Upon trying to make my show even better than what it is I've been picking the minds of some of the older guys in my ring. One of them gave me some great advice that I've never heard before. Thought I'd share it with some of you. He said that your show should consist of 10-12 effects and...

Wayne...check your PM's when you have time. Thanks.

Nice...Alex. Glad you could put that plug in for me....ha ha. Hope you have been working on some of those moves we went over. You probably forgot them by now. And...Rubberband magic is not just for kids. I use them in my close up show for adults and wedding receptions all of the time. People...

The effect was created by Arthur Setterington and later refined by Herb Zarrow. Since then people like Dan Harlan have made other additions and routines using rubber bands. I believe Penguin has an instant download to learn this with a few other routines taught with the download for about $7...

WOW...big props man. I loved it. Congratulations!

I have no idea. I am contacting a few people to see what my different routes are. Right now my website is hosted by a company. I can access my site to make real time changes and they do happen instantly which I am happy about but people cannot pull it up on phones or search engines. My...

Scott, I have a website similar to yours that is completely flash based as well so I have the same problem. I love the style and feeling of your site...actually enjoy the background music but yes have the option to turn it off for those who do not want to hear it. The text for the clients to...

Thanks guys. I will look into Stockman's ebook and Scripting for Magicians or Magic...which ever it is. I have Strong Magic and Maximum Entertainment but I don't recall finding what I was looking for in them regarding scripting and routining.

I have heard that it is a great read Casey. I just need to know for sure or not if it discusses routining as well. The description does sound like it will hit on additional items and senses so that will be of great benefit to me as well. Thanks for the suggestion.

Zach, Thanks for the clarification. Good idea since you said you have a lot of equipment...most of that stuff is expensive so you might as well put it to use. Good luck with everything. Hope all is well with you!

I fell into this clip trap a few years ago. If you really think about it, most magicians use standard bikes. At Sam's club and Costco's they are about $1.00 per pack. For the price you pay for a good card clip you could almost buy 25 brand new decks, if not more. However, I guess I do see...

Another convincing force is to have spectators write on blank post cards locations or whatever it is you are working with and drop them into a small cardboard box. You then hold it up high in the air, above eye level, after about 10 cards go in...then release a gimmicked side wall that...

Hey fellas, as you know I am not really a beginner but am looking to make my routines even stronger. I want to be able to get "more" out of each effect. For example: Currently I cram 15 effects into a 45 minute close up show. This is entirely too many. A good magician should be able to do...
