    Saturday Night Contest - Traditional Card Lotto!

    Is there a double backer? That would be my guess.

    Parlor Show

    The effects look great. I would strongly suggest if shows are a new thing for you, to actually write down your patter, then begin to edit and change it as you practice. Then of course practice repeatedly until you can nail the time perfectly. This is a must when working corporate shows, so it's...

    Saturday Night Contest - Fool Us!

    Nice work Patrick! I would be curious to know if anyone knows how I did my coin vanish - it was very unorthodox. If anyone want's to take a shot, pm me. I'm curious. ;)

    Here's a simple coin vanish. Hopefully it hasn't been done before. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPktWqA7IyI

    Hey nice releases guys! The metallic bikes are very nice. Red stingers are pretty slick too. Great stuff.

    "Magician"

    They think "Justin Morris". Well, that's the goal.

    Instant Radio - What's the point?

    That's exactly my point. People like it, so they perform it.

    Talent Show Magic

    Hey man nice job. Too bad the sound was so quiet. I don't know if you want feedback on the show, or if you were just sharing, but I would say that one thing to really try to keep in mind, are the transitions between effects/routines. It's hard when your mic isn't working, but effective, thought...

    Instant Radio - What's the point?

    Unless we are performing for magicians or just ourselves, we often need to put our opinions aside (while still maintaining your own style) and strive to find what our audiences like, enjoy, and find exciting. It's about them at the end of the day. Miser's dream is not a classic just because...

    Peter Eggink's Cased - and why I think it's rubbish

    Wow, this turned into quite the "discussion". Too bad it wasn't all about the effect. I think RDC summarised the point well "He is talking about structure, and how this trick fails at being either a solid foundation for a routine or a really powerful one for a closer." I think I would still...

    Peter Eggink's Cased - and why I think it's rubbish

    Great thoughts, and a great perspective. I would say, in the context of a longer show, it could fit as an end to your card sequence as much as Sudden Deck could be used to open your card segment. But It could never be used as a show/set closer. It could be used as a quick 'stunt' that you do...

    What Kind of Bend?

    I find not using a deck for a while it will straighten out by itself after a few weeks. So its good to have a few on hand. Ive never tried this, but someone once posted that putting them in the freezer helps. Worth a shot.
