    Faro Shuffle

    A perfect faro is very hard to get down to a science, but learning how to do a partial Faro should be some what easy to learn and take you maybe a few weeks of practice. There are a bunch of tricks out there that use the partial faro.

    TA Order

    It shouldn't really effect much unless you spend all day watching a DVD.

    andthensome double lifts

    Most of dan and dave's stuff isn't really for lay people to see. it's more for the kids who want to learn the next flashy stuff. Most pro's I know use really simply DL's. Daryl does the Jennings Snap DL. Whit Hayden does the push off. I think a few also use a solid DL or the strike. I don't...

    Hard time for working magicians...

    That's a pretty laughable statement. Move to Las Vegas. I'd say that moving to Las Vegas is only for people who have big gigs and it would be REALLY hard for a person without a rep to get a job in Vegas due to it being THE LAND OF MAGICIANS. The magic Castle is fine and dandy if you want it. I...

    True Astonishments 9 DVD Set by Paul Harris

    The Astonishment Project sells refills of Twilight Angels. I think for like 5 bucks or so. I was kind of disappointed the set only came with two. I also need to get a blue deck for SOS. When I first practiced Big Tiny I screwed it up and now the deck is pretty much toast unless I want to use...

    Controversies in Magic

    Most people generally don't have their act together till their late 20's to early 30's. This has been proven over the years by many things. In your teens, you are young and don't have many bills to pay and you might work as the manager at a fast food place. Once you get older, you start realize...

    TA Order

    It seems some people who ordered from other sources ended up getting messed up discs or something. I ordered from Hocus Pocus and my TA set is pretty much in really good condition.

    Controversies in Magic

    I never understood why some call it VooDoo card. You're not going any Voodoo to the card. The card gets magically warped by you pushing it out the other end.

    Hard time for working magicians...

    130 bucks an hour is pretty reasonable for most private gigs. The top guys who have more of a client base and also do Corporate shows tend to charge around 500-800 bucks an hour. Now that may seem like a lot to you, but when you think about it. Most high end companies CAN and WILL afford that...

    Hard time for working magicians...

    It shouldn't be too hard on most entertainers. People are more willing to spend money on something that takes their mind off all the troubles that have been going on in the economy.

    Controversies in Magic

    Magic should not be a puzzle. If you set it up as a puzzle or challenge you will just be setting yourself up for failure. It will end up being less entertaining and people will no longer enjoy seeing your perform. Seriously, it's our jobs to amaze and create wonder in people. You can't do that...

    Masked Magician is Back!

    Yeah the guy is pretty much banned from the majority of magic circles. I mean he doesn't really hurt anybody else besides himself. But it's still funny to see that the guy has some form of an ego and thinks he's doing magicians a favor.

    True Astonishments 9 DVD Set by Paul Harris

    A lot of the stuff on the DVD's is pretty much within in the range of just about anybody.

    Masked Magician is Back!

    He's been revealing his own effects for years before he was The Masked Magician. I recall him saying he did as a kid and it "brought people into the magic." Which is pretty much wrong and stupid. People are not going to recommend a show to their friends after you've exposed how you do...

    Peter Popoff?

    The thing tho with placebo's is that doctors will usually give them to people who are worry warts. Somebody who thinks they have a serious illness when in fact they might just have the sniffles.

    True Astonishments 9 DVD Set by Paul Harris

    I wouldn't call it sad, It's a DVD set that magicians are going to buy, so they had to put a few effects in there that look to magicians. Everything else on the DVD set tho is pure gold. I might skip one or two things mainly due to not having the stuff required for them. Casanova Inc...

    Which magician do you love to hate?

    Penn Jillete was a close friend of Angels and he pretty much said the show sucked ass.

    Masked Magician is Back!

    I thought he was canceled because of Masters of Illusion. Kind of stupid for the network to put an exposure show on RIGHT after a Magic show.

    Torn by Daniel Garcia

    Well it's in Willaimsons Wonders (which was just reprinted and now being sold by most magic sites.) The Darwin Ortiz book I think is either Cark Shark or At The Card Table.
