Or you could simply not be a dork and just give her the ring like a normal person. You don't need to put "Magic" into everything you do.

From what I have read about Mash Pack is that it is essentially an entire gimmick deck, and you have to be pretty careful when handling it otherwise you'll give away the method. He does teach a few effects that allow you to end with a normal deck and cards.

Here's a question. At what speed are you usually practicing the sleight? If you are trying to practice it at actual performing speed, then you're doing it wrong. Here's something to try, open up the book or DVD you have on the sleight, then practice it in SUPER SLOW MOTION while watching TV...

As for the windows thing, you are just going to have to force your hands to constantly close them. The more you do it, the more your hands will get used to it, and it will end up being an automatic natural thing. The other thing is misdirection and the fact that when you palm a card you aren't...

Depending on the person who's effect you performed, if you go on TV and say you created it. You can most likely get sued, because they own the TV rights to it. As for Criss Angels thing, yeah he slapped his name on everything, but He couldn't be arsed enough to endorse the stuff by actually...

These are going on my list for the near future. I probably couldn't do some of the stuff with the Iphone magic because I don't have one at the moment. But I've heard a lot of good things about this stuff.

Whats wrong with that? Pretty much every mentalist on the planet says they've done something and then later in the show prove it. If this wasn't such a big deal, then guys like Max Maven or any other top Mentalist wouldn't be getting the top paid gigs out there. Sometimes magic doesn't need the...

Rev pretty much nailed it. It's understandable that you want to perform for people on the street and show off your new magic tricks. But the problem is that it's just plain rude to go up to people bother them with it, If somebody was to come up to me and say that, I'd probably also tell them no...

You're not going to get anything out of seeing the people on this forums acts, and even when the people here DO actually film stuff. It's not a set/act. It's usually like one or two things they did for friends.

He's nothing like Dan and Dave.. Most of what David Williamson does is usually visual, but doesn't really on overly complicated sleight of hand.

Tearing somebody down on the internet doesn't help anybody. Specially when the thing that is being taken apart is a edited video, and when that person will most likely never see or read any of the angry posts aimed toward it. It's like yelling at a brick wall. You're not doing anything besides...

Eh, this gimmick was OK at first. Now it's just getting annoying and redundant. If you really want people to check out your blog, just put in your signature and stop posting random "rant" topics.

Neither do magic DVD's. Magicians in general are a very small market and most guys who put out products, tend to not make very much money from their books or DVD's. Which is why a lot of the guys putting out DVD's or books, tend to have side jobs or make the majority of their money actually...

Essentially it's a poor version of Justin Millers version and Charlie Justices version as well. Like they mentioned on the Wizard Product review, you can essentially tell from the reactions that the people watching it, figured it out instantly.. If you want a good Cap in Bottle effect, that can...

You know, I've always wondered if he actually DOES get booked for any gigs at all, or if his main source of income is doing lectures/yelling at people and making poorly made DVD's. (which still isn't a lot, because the majority of magicians out there, even the great ones. Usually don't make that...

I haven't really checked anything out from E or Theory in ages. Not much that as come out as really wowed me. I've got nothing against creators. Hell, I am starting to become a big David Regal fan (but then again, most of his stuff is usually extremely workable and also extremely clever.). Also...

To be more precise on what Will said, Perfect Practice makes perfect. You can practice till the cows come home, but if you are doing some improperly with poor technique. Then all that practice isn't going to fix it, it'll still look like ass.

The other thing about some magicians acting like dicks when you try to talk to them at conventions is this. Have you ever been to a convention? They are stuffy, over crowded, and most of the guys there who are trying to sell their stuff. Have been sitting there for hours on end. I'd like to see...

Eh, this is a very old cliche in entertainment. That is true and will always be true. It's always about who you know. Though, really if somebody was working part time at McDonalds, while also working on a future goal on the side. Who's to say they will always work at McDonalds..

First of all, everything you have is OK. The main problem you have is sensory overload. You are trying to do too many things and are pretty much just confusing people. I remember watching an episode of Kitchen Nightmares (The UK version, which is the REAL and better version). Gordon Ramsey was...
