    R.I.P - Billy Mays

    Okay, how about an insensitive prick? Does that work better for you? You don't know every person on this forum, nor do you know every aspect of their lives, who they know, or whom they are close to. So how can you justify that statement? Dude, this is a grief thread have a little respect...

    R.I.P - Billy Mays

    Congradulations Mitchell! You just won the "Wet Blanket" award! This is a sad day for Hollywood. These things usually come in 3's so I wonder who's next? RIP Billy. You were a legend at sales and marketing.

    Immortality: Impossible Magic

    Every now and again I am humbled and reminded of my own mortality. As much as I hate to face it, as I don't believe anyone enjoys looking down the barrel of a gun, one day I'll die. Today the world was saddened by the loss of not one but two iconic celebrities: Michael Jackson, and Farrah...

    Why Penn and Teller hate magic....

    Penn doesn't hate "magic" he hates "magicians" there is a very big difference, for starters the spelling.

    On The Loss of Michael Jackson :: 06.25.09

    I was hoping to be the first to get this thread up here in tribute, but alas work kept me in way to late. It is indeed true. He was a magical man, an inspiration to many, a hero of my childhood, and he defined an era. R.I.P MJ The world will be an empty place without you.

    In a thread about constructive criticism and that's the best you have to contribute? Weak.

    Any Ideas?

    I thought. I was rather blunt about my point but let me try again for you. Don't be so relient on others. Seek to be self suffecient.

    Any Ideas?

    ...You're a magician right? Figure it out yourself! Create your own handling if need be.

    Stage performance issues... Advice Needed!

    Quite the inspirational post, given the context. Way to go ass. With that bit of unpleasantness out of the way, let me now address Miss Hall's concerns. I don't believe in handycaps. These aren't disabilities that you are cursed with, only a situation you must work around. Your act that...

    Street Magic

    I watched your video, and I've got my usual list of assorted notes for you. 1) Wardrobe! You need a performance costume that will set you aside from everyone else you perform for. You blend in WAY to much with the rest of the marks. Also, The jeans and T-shirt will scream David Blaine...

    A Wise Quote...

    Heath Ledger is dead, and this thread will be too if this doesn't stay close to a magic topic. The observation is accurate. I think I even used that quote when I wrote "How to Get Gigs, and Keep Clients." However, There is something that is to be said for doing free shows. Doing a...

    Magic in close quaters...

    Unless your roomate is Valintino They probably won't care enough to really pay enough attention to learn your secrets. If they do catch something then it would really take an absolute dick to follow you around telling everyone you perform for how it's done. I wouldn't fuss over this at all...

    Close Up Card Montage

    Overall I enjoyed this video. It wasn't too long and it was pretty well performed. I do have some notes for you. 1) More character. Continue to focus on developing your character and bring that out in these videos. That's what will separate you from the thousands of other magic montages...

    I'm Back---and I've Got Something to Say

    Bingo. It is possible to over analyze something to death. Sometimes it is just better to "do it" and to hell with what the critics and egg heads think.

    I've Hit A Crossroads With My Magic

    I realized that in my previous response I was vague if not out right responsive to specific questions you had asked. Allow me to be a little more direct with this reply. I've heard it said that you may not make a million dollars but you'll live as if you had it. Quantity does not always...
