    Street Magic

    I love, absolutely love, that you are going out to real people and performing for them. That takes guts that alot of people do not have. I applaud you for that. However I am not a fan of your video and presenting style. I am also not a fan of Criss Angel either and your style is similiar...

    An Underground Rap Video at A Magic Theater

    That...was...awful. All she did was sound like a girl version of early Eminem. Her lyrical style, delivery and musicality is all like his. Nothing lyrically worth listening to. I love rap and hip-hop. I am a turntablist, and have been so for 8 years, and this was some of the worst music I have...

    What was the first effect you learned?

    Ive got a good one. The first magic trick I ever learned, was one I reverse engineered at the age 4. I saw Bozo the clown on tv when I was very little. I loved that show. I saw him give two kids the opposite ends of a rope, and stuck the middle down his pants. When they pulled the rope...

    A video project. Please help?

    Are you doing this for a class or anything? I will participate, but while I do have a good camera, its not HD quality or anything. If you do not want me to participate because of this, I understand.

    Finger Excercises

    Oh you were successful. Its interesting to watch, I can't do any of it. When I watch it I try to follow along, then I get frustrated and quit. I was not trying to down your post, just trying to fill you in as to why people were not giving you the response you figured they would. I think when...

    Finger Excercises

    I think the reason noone replied is because I would bet that most people have seen stuff like this before, and have seen it better. Its not that its not cool, just that theres really nothing to say except "cool", which does not really merit a reply. I dont mean to put you off at all, please do...

    Recommended Vid Cameras?

    Let me just say, that I love my flip camera. The best thing is that in two seconds, literaly, I can have it on and start shooting. The built in mic is great, and as you can hear in the video of DG singing in the diary video, it is almost as if it has selective hearing. They are wonderful.

    Magic in close quaters...

    I am leaving soon, 2 months, for college. I am moving out to live the dorm life so I can sleep where I eat, eat where I study, sleep while I study and shower with everyone. I am really looking forward to it, but theres one problem... Where will I practice? I will be living with a roommate...

    What Gambit should have been...

    Dang, that really sucks. I was lucky enough to watch it once. It was crazy good as usual.

    Firestarters?

    It is not a good dvd. I would not advise it. I also would not advise using magic as a way to meet girls. I mean, I feel that you would be better off not relying on a gimmick to meet people in general and make friends, but just learn to be sociable.

    Recommend a Book / DVD

    You know what DVD series I feel does not get enough attention, Bill Malone's On the Loose. It has got a ton of stuff on it, mostly cards but its got other close up effects. Bill is a crazy good card guy and all around magician, and I learned alot from him in this series.

    Magic Table

    Dang, all of those are so organized and so neatly layed out. Where my magic happens is also where The magic happens; my bed. I also have a lacoste shoe box full of cards, matches, sharpies and rubber cement. All you guys' setups are making me a little jealous.

    Showing the wrong card...

    Funny you bring this up. Today I was performing and I had them pick a card, put it back, but they put it back weird and I lost it. So I aborted the trick, started a new one with some excuse and to my surprise, she picked the same card she had picked just two seconds ago. My jaw it the floor and...

    Raise Rise after 3 days

    Well I understand you want to prove your point. But I could do the pass after 5 minutes, but its been a year and some now and I have never performed it. I mean I could drive a dirtbike across a ramp and jump 30 cars after three days, but that doesn't mean I would try it, and I wouldn't think of...

    Raise Rise after 3 days

    Dude, I mean, I shake when I am performing live, but even then it is only when I first get the cards out and it is not nearly as bad as what I just seen. Ask any magician if they can learn it in three days, and if they are mature enough, if respect themselves, other magicians and our art in...

    Card Force

    I second all that. I learned the substitute transfer and I have found many applications for it. Its very versatile, as it functions as more than a force.

    Would you change your performance for Females/Males?

    I change mine. Shanku made a great point that I put into practice as to how to change your effects to better appeal to your audience. Not that the one does not appeal to the other, just that in practice it is a safer bet to go with the consensus. As part of my "always ready-routine", I do...

    This sounds like a good idea for a Michael Ammar joke, but I just can't quite get it formed.

    Card box/case

    Trading card boxes are an alright idea, but theres no way they will fit in your pocket. They are designed to hold cards in protective sleeves and are huge and will not be comfortable. I would say go for an E clip, I have one and its lasted years and does a great job. Necessity is the mother of...
