    History of Magic

    Ahh it's because it's only available in the US iBooks store. When I clicked to view it it told me it's not available in the UK. Thanks for posting it anyway.

    History of Magic

    I couldn't find any books by Stenmeyer on iBooks, unfortunately RealityOne. If I want them I guess I'll have to buy the actual books. That is such a moo point. No one asked about your opinion on ebooks and your post offers nothing of value to this thread. I cannot afford to have a nice big book...

    I Am An Artist

    Love it. We should get someone to do a magician version.

    History of Magic

    I'd quite like to read a few of those books but I'd prefer an ebook so I can read it on my phone. I looked on apples ibooks store but couldn't find any of them. Amazon doesn't have any of them in pdf format either. Anyone aware of a place that sells them as ebooks?

    Would You?

    Bit vague but I would give up my current life if a dream was offered to me, even if that meant my life would be turned upside down. I would sacrifice everything to live my dream.

    Precursor :: Patrick Kun + Zach Mueller

    You two are sickos. I watched the video when it was uploaded and instantly sent a text to a friend saying that he needs to watch it.

    theory11's Super Fast Shipping?

    Bare in mind that sometimes post is held at customs for a while. It may be held because it's suspicious or just randomly picked. I still haven't received a package from E that was sent back in November. A replacement was sent and that hasn't arrived either. The British post (Royal Mail) isn't...

    Solo needs more teasers

    I haven't really seen the flourishes on the dvd yet but that section alone makes me want to buy it. Worrying and arousing.

    Solo needs more teasers

    What do we have to do to get a teaser around here? Of course, this is just sarcasm because there are 2 or 3 videos online now but multiple teasers annoy me so this topic doesn't really have any value for discussion. What I will say though, is, get a look at MJ (that's what the pro's are...

    Stage Tricks

    Usually I would agree with you but he's not asking for anyone to tell him what to perform and he's not asked for any secrets to be revealed. All he asked is if anyone can suggest tricks that are suitable for a stage act. Given that you know nothing about his knowledge, skill level or speed at...

    Arrogance

    ar·ro·gant/ˈarəgənt/ Adjective: Having or revealing an exaggerated sense of one's own importance or abilities. I believe that answers your question.

    Stage Tricks

    It's not a terrible thing. It's the right thing to do, but not in this situation. This guy is a close up magician that would like to win $100 at his school talent show, he doesn't want to be the next McBride. I think the most appropriate quote for this is, "if you don't have anything nice to say...

    Stage Tricks

    No. That wouldn't help him. Should you have any common sense, you would do what I did. I agree with you that a trick is only as good as the performer but give him a break, he asked for a bit of advice on some good stage stuff. It doesn't take a solid foundation in stage theatre to pull an...

    Chris Kenner Collection?

    Not to mention the time he spent tied up in my closet.

    Improv. (Different subject)

    Change "wrong" to "bad", because whether it is wrong is subjective to our opinion. Is it bad to perform without any structure? Yes. You confuse "reinventing" yourself with being random. People who rehearse and have a lot of structure (in any profession) aren't known by the mainstream, because...

    Stage Tricks

    Take a second to listen to what he's asking. You don't speak for more than yourself so "we" is not a commitment you can make. More to the point, he isn't saying that he wants to do the best stage magic act in his country. It's a school talent show for gods sake, tell him some good tricks and let...

    Looks cool. You have some good ideas but guys that wear make up make me feel really uncomfortable.

    Stage Tricks

    Who are you to say what this guy (or girl) needs? I didn't read past that sentence because it's all moo. You have absolutely no idea what kind of level this person is at but regardless, all he is asking for is for people to recommend some stage material. He is not asking for a lecture about what...

    Stage Tricks

    Can people not just answer questions anymore? He is asking if anyone can sell him good stage material, so why are you lot giving advice on what he should do rather than what he is doing. The only thing close to relevant is from Jewish_Illusion, who suggested searching the forum first. Good...

    Improvising

    I agree with you, but there is a time and a place to preach your teachings. Jevonsp asked a simple question about our experiences with improvisation. He wasn't asking for your advice on how he shouldn't improvise. It's a hard thing to judge over the internet when we have little or no idea of...
