Coming from a teacher's perspective I'm greatly disappointed to hear such nonsense. Without teachers these people would never have learned to sound out letters,read, write, comprehend text, interact socially with others properly, learn to think creatively, taken advanced classes,etc. I'm sure...

Magician, Did you read DannyT's post? It doesn't matter how encrypted the DVDs / videos are. People just set their cam corders up in front of the TV screen and tape it as it plays. Not that complicated. I'm not sure what the answer is but I understand JM's frustration as well as many...

This is the best solid advice right here. I do the same thing. It is not the same sitting on the couch doing it. I actually go out and start practicing it on people like friends, family, and other magicians in our IBM ring. They will give you feedback on flashing, pacing, patter, etc. You...

Sorry if a review has been posted on this already but I am going to give my own anyway...ha ha. I think I was one of the first to purchase this straight from Kostya so he gave me a special code that doubles my next order for the same price. Awesome. I will definitely be placing that order soon...

Its a tough decision and a double edged sword. The creator can stop releasing effects, keep them to themselves, but then they are missing out on a boat load of revenue from sales. Piracy is going to be a problem no matter what for awhile. Even if DVD's are encrypted a certain way, then...

Morgician, Great points and tips. I never eat / stay for dinner during the gigs but at this one they specifically wanted me to do one hour and then cut for an hour and then go back at it an hour later. Question: In this situation, is it customary to bill them for this time that you are just...

They came to me. This was a young couple who saw me performing magic out at a bar on St. Patrick's Day last year. They said they wanted something "different" than what their friends had done at their weddings. I gave them business cards all the way back then and then they contacted me via my...

Your welcome man. Definitely be ready to do all magic in your specs hands or your own. I thought there might be a little room on the tables but I was wrong. Absolutely none and I didn't want to grab peoples items and move them. That would be rude and imposing in their space. You really need...

Yes...I had more on me but I disregarded 3 of them that would need set down on the table because of the lack of room. I got away with 6 effects easily. This reception had over 30 tables. I spent about 5-8 minutes at almost all of them. Danny, you would be fine. The only thing is to have a...

Danny, I'm beat dude. Just returned from a wedding gig. See my thread for details. We will definitely chat again soon. Hope all is well with you.

Alright guys I've just returned from my first wedding reception gig. I showed up early, scoped out the tables, met the D.J. and MOST importantly became friends with the photographer. This came in handy throughout the night because as people crowded around me and enjoyed the magic she was...

Chris said don't message him on here. He barely even checks this site unless he has time to release something. He is very swamped with work. He said if you need to contact him, use his facebook account. I arrived early and then met one of the girls down front. Make sure you are early enough...

Ash, you are killing me girl. You were one of the lucky ones to go backstage weren't you? Ha Ha. Or....were you one of the ones to do the scorpion effect or the 13 person vanish. I was at the same show.

Only a few people cared to read about the Copperfield show? Seriously guys? Are you guys so young that you don't know who this is? Maybe. Oh well. I grew up watching this guy and it was awesome to go see him live.

The car effect was unbelievable. Insane how it just appeared out of the sheets. I cannot just say that one effect was better than others. Each one had been placed into the show for a specific purpose. He had a great variety.

That sounds sweet Brad. If you can get footage of that trip to post that would be outstanding! Can't wait to hear about this one.

I will second the Biddle Trick idea. I perform it daily almost and it gets insane reactions.

This has been mentioned numerous times but I still think the Guardians are only being shipped to certain Walmarts because I've checked for the past year, weekly and have yet to see them at my local Walmart.

I'm back from Copperfield in Cleveland. All I have to say is it was an outstanding night!!! This will be long but a very in depth review. Please read it...you'll love it. Our seats were 12 rows back from the very front. I took the tickets that I originally had which were quite a bit further...

My wife and I are headed to Cleveland in a few hours for the Copperfield show. I'm super pumped. I will try to give a good review when I get back around 10 oclock tonight.
