Wow...that is unreal. Sounds like the creative strategies that the two of them came up with is well worth it. Congrats and have a blast.

Cypher is exactly correct. When the people are done eating....it is time to turn the table and get them out the door. Not entertain them for the next 15 minutes while people are waiting out at the front. Your opportunity to perform is right after the drinks have been taken before the main dish...

I'll give you some advice...even if you do have the money, you'll buy everything...some of it will just sit and then you will regret buying it down the road because you'll always want more. Its contagious and a vicious cycle. How do I know? Because I used to be the same way. I wanted EVERYTHING...

Thanks Kevin...someone else told me that tonight at our club meeting. I'll have to check it out.

I'm glad you brought this up because I am heading out there this summer and was wondering the same thing. Can I purchase casino cards that are NOT clipped or marked? Like brand new in boxes?

Valid points Keo. By BS I didn't mean something so far fetched that the audience wouldn't believe it. I hope I didn't imply that. Nice quote by the way! Love it.

I agree that there should be some form of logic or the spectator will not understand what happened or why it happened. What caused "this" to happen? I'm not saying that the magician has to walk and talk the spectator through the effect because that is boring as well. Even if the logic is BS...

Draven....I didn't even say anything to you recently because I figured you were already a subscriber and knew. Silly me. For those of you who don't subscribe to MAGIC magazine it is well worth it and not that expensive really. I think when you buy the full year it comes to 5 bucks an issue...

Ring Thing- Garrett Thomas Banded -Garrett Thomas Ring Leader - Gregory Wilson All are fantastic. Banded will take a lot of practice. I'm still trying to make it look smooth.

He may have a tour schedule on his website. You may want to check it. The show is very limited seating and sells out quickly because it is actually a close up style show for about 40-50 people max. Go early and stand in line if you want front row....you won't want to miss this. There is a good...

There are many trick decks on the market, just not a lot sold here. As you get older and more "seasoned" I think many of us shy away from the trick decks and do everything with a straight deck and at times "ring" in the trick deck after a few effects with the normal deck.

So will you be serving food and doing magic all in the same work session or magic on some nights and serving on others? That could get kind of hectic. I know some guys have the little table tent advertising cards on the tables. Others just approach the table with a great opener and jump right...

Hey fellas, I just returned from a small private showing of Joshua Jay's UNREAL show which is about to tour the U.S. It was here in my hometown of Canton, Ohio where Josh is originally from. I sat front row with my wife and enjoyed the one hour production. I must say Josh put in countless...

Your DL is WAAAAYYYYY too "forceful" Ha ha. There is not need to slam it down like that. When you turn the card to the 90 degree mark, the two cards should actually fall on top of the deck as one in a smooth carefree manner. This is what many of the other guys are saying as well. You need to...

Welcome FPS. Don't be afraid to ask questions and share some of your own advice and experiences. There are a lot of knowledgeable magicians here.

Yeah...I only have a small sony handy cam. No Microphone and just the small light that comes built into the cam. My wife bought me the cam for X-mas. If I had my choice I would bought I nicer one but oh well. I didn't realize how much sound...wind...cars...etc. are picked up outside. Live and...

Yen...I am not a coin guy but that was probably the best thing I have seen today as far as magic. Loved it man. Lots of work is paying 0ff for you. Thanks for posting that.

I am just being honest but I found it very difficult to focus when "magic" was supposed to be happening. It should happen right in front of the spectator without all of the fumbling around. Please....practice...be more confident and handle the cards smoothly.

From that EXACT angle it looked fairly decent. I watched it a few times. Thanks for posting.
