Good flourishes / tricks for a battle?

[tally-ho]

Oh, I actually did not know that. I'll try and find some and I might actually do this battle.

They sell them at most magic shops. Geoff Williams also has an interesting set-up for them in Miracles for Mortals volume 2 (great DVD set, by the way).

Here's the link to the thread where I have formally issued the challenge. Remember guys, this is Money by Pink Floyd. I expect a level cool in these videos that could earn an endorsement from The Fonz.

Hell, now that I think of it, somebody should do a coin/paper bill/cigarette manipulation routine to Money by Pink Floyd.

wouuw, I would definetly see that

I think that the concept of the fire is great. Fire is a distractor and an effect that can be put in any magicians arsenal. (I just read that and I feel I sound a bit fancy )

I get a mental image of a bill switch used to produce a flash bill that is then set on fire and used to conceal/reveal the production of a paper airplane when Roger sings "I'm in the high fidelity first-class traveling section, I think I need a Lear jet." End by grinning and tossing the paper airplane at the camera.

I give permission for someone to use that if they feel so inclined. That one's on the house.

I had a similar idea of instantly turning a bill into a bill folded as a plane. Also a slice of pie production. Just kidding about that one.

You should add loops to that routine...
Anyway, who wants to battle on a self-created flourish. It's self created, not your own version of Madonna 3 or any other flourish for that matter. Private Message me if you are interested.

The idea kinda reminds me of something like this. Not the routine, just the idea.

This is exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about. A real blend of visuals with music.

Good magic doesn't equal good material for battles, unfortunately.

What does best in battles is the hardest, more difficult things you can find - even if you can't perform them well, they'll get high marks -.-
