I would like to hear other magicians feelings on the positive or negative impact You Tube has on our art.
At first I loved the fact that I could see a lot of my heros in action, especially the old-timers. Back in the day, the only time the old footage was ever seen was on Movie Night at the magic club.
But what about the glut of amatures that are doing bad versions of our treasured classics? This is worse that the Masked Magician on Fox TV!
The place for magicians to earn their "chops" is at Birthday Parties, Blue and Gold Banquets and County Fairs. Not on the web where every error is magnified and criticism is seldom constructive.
What do you think?
