    [HELP] Halloween Costume!

    well.. if you wanna go corny you cant beat Appearing Cane or Coin from Ear. As for quick stuff to do walking around with gloves how an Appearing Drink routine. With that get-up it wouldn't be hard to pull off. Think David Stone. I also really Like The Ultimate Invisible Deck (shawn farquar's...

    What do you do?

    thanks for the kind words. I researched the guy, he's not an old school stereotype. He's pretty modern and hip. His act did seem to put comedy first and magic second but his act was solid although to other magicians some of his chosen effects might seem.... well like the same old same old...

    Coin Ditching

    that looked REAAAAALLLL awkward, no offense. Honestly, i think to much emphasis is put on "ditching" a coin and ending clean. If you learn to palm in a way that looks natural you can end a coin effect anytime and no one cares. People are so worried about ending clean that the sacrifice the...

    I'm having second thoughts

    Honestly, i used to buy a few decks of each kind just to have them. If thats your thing than go for it. The 125's are terrible. But these days id rather just buy another brick of red bikes. Im all about quantity not diversity these days.

    Saturday Night Roundtable :: Calen Morelli

    Hey Calen, how challenging was it to come up with a new effect EVERY day? Did you try and switch genres everyday or just let the creative juices flow? Ever hit a dead end and if yes what did you do?

    The Tornado Cut

    im gonna agree with JDEN, it took me almost a month and a half to get pretty good at it. Best advice is to play around with Pressure from both sides and positions on your finger and thumb base.

    Using Spy Devices in Magic

    speaking of spy devices though. Awhile back i was picking up my new Lock pick set and i saw an advertisement for something called a Covert Coin. Its essentially a coin with a compartment inside. I thought it looked awesome. Imagine the possibilities. I think i will probably end up picking...

    t11 and dananddave

    you guys are kinda proving my point. different styles, different approaches and most importantly DIFFERENT FOLLOWERS and forum members. Really no need to argue. Just disagree and leave it at that.

    t11 and dananddave

    what do you mean mix? i like that they are unique and two separate entities. I think they have different goals and different styles and personally would not like to see any sort of merger.

    Would you choose Jason England to be your card teacher?

    in all honesty.... probably not. I have amazing respect for Jason and his work. he truly is one of the best at what he does. That said, he does seem rather focused and dedicated to his table work and gambling sleights and with who i am as a performer i dont know how much i would benefit from...
