I get nerves before I get up, but once I'm on, I'm good. It helps me to breathe deeply before I go on, then start with something that I am extremely comfortable with. For close up, I do one of the same few effects that I know best. For stage I start with a quick bit that get's a laugh and I...

volume 2 of what?

I have found the ideal length of time to aim for is 5-7 minutes at a table. When I am asked for pricing for a walk around gig, I base my time on 7 minutes per table (which includes transition time). I found this ideal at the restaurant too.

I would recommend On the Spot by Gregory Wilson. Strong working material using a variety of things. So great.

Here is a nice thread to consider as well. http://forums.theory11.com/showthread.php?29190-How-many-tricks-should-you-learn&highlight=tricks Too bad the Penguin Forums are gone. So much wisdom on this topic was lost.

Can you expand a bit on what this is and why it is 'extended'? Is it a magic book with various contributors? What is the effect? More info would be helpful. The reviews are not really helpful in explaining what I get, and I'm past the stage of buying the latest effect. If I'm going to spend...

Looks pretty neat. I'm not a levitation expert, but there is a wealth of knowledge with he T11 team. I agree. Submit it and see what they think.

Heh. That was a great show.

Hey a.Luu, First thing, you have a wealth of knowledge with the Calgary group of magicians. Brent at the Vanishing Rabbit will have lots to share on this topic. Are you connected there? Second, the thing with the successful is that they associate with like kind. You must decide where the money...

Heh, that's funny to see this. I just started this book. I've heard so many parts of it, but never read it myself until now. Fantastic material.

Can you talk about the connection/difference between magic and a display of sleight of hand. Is it a good idea to mix those, does one taint the other? For example, does showing your skill with cards diminish the magical effect of a triumph routine, making it skill rather than magical? Or vice...

I look forward to it. I'm sure there are a few routines based on this idea, but I like it.

It started off really well. Some nice moves in there. I enjoyed everything up to the pocket reveal. After that it just got confusing. Your patter needs to lead me through each step and involve me. Make me interested in each step (- why would someone care about watching this again and again?)...

I only have the tarantula, and I am not a fan. I would prefer to be hands free (even though it is reasonable). I don't do a lot with reels in general, but I would pass on the tarantula imo.

No. That is only a mystery for those who order but did not follow the original promotion. This is different.

I believe this is the guy - not sure if it's the video though. But should help you track down the video you want. http://www.rightthisminute.com/video/amazing-magician-no-hands

Has anyone deciphered it yet? I have only heard three references to the code.

Hmm. I see you've created a new account to ask the question, which would lend to the idea that you realize you are going to get hammered for asking a vague question like this with such a deadline. I will let others chime in to help you with knowing when and how to book events. However, if you...

Hopefully you are doing my version of dresscode.
