Hello Theory 11 Members! I am new to this Group and am enjoying reading and learning from others with the same passion for Magic. I am a Commercial Banker by day (sales guy) and my main hobby is playing the guitar, and I always have loved Magic and performing. I am pretty good with a regular deck of cards with 4-5 tricks, and bought several tricks years ago (Scotch n Soda, IT, Pen through Dollar, TT. I actually used these and they always get a great reaction. I have recently got the "bug" again and performed some tricks at my team's Christmas Party. I was standing on the other side of an outdoor bar, 8 feet across from my Boss, and made a coin vanish with S&S. I told him to look in his back pocket (I'm pretty sneaky) and he was like, no way! So, I that made me remember how fun magic was to do and I decided to get some new tricks.
I have been looking at various tricks here and on the net, and got a little carried away and just ordered several new tricks yesterday and today, as a few other small items last week on eBay: 2 PK Rings (sure they will be cheap), 10 pre-made loops that I got today. Here are the New Tricks I just ordered below. Please comment if there is a cool trick I that I should consider getting eventually. All these tricks I bought made all my Money Disappear!
OK here is my list of Spells and Trickery I ordered:
-TKO 2.0 (The Kaylor Option BLACK & WHITE Book, DVD, Gimmick). Looks pretty cool!
-Odyssey by Calin Morelli (got 1 size larger ring than I wear). Hoping it is good??!
-Departure by Chris Smith (new version)
-Ignition by Chris Smith (love my old trusty pen, so this will bring me into 2017)
-Sven Pad (included 2 pocket size pads and a free pen for $35)
-American Version Scotch & Soda (Magnetic, Dollar/Quarter) by Tango Magic
-Scotch & Soda (Magnetic) Half-Dollar and Mexican Centavo by Tango Magic
-Invisible Deck (cheap so why not)
-Mirage Deck (cheap so why not)
-Fire Wallet (I know this is stupid, and I'm slightly embarrassed to admit it, but I think it will be funny to use this. It's so damn ridiculous and silly! ha ha ha
-PK Rings (off eBay, cheap, so I am not expecting much)
-Loops (came with 10 off eBay. Never used loops, but have used IT. I was seriously looking and considering the Spider Pen, but it was expensive and I read conflicting reviews and it was expensive).
-Pen through Dollar (cheapo off eBay just to see what I get)
Please feel free to comment on anything I purchased, or offer advice if there is something I should read, study, and buy, to get better at Magic. I am not an expert, but pretty coordinated (I play the guitar and can shred if needed), and pick up magic pretty fast and am comfortable in front of people and crowds. I SAY I am coordinated, but I tried to do that damn "card spin' on my right middle finger, flicking it with my pointer, and couldn't do it. I only tried for a minute just to see what it felt like.
I look forward to learning from many of you guys on here and just wanted to stop by and say hello. See, I told you I got carried away. I think I bought too much stuff......
Take Care and Happy 2017 to All!
