So.. here it is... I hope you enjoy it!!

first, I was asked to be at 8:30 am because the show was at 9.00, so I arrive there and they asked me to wait in a reception, I wasn´t allowed to see where it was going to be filmed... so when I realize it was 9:00 O´clock and they ask me to join the crew "LIVE"
I was very nervous at that moment and then they ask me to give a preview, so did my routine of the silk, the bottle and "Factory Sealed", it was nice but It was very difficult because the angles were very tricky, everything was very fast, I mean really fast..
So they told me that I was going to be interviewed and was going to do one trick and then another trick to a very,very,very hot girl.
in the interview they ask the usual stuff "who you are..., how much time...,exactly what you do....,how much do you earn, bla bla bla" and then I was asked to do a trick, this was the hardest part because at the end I decided for 3 tricks: Distortion, Angle Zero( a variation where you can get them to sign the card and let them examinate before the actual performance) and Life by DG
I Couldn´t use life because there was a lot of light, and Angle Zero wasn´t ready at that moment since they didn´t gave time to prepare it (you know what I mean) so Distortion was perfect because it was angle friendly and It was extremely visual... needless to say they were shocked, the guy wasn´t able to stay on character and they love it, after some commercials I prepare Angle Zero and was the turn of the hot girl, the revealing spot was my necklace since I didn´t know where I was going to be the Interviewed... that some advice you can use later...

everything run normal, the girl screamed like crazy and everything was fine, I was asked to appear every 2 weeks for a little performance everytime...

So that was it, and the quote here is... always be ready for everything and I mean everything... don´t rely on what they told you what you´re going to do.. because everything they told me at the beginning didn´t happen...

Hope you had a great time reading this....see you next time!!

congrats on performing. But I have to say, please write like a normal human being!

But more importantly, good work on being prepared for the unexpected! Any videos of the show?

Way to go man!
Sounds like you had a great performance.

You're correct when you said to not rely on what they told you or what you're going to do and to always be ready.
Like Murphy's law, "What could go wrong, will go wrong."

Great job!
