Interesting...might have to look into it more one day. Thanks! Steve

While I agree with everyone, all the great magic that happened before, I'm going to play devil's advocate here. When something like that is sooooo hyped up, and then fails, you can't help but focus on the error at the end. True, it was one helluva special with some incredible pieces of magic...

Learned Pig??? All I know about that is Ricky Jay's book... ;)

7 pages of this crap?!?!? Sheesh...I'm surprised the kid hasn't already gone off on you guys, which some of you deserve it. In all honesty, it's a joke how many people on here think that they're completely original, but in the grand scheme of things are just another copy of their favorite...

Wow... I want to say I'm surprised by Matty's generosity, but in all honesty, I'm not. This is just the kind of person he is, and it fits who he is to the "T"...... In fact, it's acts of kindness like this that help to strengthen the community as a whole, and Matty is a perfect example of the...

I normally get the time, date, type of show (strolling, stand up, close up, etc), # of people, etc. As for forms, unless the show is last minute, I get an address to mail out a contract. That basically says they pay x amount up front, and the rest when I arrive before the show. Failure to do...

It's already available for sale here. :D http://www.theory11.com/tricks/compression.php

Don't get me wrong...David/s magic was second to none. Then again, his magic has never been in question so I feel no need to go there. The bullet catch? Simply superb. I would have to say my favorite part of the special was his Hundy 500 performance. Nothing comes closer to real magic, than...

WTF???? I thought I missed it at first, or it was leading up to something but that??? :rolleyes: I was very impressed with everything else, just thought the ending was a bit lacking due to such hype....

Recognition is what keeps us going. If it weren't for any praise, we'd all just get bored and quit. Great story too!! -Steve

Yea, I just got the same email from Bryant too. :)

Well, here are a few questions for you. 1. What performing experience, if any, do you have that you feel prepares to you perform in a restaurant? Please explain. 2. Have you ever done any shows, paid or not, that you feel compares to performing in the real world? Please explain. 3...

Thanks guys! Once again, all the kind words and comments are sincerely appreciated! :) -Steve

Shane, Sounds like your itinerary is packed dude! Sheesh...when do you have time to eat, sleep, and shower?!? :eek: Anyways, best of luck to you. I think that's not only incredibly generous, but says a lot about your character. And to be perfectly honest, what you're doing is something we...

Thanks for all the comments guys! Also, if I'm not around the forums, I always have an email address that I read about every day. steven@simmonsmagic.com And yes, I did bring cake. Come and get it! :p And one for the married folks out there....................

That would be me...but this time, I didn't come looking for the gig, it found me by way of someone whom many of you will recognize the name. Today I got a call from Eric Henning...most will probably know him, so no introduction is necessary. Anyways, turns out he got a new restaurant, and he...

Whoa...yesterday really was my lucky day! Won some money on a scratch off (that paid for my cards), and now this. Thanks a lot T11!! And congrats to all the other winners!!!! :D -Steve P.S. I've never won anything like this...I just ordered because yesterday was a good day overall...

So who all ordered some cards yesterday??

I'm with Sinful on this one...without trying to crush anyone's ideas, I don't think it would draw much of a crowd either. In school, doing the "cool" thing is often a big part of making decisions in school. Let's face it, most of what we do in school, i.e. joining clubs, elective classes...

My guess is that it's one long ass podcast... :p
