    Good luck. I'd recommend that you do one other trick to counter balance. That's something I always notice. People will only do one trick. Do between 2 and 4. Throw in some cards or something. Or a money trick... In fact, Stigmata is powerful enough that it should be your closer. Do...

    No offense or anything, but do magicians really want to see them? Don't you think people who have no knowledge of magic would rather see you perform? We've all seen the tricks before, but people where you can get gigs (bars, restaurants, etc.) would be thouroughly more entertained...

    How do you perform flourishes?

    I flourish in the middle of a routine to sort of show off to my spectators. I'll just talk causally. I'll do a swivel cut. Maybe a charlier. And then pop a geurilla false sybil on their asses.

    Hell, practice however you want. Just make it flawless. But trust me; nothing cleans up your moves faster than doing them in front of somebody who is enough of a jackass to call you out when you screw up. And it doesn't take that much of a jackass. How do you become a vet? Fight on the...

    Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm pretty sure I said something along the lines of: Which means that you should practice. Which basically means that you should practice. Which means practice. Practice. And then perform for people.

    I'm not saying don't practice. I'm saying perform for real-live people who are right there in front of you, watching you, laughing, screaming, hearts beating, minds racing... Do that.

    Underground Moves

    Most of these artists are actuall bizarre mutant mole-people living in tunnels underneath the earth. Ever wonder why De'vo wears that wierd cloak? To cover up his hideous mutant-mole face. "Moves" is actually a code-word that translates into something along the lines of: "Before long, We...

    4for4 Practical Applications

    Oh snap! I've got one. A 4 card monte using the blackjack turn over move to always switch the chosen card for the same ace. Then they all change to kings. That makes enough sense to me.

    In the Beginning...

    Absolutely. That's why magic is so powerful. It's not everyday that the spectator sees someone bend the laws of the universe to his or her will. It's that astonishment. That's what I live for. I go slow. Astonishment shouldn't be delivered with an explosion. It should be shown as a...
