Respectifully, I am not sure I can agree with the card tricks on the 9-12 year olds. I have found that cards are best for the fifteen and up crowd. Though, you did remind me of something else... As far as shiny stuff is concerned, you could take those chocolate coins and then do tricks with...

I have been thinking about getting the Street Magic Set for some time now, and I just wanted to get some thoughts before I dropped my money (about 120 bucks) on this. It comes with the following: * Hummer Card by Jon Jensen * Floating Bill by Jon Jensen * Self Levitation DVD...

If I were you, I would buy Seriously Silly as quickly as possible and just start tearing through that book to the best of your ability. Trust me, it is one of the leading books on how to deal with kid's parties and what not. Overall though, your age difference is going to be difficult to...

Yeah, that sounds great! I am glad that you were able to pull it off. And to answer your question, it isn't exposure because you just mentioned the sleights you were using and not some deep rooted secret. Just some food for thought.

If you are looking for a brand new routine, you can always look up Joshua Jay's Course in Magic. It is a good little place to start looking for what and how to put things together.

How practical? Extremely, though you have to learn how to adapt a couple of things of it. I have found that about twenty percent of the material to be outdated and just wouldn't work in a lot of circumstances of today. Though, it teaches so many of the basics and is able to turn those basics...

Sad day... How about some research tips for looking up morre things about cards? Books? Papers written by other people? Or are you going to make me do it myself =P

I agree with towtox. The main thing is how the finish helps you fan, it lasts a bit longer, and looks a lot better than bikes. Where as, Tally Ho's feel a slight bit thinker, making them harder to break in for springs and any flourishes that require bending. I my opinion, it is a gain...

It happens, and trust me, we have had some off the wall topics that have slid through the cracks. And now you know, and knowing is half the battle.... G I JOOOOOE

Yeah... I hate to join the party pooper parade, but I am not sure if you ever read the subtitle to General Discussion. It reads: "For all general discussion related to magic and cardistry. No discussions of Danny Garcia's nunchuck skills, legos, pogs, or ninja related activities." I hope that...

I am laughing at this one Sabor because you failed to put his correct error down =P

Serious? Is there any way that I could get a copy of the papers you wrote on them? I would love to read them =)

Thanks for the hard work Steve, and congrats on your award =)

I have seen it before and it is things like these that make me want to go into a two man act. The only thing is, who would be my second man....

Flame, hmm... I like the sound of the wire already =P

I use some of these facts in my patter and I have found that it helps. Very good to know if you a card magician.

PS Congrats TheatreHead for winning that one.

Does anybody know if there are going to be any other effects on the DVD or is it just Helter Skelter?

I would do it, as Lanniesmagic said. But I also know a calm for the nerves: practice. I have found that with good solid practice I have been able to overcome my nerves over time, why? Because with practice comes skill and with skill comes confidence. Confidence is the opposite of...

I had the same problem. I have been working with the same Marines for two years now, and they know most of my stuff. One thing that helped was that I retreated from showing them things. Because they saw less and less, it became something more desirable. I also practice a lot so that my...
