    Dude... Where the hell do I start? Saying that something is your opinion does not make you immune from disagreements and criticism. Pretending otherwise is a good way to get put on ignore lists. An opinion must be backed up with articulate arguments and defense. It is not and never has...

    New kick starter - magician inspired apparel

    Unless he has a mailing list, it won't. Crowdfunding is way harder than it sounds. I tried it once and failed and spent over a month afterward researching everything I did wrong.

    No. You need to get over this idea that you can bully people into watching you perform. You have to make them come to you.

    Help me !!!

    Are you kidding? There's so much material in there that doesn't require specialized paraphernalia. The problem is not the lack of gimmicks, it's your lack of discipline. There's nothing I can do for you. You're not willing to learn. You're asking for tricks, quick fixes. Not solutions.

    New kick starter - magician inspired apparel

    I guess that answers my question. Kickstarter is crowdfunding, the idea of calling upon a community to donate the completion funds for a project piecemeal. Running one of these campaigns is way harder than it sounds. Do you have a mailing list?

    Age has less to do with it than you'd think. To get into upscale venues, you need to prove that you've got the goods. Age alone won't do that, you need social proof. You need a litany of testimonials singing your praises, a lengthy resume, and one hell of a sales pitch. There's a local guy...

    New idea

    I think what we have here is another young guy whose ego has overshot his talent.

    Hey Guys

    Well first you need to tell us what you already have. If you're serious about learning, you'll want to get more books. Best investment you can make as the price point on most of the essential texts is really low and the density of information is second to none. Mark Wilson's Complete Course...

    Bull. ****. I live in the US and in a city with a notoriously conservative business climate. When I was still a busker, I lost count of the number of self-righteous douchebags telling me get a real job or calling either my parentage or sexual orientation into question. Sometimes I had a...

    .... Are you being flip with me? Dude, no. As great as Tarbell is, you're all over the map and you're asking for tricks, not real working advice.

    Need a set of ideas/tricks to ask a girl out?

    By the safety nets, what I mean is that they're there to catch you when the structure you've been standing on is crumbling. The fact that structure is breaking really sucks. Nobody wants to go through that. But without the safety net to catch you... well, you can use your imagination to see...

    Need a set of ideas/tricks to ask a girl out?

    The concept of the "friend zone" has been bastardized over the last few years. What it originally referred to was the concept that most men disqualify themselves as relationship material in a woman's mind by not acting in a way that would keep that door open. Too many guys make the mistake of...

    Help me !!!

    Oh dear. Let's try to take this slow. First of all, did you accept the offer? If you didn't, politely decline explaining that it's outside your area of expertise. If you did, how much time do you have to rehearse? If it's less than a month, politely ask if you can cancel as you've...

    Why was collins key able to get so popular

    Because he was a good-looking young guy who photographed well and was on TV. That's about it, really. It certainly wasn't for any measure of talent. Of course, like most reality show contestants, he'll be a quick burn. He buys up expensive secrets, then performs them in an unimpressive...

    Difference between revealing and teaching?

    The phrase "self-fulfilling prophecy" comes to mind.

    Need a set of ideas/tricks to ask a girl out?

    Interesting choice of words. They imply that you have done this in the past yourself, perhaps more than once, and that it was successful. Is that indeed the case?

    Places to be for magic

    If you're passing near Pittsburgh anytime, The Cuckoo's Nest is considered one of the best magic shops in the country. A couple years ago, the French magician Arsene Dupin was in town performing at the Renaissance Festival and made time just to visit the store.

    It depends on the room you're in. If there are lots of hard surfaces, you're going to get a lot of reverb. You can mitigate that by putting up some curtains or draping blankets over surfaces that aren't in the frame. If it's a true echo effect, as in you can actually talk over yourself, then...

    Need a set of ideas/tricks to ask a girl out?

    Let me preface this with a quick anecdote. I once knew a guy who is a young virtuoso on guitar. Very, very talented. He like to bring his acoustic to parties to jam with other musicians there. He got a lot of attention when he played a finger-picked remix of the Super Mario Brothers theme...
