I occasionally fly to uni when the train is delayed.

Do Magic Tricks work in picking up girls? Yes Do they work in keeping a girl. No Everyone knows the sword doesn't make the man. I find all these PUMA's (Pick up magic artists) very narrow minded. Learn a few tricks for to show every now and then, go for it! Having magic as your main...

Take risks yes, however having the possibility of hurting your spectators physically or mentally..no.

I had a stage competition not long ago, where I had to come up with a 10 minute routine. A few tips. -Don't neglect audience involvement! -Be creative, and introduce some ideas that have never been used. eg extra props. -Make sure your patter integrates well with each trick. -Finish on a...

Hmm McGill is a great way to learn suggestion, however the material taught is somewhat outdated and some things are outright dangerous to perform. Not saying you shouldn't read his work, however for the magician/mentalist in mind there are some other texts that is more conventional. Banachek...

Finger Palm =D Ok but seriously, yes a shell.

Chances are its a gimmick. (If you saw it performed by Criss Angel that is)

MS Paint + High Quality Print = $18.50

you lived up to your signature =D

I liked the trick. Ill give it an 8/10. Personally I am not a big fan or Criss Angel, but this effect IMO is good from a spectator/third person/ laymen point of view. His goal is to entertain the TV audiences and I think he has done just that. I guess his over inflated ego is the part...

I currently do Barrie Richardson's CAAN. When it comes to commercial card work, I heavily rely on no set up, anytime anywhere approach and Barrie Richardsons's Impormptu CAAN is the best I have come across.

My first non-official gig was at an "assisted living" home filled with non-English speaking 60+ year old elders. Lesson well learned. Create your routines suited for different audiences. -Visual (minimal patter) routine: For those who cannot understand English or remember very well + little...

Listen to the performers podcast linked from Penguin Magic. Know your own skill level and how much your are worth. Charging too much or too little, will not only affect yourself, but other working magicians in your area.

My Heinstein shuffle is modified compared to Karl Hein's regular Heinstein. I shuffle inwards because it suits me better (he also teaches this on his DVD). It's fairly foolproof when performed correctly.

I would toss up between the Truffle Shuffle and the Heinstein Shuffle which sells for a bit more. Truffle Shuffle -Great false riffle shuffle -more open and exposed compared to Heinstein -around 6/10 in difficulty -Performance can be seen on the on Demand section of DnD however I...

A two card transpo, always my opener if I'm performing commercial magic

Dammit stop bringing that up! loll, you can see why I like it as an out now -_-

I think the invisible deck serves me better as an out, than a trick. I definitely love presenting the invisible deck as a trick because it is just that strong with the correct presentation, however having it as an out is the main reason to get it IMO.

The move can be done with almost any USPCC deck, however it works well on Worn out bikes for me. Tally's also are alright. I know someone who uses Studs and gets near perfect Antifaro's everytime, however that maybe because hes not human.
