    Daniel Madison - Change

    There's the word of the day again.

    Daniel Madison - Change

    No, that's the explanation you came up with. It does nothing to change my point. Nor does it contradict the fact that I'm always right.

    Daniel Madison - Change

    I love how magicians think they're smarter than they actually are. And they get so offended over any deception, real or imagined. Fail. Let's go with that word.

    What happened to magicians?

    I'm crippled by the irony.

    What happened to magicians?

    Assuming this isn't a joke (and I'm not entirely sure it isn't), some of the responses those videos are getting are just as obnoxious as the videos themselves.

    FOX News on Angel's Escape

    How do you figure? So they're different, so it's okay? This just proves my point that there is little, if any, solidarity among artists. A bunch of jackals looking out for Number 1.

    There are a lot of ways to respond to that, some more professional than others. If anybody cares, I can relate my own experiences with real audiences through PM.

    Weekly Debate Question #3...

    So do many of the greats in the history of our art. It only became demonized in the last generation or so. Personally speaking, I also would take the method that is the most likely to not result in death. If, by your logic, that makes me less of a man, then call me Sissy McDoilyPants. But...

    FOX News on Angel's Escape

    The only thing people love more than a celebrity is tearing them down. Magicians are not immune from this combination of vouyeuristic stupidity and sadism. If anything, these incidents show the community at its worst.

    Thoughts on Criss Angel

    How much is he paying you to say this? I don't like Criss as a person that much... and I like his fans even less.

    Custom Cards Are Bad?

    Anecdotal evidence doesn't count. Saying people are smarter and that's why they figure things out is just an excuse for failure. And this doesn't happen to me.

    Vest/Holster Question

    High Calibre Holsters. Gotta warn you, they're incredibly expensive.

    Custom Cards Are Bad?

    Luck is the excuse used by those who failed.

    Old School Magicians?

    You've inadvertently answered my question. You know nothing about Modernism. You can't be a revolutionary unless you master convention first.

    Old School Magicians?

    Again, I ask if you are familiar with Modernism in an artistic context? If you want to advance the discussion, this is important.

    Bizzare magic show help...

    I wouldn't do Stigmata. I'd recommend you look into Mark Edward's book Restless Plots if possible and study the card tricks therein, particularly the Tarot effects. As for music, Nox Arcana has some good stuff. Personally speaking, I'm a fan of Anders Manga and have considered using his...

    Old School Magicians?

    Brian, some people are mysterious because they don't tell you anything. Others are "mysterious" because they don't know anything. Which side of the fence are you on. I notice you use the word modern a lot. Typically capitalizing the M as you would in naming an artistic movement such as...

    How many "mainstream" effects do you perform?

    Ah yes, Heckler. A routine designed to humiliate an audience member. I'm sure that will make you feel tough for a while, but much like pimp slapping a bull mastiff it's something you'll live to regret. I just hope you get it on camera, since I could use a good laugh. Anyway, I'm not sure why...
