I hav it and I get by just fine. Just do it. Cary your inhaler with you if need be and don't do any tricks that could trigger an attack. If You need to consult with your doctor then do so since they probably know your situation an limits better than I.

Read the artical. Serious let this just go. This guy is a drama queen. There's nothing of interest here.

It's old news. Let the man be.

Good point Toby. Maybe we could accept any video

Well to be fair I think we should make an official announcement that this thing is a go. Right now this thread serves only as a general test of interest.

Well I think that the video submitted should be filmed specifically for the contest. For the sake of time I think all submissions should be of only 1 trick or routine. If it's taken from a larger show, then edit it down to feature the one effect. I like the collection idea too. I mean...

So Toby had a brilliant idea in another thread that I thought should be entertained more. Would anyone be interested in participating in a friendly video performance challenge with each other here on the forums? Say... closeup magic for a real audience? 1 effect/routine, dealers choice? 2...

I usually take a good book or two on magic to read while in the car or plane. Either something new or something I haven't read in a while. I also bring with me 1 trick that I want to work on. Other than that, MAYBE a deck of cards and or what ever I have pre-set up in my wallet. I try to...

You've already created a thread about this a few days ago and garnered some good responses. Why didn't you just bump that thread? Instead of you know.... creating this new one? I understand you really want help very very badly about this project that you care about but creating lots of...

No not really. I don't fan boy, and I really kind of frown upon the idea of doing so. I wouldn't treat anyone at work special when I talk to them and I really don't view anyone in the magic field, even Copperfield or Kenner as anyone other than just another co-worker. This doesn't mean I...

Tonight was just one of those nights... The kids were hecklers, the audiences weren't into it, and even I felt like I was having an identity crisis behind the scenes. I know I'm good. I know I can hold a crowed. I know I can entertain but there are just those times where you don't feel like...

I seem to remember some chich from England area having a similar problem a week ago. Here's what you do. Gather a group of your closest friends. Minimal 3 and have a production meeting to gather their unbiased opinion on a few things. 1) Draw up a plan of what you want to do on your...

I'd describe it as your basic stock as to the minimum standards most working magicians prefer when it comes to cards. I don't think there's a way to describe it without assuming the reader has had at the very least some degree of experience handling cards before.

So a popular soap box for magicians to stand on deals with people doing un-original work or taking their bits. Why hasn't someone taken this painted it red and ran like hell with it yet?! Think about it... What if someone would adopt a weird al type character of magicians whose act is...

This isn't meant to sound mean but if they managed to get your props from you and figure out how the trick is done then it is your fault. You need to be in control. It's your show! Why would you continue performing for a hostile audience? Unless your getting paid just tell them if they can't...

Sometimes it helps to take a trick that you know how to do and completely re-write the patter for it. Giving it a new spin can uncover new methods or applicational ideas that can lead you into a new direction.

If you open them then you drastically reduce their value.

The poll selections are not supportive of my preferences. I think it is too limited in scope. I agree with others, this thread works better as a thread post and not a poll. Further this thread belongs in the general section and not the product reviews. A recommondation for thread move has...
