Thanks for the review, it sounds like there's some good stuff in it. I'll probably go back to it sometime. I worked through the first few chapters a while ago then I got bored and went back to learning stuff from The Trilogy.

Perhaps it's just very knacky, i've been trying it and it seems very difficult, I just can't consistently get the top packet to clear the bottom one.

How is it milking people for cash? The amount of money he'll be getting is negligible. The money is just so he can get to the next place, he's not making any profit from it. There doesn't seem to be any selfishness in it at all. He probably thinks doing this will help him connect with people...

Surfaced Production - This was produced by Dan and Dave Buck so the layout and music of the DVD is very similar in style to The Tricks DVD of the Trilogy. Watch - This section shows Chad Nelson performing all the effects on Surfaced for a live audience. Chad Nelson is very likeable and...

Unfortunately there are a few people who are in magic to get popular and to get girls etc. However these people are definitely a minority. I think most people have a lot more respect for magic than to use it to get girls. These people may say that other people are in magic for the same...

I don't really know who he was but I am very sorry to hear this. It sounds like he was an brilliant performer, I will take a look at his videos.

It seems like common sense to put the cards somewhere the spectators won't be able to pick them. To be honest I think it's stupid to just hope that they won't pick one of the Ace - 4 of spades as obviously it's going to happen quite a few times if you regularly perform Five Speed. Just...

Once or twice a month there seems to somebody who wants to create their own website, sell effects etc and I have yet to see it work. I don't believe somebody with no credibility can pull this off succesfully, you say you will "work with people and turn their ideas into the best they can be"...

I think deleting it may be more appropriate. Nearly all BrianationX's posts are spam about Brian Tudor, he should be banned.

All your posts are spam and not really worth replying to as it appears your just trying to annoy everyone but I will anyway. Brian Tudor is great but his teaching is terrible and it's not because his material is exceptionally hard. The cuts on The Trilogy are far more complex than any moves...

You just completely ruined this, these posts were obviously just a way to bring up your stupid argument about comedy magic that nobody agrees with.

Artist vs artist probably wouldn't work very well, I don't see how it could possibly be fair. If it was Lee Asher Vs Aaron Fisher, Lee Asher would win if it was an ace production battle but Aaron Fisher would win if it was best pass. This is why magic battles just don't work, magic is far...

First you should learn the Sybil cut, there's loads of tutorials on decknique and youtube. You should also learn the One handed revolution cut. I'd then take a look at some of Kevin Ho's free tutorials on youtube http://www.youtube.com/user/kevhonline After that i'd recommend either Disc...

If you can't get a girl without magic you won't get one with magic. Perhaps you could do a couple of tricks after you've got to know her but I don't even think that's a good idea really.

It seems like a good idea to me, although only for flourishing. I think magic battles are a stupid idea. Why do you care if they're working on The Wire or not, we know nothing about it, you might not even like it.

I think we seriously overestimate how much people actually care about magic. You probably will occasionally meet someone who has looked up a few tricks on Youtube but most people just don't care that much. When people go home they'll most likely watch TV, listen to music etc. Not go on the...

If I have no cards then I will not perform, i'm not going to perform some mediocre routine completely unprepared just because i've been asked to. This is unlikely to be a problem though as I take a deck of cards with me everywhere.

Dan and Dave are not professional magicians and do not regularly perform for people. I believe they just perform mostly for friends, family and other magicians. I would not want to see Dan and Dave performing street magic as I think most of their effects are completely inappropriate for this...

I think this is something we can always try and achieve. Even though we can't completely convince a spectator it's real we can hide the method so well that they will be thinking 'It can't be magic.. but it's impossible, there's no way anyone could do that'. If they are thinking like this I...

On some occasions you may be able to blur the line between illusion and reality however you should not make this your objective for every performance. Any intelligent person knows that what you're doing isn't real and if you keep trying to convince them that it is then you will be insulting...
