    Black Art

    It's good but I saw better at the 2001 Blackpool gala. Isn't that the Omar Pasha performance that was on the Worlds Greatest Magic series?

    Nail Clippers by Dan and Dave?

    In reply to the thread title, the "khlip" isn't by Dan and Dave. It's just a fancy, geeky gadget for people that can afford those sort of things.

    Transpo With a Smile

    I like it. A comment on youtube is that a simple double lift would give the same result, I think using that move makes it more convincing.

    Can I make a color change its own trick????

    You'll never know if you never try. If you get good reactions then keep doing it, if it gets bad reactions keep working on it.

    Four hours of torture

    People are trying to sell them for $80-100 each already. I don't know if they know this but blue artifice are exactly the same for $6....

    People are addicted to cards now?

    I've been doing magic since I was 13 (I'm 24 now) but had a break from it and when I got back in to it a couple years ago I did get sucked in to buying lots of the new cards just because they were selling out quite fast. Cards started to build up and I wondered what the hell I was going to do...

    People are addicted to cards now?

    I noticed people have been buying lots of cards because...well, because that's what people do these days? But I've never seen sites be offline for hours before.

    People are addicted to cards now?

    leeasher.com crashed at the jerrys launch a couple weeks ago. E has been down for hours because of the red artifice launch. DnD will probably be the same story for the release of V6. What is going on? Has card "collecting" become that popular?

    Magic in London

    Davenports, International Magic, Magic Circle and Covent Garden are what come to mind. All in central London.

    What got you started in magic?

    A friend showed me the french drop when I was in school. That was my spark.

    Jack of all trades, or a master of one?

    Some live magic for ya

    No problem with the quality. The magic seemed solid but I switched off after crazy mans handcuffs because I found you two very immature.

    Small little video I made on my MacBook

    Aha I'm not some evil keyboard warrior! I give credit where credit is due, I just like to be completely honest even if it hurts peoples feelings. When people post things on here to be subjected to our views we owe it to them to give our honest opinions. Sugar coating it won't make them...

    How Do You Feel About This Kind of Performance?

    Thousands of closeup magicians work events every single day (in the UK), there aren't many theatre's that have classic stage acts on even once a year and even less that make a profit. I haven't seen this kind of magic on tv since Worlds Greatest Magic was airing yet I'm seeing Blaine, Dynamo...

    How Do You Feel About This Kind of Performance?

    I was saying that people lose interest in this kind of magic after a short time, not magic in general. People will happily sit through an hour and a half show by Derren Brown, Paul Daniels etc...because they engage the audience and it suits modern society more. I think that in this day and age...

    Why did they become big/famous

    You clearly didn't read my post properly. Background is nothing. Dynamo is from a poor background, Alan Sugar, Richard Branson....none of them had a lot growing up. Blaine also performed for years before getting his first tv show, he obviously met or approached the right people at the right time.

    Dynamo twists iPhone

    Because he's left with a big piece of plastic in his hand and needs to ditch it :p I would walk away too.

    Why did they become big/famous

    You're getting too caught up in the literal meaning of luck. I get on a train to London for whatever reason. There is a problem with the train and it is taken out of service. The replacement train already has people on it from another journey. I randomly sit next to a high flying investor that...

    How Do You Feel About This Kind of Performance?

    Outdated magic. True classical magic but outdated. I enjoy it but the general public can't relate and rarely appreciate it these days. The control he has when producing multiple coloured cards is insane, I really loved that part. People these days get bored of that after 60 seconds though.
