    Anytime Anywhere, stage performance

    Draven, thanks for sharing this. I really enjoy your character, the back drop, costume, the mood and music. These are great but I am not sure the witty jokes and one liners "fit" the character that you portray. Some of the jokes are funny because we all typically use the same ones. I guess what...

    Reflections from Last Night's Stage Show

    I think Rats Riddle and a Monkey Bar Routine are the same thing. I'll have to check it out to make sure though. I bought my Monkey Bar from a Brick and Mortar shop that went out of business for 10 bucks. It was a steal. And yes...David Ginn's You're the Star is not designed to let them choose...

    How does one make tips

    Well here are a few ideas that tend to work but I cannot guarantee you anything. 1.) Use Benji's advice on having a waiter bring money over to you as you are performing for a different table and have the waiter say, Benji...table 5 wanted you to have this...blah blah blah..." 2.) Borrow a 5 or...

    Reflections from Last Night's Stage Show

    Thanks Chris. I have a birthday party show gig that I may possibly film if the client allows me and may post portions of it. The gig is November 20th so if all goes well I may have some footage for you guys to harass me about while performing for young kids. Yes, evaluations are very important.

    Reflections from Last Night's Stage Show

    Thanks for the comments fellas. I literally just got of Skype with William Draven, booked a wedding reception and then Skyped Reality One regarding my show and a few other things. Reality One made a good point that once you have developed a character on stage you cannot shift gears very...

    Show me magic, show me again. Show him some magic.

    You have to love it when the people who you entertained last week, bring their friends back to see you and they say, "Hey...show'em that one where the Red Ball Turns into the Red Square..." Ha ha. Um...they've pretty much just blown that one. If I am not being paid and am just out at someone's...

    Reflections from Last Night's Stage Show

    Hello Everyone, Last night I opened up a stage show for the first 20 minutes. It was only my 3rd time performing up on a stage for an audience over 150. There were other performers after me (total of 5). Tom Craven who is an outstanding performer was the headliner. It was for our IBM Ring...

    What do you focus on?

    Clearly there is a distinct difference in comparison between a person who stands and tries to "fool" his / her audience and a magician who "entertains" the crowd. I'm in agreement with Butterfield that there needs to be a good mixture of both ingredients to best suit your performance. For...

    Cardistry and flourishing dvds?

    I am not going to tell you which DVD to purchase, but I will offer a bit of advice that you do not want to overwhelm yourself. If it were me I would select one and really work hard on it and put in the practice and dedicate yourself. It will pay off. It is very easy to fall into the vicious...

    IO Error?

    I had this happen to me when I tried to load on my MacBook using Firefox 3.6 . I switched to chrome on my PC and it loaded fine. Try that. Also..how big is the file?

    Is it really important?

    I believe patter is part of the entertainment. Perhaps he thought you were using words to "mislead" or distract him from what he might be trying to catch. I am not positive. Interesting.

    Crazy beautiful trick with a fire.

    I'm just going to go ahead and close this thread as it is not furthering the art of magic and causing some frustration among our members. I'm sure most of us understand why. Thanks.

    Saturday Night Contest - Halloween Edition!

    Perhaps the contestants need to be holding it themselves and have someone else take the photo or at least have a sign with the date, time and their name beside the pumpkin so we have proof. We want this to be fair fellas.
