My apologies Cig. Your are correct in that I had assumed you had an original deck, but were just unsure. My guess is that on the packing slip, the date would have been between Oct. 31-Nov. 10, however I do not work in the shipping department, just as a mod on the boards. You would have received...

Big careful when you saying you are putting in something a bit "different' and make sure it flows well with your other effects. I can honestly say I regret doing a similar thing for a stage show. I decided I wanted something a little more serious and it did not fit my other routines or character...

I was just going to suggest Adobe Illustrator as well but I'm venturing to guess the cost and time commitment is not something you want to jump into.

You are exactly right. I had a blast at this gig. It was so much fun to see the enjoyment I was bringing to these people tonight.

Hey guys, Just got back from a company Christmas party gig. It was for 75 people and about 25 of them were kids between the ages of 4-16. It was from 5:30-7:00 pm and then the big jolly guy was supposed to show up at 7:15. The location was in the basement of a Elk's Lodge. I...

Reality One's strategy / idea is good. Many of us fall victim to the hype of products and make an impulsive purchase. He shared this with me awhile back and it definitely saves some money in your wallet. I would say half of the times I wanted something, a few months later, after I had...

Lloyd I sent you a PM as well as I am just beginning to go through your notes and effects.

Nice....great examples Craig. I was not there when Mac asked my friend for his watch but he (my friend) said that Mac whispered it to him right up on stage while doing another effect and acting completely normal. A lot of performers will whisper cues to the spectators up on stage to get them...

Did you look at your packing slip to check the date? Did you get an email confirming that you were one of the ones who had received a deck that was not like the ones getting released on the 11th due to the issue that had occurred? Without knowing any of those I am not sure anyone can be of much...

Awesome stories....both of you. Congrats and the effect does look incredibly visual and impossible. Well done Jamie!

Looks super visual! Thanks for sharing. I'm not so sure you could do it live with someone right in front of you though.

Thanks Craig. I remember reading that Harry Blackstone used to do the exact same thing. I think it was in Hiding the Elephant if my memory serves me correctly.

When table hopping I ONLY perform 1 card effect and I NEVER open with it. You need effects that are simple to follow, no reset at all, and effects that have multiple parts that you could end on should the waiter arrive holding the plates of food...otherwise your climax could be ruined by any...

Believe it or not Mac King blatantly asked for my friends watch up on stage while standing right next to him. My friend handed it to him while his hands were behind his back and the audience didn't even see it. 20 minutes later Mac reveals it as if he stole it. Performers will do all kinds of...

I would say very few of my effects require me to misdirect the spectators attention while I do anything dirty. Most of my effects are done right in front of them and I normally like to try and end clean.

I'll post it as an ebay item for you on Friday, but I'm going to have to check at my local post office how much shipping is going to be to get the cards to you first tomorrow. If it is some insane amount I'm not sure you will even want them. I'll get back to you.

Keep in mind that 9 times out of 10 that I have seen David and Kevin perform this (including the time my wife was on stage with Kevin)...they use the microphone stand and it needs to be there for a reason. I won't go into exposure but you need to have the right amount of lighting as well or it...

I know we had some people contact me and ask if Ed would do another interview section on Restaurant work. I'll have to see what his schedule is like. I know December is slammed for most performers. Maybe in January or Feb.

Visual, my thoughts exactly, however that is not why he was banned. I would never BAN someone for disagreeing with me. He had numerous other threads and / or posts that were purposefully causing arguments for his own enjoyment. He was constantly popping into good threads and just stirring the...

Nope...I just Banned Him. All is well again in Theory11 land.
