I was just talking to one of my girl friends and she went to see Lance Burton's show and she said: "he was good but so so cheesy, you could just tell that he does the same things over and over in his shows so I didn't like that part of it but his tricks were great. like it just seemed routine...

This is already published, and the move is older then your parents.

Reality One, maybe you can check this one also, I completely forgot about this DVD. It actually has couple of routines from "Beyond ESP" booklet. It's called Submodalities: http://www.magicbox.uk.com/submodalities-sale-dvd.html

I've been doing cardistry for many years now, but I don't seem to progress at all, I'm at the same level I was 3-4 years ago. What would be your advice, how can I get over that plato and become better?

Thanks Craig, I'll look into it.

Haha, sounds amazing man. Props on being able to patch things up with nothing. Honestly, sometimes I think I'm carrying WAY too many stuff with me, when in reality a deck of cards, two rubber bands, 4 coins and sponge balls would be perfectly fine. Smart move on making emergency kit, I guess...

I have ESP Origins, and the deck and the cards that you get is just insane. Really really good. However I didn't like the routines in the booklet at all. Some are way to complicated for everyone to follow, someone requires half the table space just so you can do them, some are 15 minutes long...

Hey guys, I was wandering if someone can recommend a really good routine using ESP cards? I like ESPerfect, but the trick is over in 1 minute, and it doesn't really use the full potential of ESP cards. I've been using my own take on spectator matching up all the symbols with mine, but again...

Hmmm, it's almost impossible to narrow it down to just one. But let's say Twilight Angels by Paul Harris.

Not a lot of real world workers around here ;) I go through a deck of cards in a week on average. I open a new deck every week or so, because I give cards away when people sign them and I sign them, or sometimes I just give an entire deck as a souvenir to a spectator.

Aren't submissions for the wire supposed to be checked before being put up?

Yeah, that's the problem here in Serbia, is that about 80% of people have pre-paid cards, and usually no credit lol. And if you wait until the end of the trick to ask for a phone, then there is really no way back. You cannot really go "Call this number. Oh you have no credit... really? no one...

I know what you're talking about, I've been doing mentalism for a while now. One other thing that MAY present a problem is people giving their own phone number to a stranger (you), and also a pre-paid phone account. I don't know if you have those in US, but here in Serbia you buy a phone card...

Sounds pretty good. I'm interested. But one question that always bugged me with a lot of effects (including this one) is why? Why voicemail? Why not just a regular old prediction on a peace of napkin? It may sound more impressive on a voice mail, but then it also draws the suspicion of...

Does iPredict+ work in other countries, or is it only in the US?

Thanks man, I hope you enjoy it! Since you re-vamped this thread, let me give you guys an upgrade. I'm back home again for the holidays, and I'll be home for several months. Which means if you have any more questions, concerns, requests etc. please let me know and I'll see what I can do. In the...

Amazing notes. Specially note number 2. A lot of performers don't realize how important it is to let people know who you are and what can you do, and make them like you, before asking for assistance. Otherwise if you ask for assistant in your opener, you can create awkward atmosphere, and just...

I strongly disagree. I am a big fan of elegant style of handling and presenting magic (Eric Jones, Michael Vincent, Guy Holingworth, Aaron Fisher etc.) If you handle card and coins elegantly, and if you do your slights flawlessly, it should look like real magic. If it doesn't look like real...

Just go to the glass store or mirror store and ask them to cut you a piece that you want. Also, you should glue a velvet cloth (or any type of soft surface) on the back of the mirror, it will help with the trick (and the noise).

Yep, that is correct, it was the inspiration for twilight angels. I don't do the effect myself, but here is a nice video of a variation of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaXpdWUM_bY
