    Mentalism/Hypnosis

    COMPLETELY agree. He actually DID fail a lot in the beginning, because he didn't know how to properly mix it. After a few years, he got it right. As for T11 and Hypnosis, he just said he would like to put something out there WITH them. I don't see a market for Hypnosis and T11. Just like I...

    Mentalism/Hypnosis

    I have a good friend who is a professional hypnotist. Been to Vegas and back and has done some stuff over at the Castle too. He actually mixes mentalism with Hypnosis and well, it is paying his bills. :) Again, I think it is all in how you present yourself. He actually wants to put something...

    The Harbor Change by Michael Hankins

    Tip: Right after the change, let the spectator pick up the card off of the deck themselves. Then, you have a free pocket for something else...just sayin' :) Mike

    Card trick you would do for a magician...?

    I like to bust out a one way force deck and make it seem like I am some super master pass-terbator...they never think im using a one way force deck, well until I show them...lol

    The Tarbell Course in Magic

    I got em too...lost my first set in Iraq. Bought em again just to keep and pop open every now and then. FYI, most of Lance Burton's show comes right out of Tarbell :) Mike

    Vegas Shops?

    Denny & Lee's Magic Studio off of Dean Martin Dr will be your best bet. I haven't been to that shop since 2006, so I dunno what they carry, but it is a great shop none-the-less. Also, check out Boomers off the strip. It is not a magic shop, but there you will meet some of the top names in...

    The Harbor Change by Michael Hankins

    Anything is impractical if you use it impractically. :) This is not for everyone. But for those who see the many appilcations for it, you will not be disappointed. I use this 4 nights a week in my regular gig. And I find it VERY practical. But see, that is the great thing about card magic...

    What would you say in this situation?

    Because of my performance style, when asked that question, I usually respond: "Well, last time I did THAT, I got 20." Then I pause for a second and say, "No sir, not 20 dollars, 20 years!" That usually gets a pretty good laugh and im not usually asked that again. lol

    I have a friend and student who lives there...his name is Denver. He is into magic. Other than that, just my old roomate who spent time in the Marines with me. I was DJing at a place called RAWBar and performing magic at a place called Firehouse.

    How do you get disappointed with the method?

    Have fun in the military! 4 years in the Marines here...got out in 2006. Was in Iraq and yea I was in combat. Got recalled in 2008 but didn't deploy due to prior injury from Iraq... You will have PLENTY of time to perform and learn magic. I had a lot of my crap over in Iraq with me. :) Mike

    How do you get disappointed with the method?

    So why is this? Simple answer...the NEW generation of magicians grew up on sites like PenguinMagic and Ellusionist. Sites like Penguin don't really promote hard work and dedication to becoming a skilled magician. They had/have instant gratification downloads. Even Ellusionist has changed quite...

    Getting started in restaurant/walk around magic.

    Please do!!!! I don't use that idea anymore... It is best to make good with the wait staff that evening. They can help introduce you. Or if it is a VERY busy night, chances are that people will be waiting at the door to be called upon to sit. This is a perfect place to just create entertainment...
