called, but i found it in sankey's revolutionary coin magic dvd. His Mr. Clean coins across seems nice and I must admit totally fooled me from the first viewing. I guess you could call it a point production, only the dirty work is down before anyone thinks it's...

    Groove Electric Switch By Doc Docherty

    This is such a great, great sleight. Well done to Doc on that one. I came up with a version a long time ago. And trust me that is no brag, it was pretty nasty looking using only half the deck.. couldn't get the cards in the right position. I must admit it will take some time getting this...

    STS Gimmick

    STS came with a gimmick? I always just thought Noblezada and the penguin crew just kinda said make your own... I have been making to my own for a while now, get some performances in.

    Card Control: Pressure

    Your version of the control (no offense) is not as good as Jerry's. I suggest you bring the two halves together more. I have tried this in a few performances and have had not the best of luck with it.

    Performing with fancy moves...

    I am glad you brought this up about disarming the spectator, totally forgot about why the "show within a show" idea is really effective for me when i perform which I must admit isn't much lately. But with flourishy presentation it shows it's not all about the method it's about the attempt of...

    Performing with fancy moves...

    To me, I like the "show within a show" aspect of it. I have not heard any other magician use this term so let me explain. You have your spectator pick a card and return it to the deck. Then you make it a simple transpo effect. It's cool and everything but is it really what you wanted to do...

    How Advanced are You?

    To me if you think a book is or will be good, go ahead and pick it up as long as the reviews agree with you. Magic is a lifelong goal to create the ultimate flow of motion from phase to phase/ then from trick to trick. I don't own forces unseen but you hear about how advanced it is all the...

    Waiver of Liability?!

    I just searched video waiver on google, and things came up. I found one that is used by a college for a commercial they were doing. And modified the existing waiver for the company name. If you need my version as a "rough draft" let me know, I would be happy to send it your way. There is...

    Theory11, Ellusionist or Penguin magic?

    It really depends on what you want... If it's variety I'd suggest penguin, but do your research on the trick you might be purchasing because it may be cheap, but cheap for a reason. Some stuff on there is not for all magicians. They seem to use a lot of gimmicks. You could check out...

    Woah! How Is This Done?

    It's called a shuffling demo... or something like that. I think this version is done by Ammar.

    Practicing Habits.

    This is a good question that I am sure has been asked before but I won't knock you for that because I haven't answered it yet. First off go for a walk with a deck kinda trying to get myself psyched up and in the right mood to get ready to sit for a while. Then I have been known to hang out...

    Leviticus (My Created Card Trick)

    I thought the idea was pretty clever. I recommend that you control the card a different way, there is a very easy way to do that even if you have you heart set on a fan. Other than that I think it's just allowing yourself to let it evolve into whatever the spectators like to see. Or you could...

    Dan Sperry - Fraud? (I Think)

    i totally agree with cm### I cant see Sperry doing this on purpose. I used to talk to him on a semi regular basis over the internet. All I can say is try to contact his customer support, keep or find proof of purchase, so when they do get around to returning your emails you are ready to get...
