    What is your one coin routine?

    For my one coin routine I do this. I present it as a sleight of hand demonstration. I vanish the coin and say that it went up my sleeve, and produce the coin from the outside of the sleeve. I then do the same thing except I produce it from my skin, saying that we magicians can hide coins in...

    Just a Few Performance Stories

    Oh here's a funny story, you can try it out sometime. I was performing for what seemed like a really smart ass guy. He would try to call me out on all of my tricks like my coin and rubber band tricks. So i decided to mess with him a little bit. After doing a few card tricks, i knew he would want...

    Just a Few Performance Stories

    No, the thing is this. I didnt even intend it to be a deck vanish. I was just simply putting the cards away. They took it was a vanish though, so i played it off as part of the trick. @penguincdude: Yes, the purpose of magic is to entertain. But you should also have fun practicing and have...

    Just a Few Performance Stories

    Here are some stories. Once i was doing a dollar bill prediction trick that involved a thumb tip. During a performance, some guy said "Lemme see your thumb!". So So i held the thumb tip in my fist and held out my thumb. He looked at it and said "Oh ok, i thought you had those numbers written...

    Just a Few Performance Stories

    Well not really I knew there was gonna be time to perform that day so i had the Laced gimmick with me and my sponge balls. But EB and 5 and 1 transpo i carry with me everywhere. I'm not one of those magicians that only rely on sleight of hand. I do whatever impresses my audiences and if...

    Just a Few Performance Stories

    Its great to hear that you'll be performing for strangers. Dont worry about the nervousness, you'll get over it in time. Just keep on performing and performing, dont worry if you mess up. Eventually, you're not gonna shake at all, and you'll laugh at the fact you were ever nervous at all...

    Hand to Mouth

    There are so many other card to mouth effects. Most of them involve a folded card appearing inside the mouth rather than sticking out of the mouth. The Silent Treatment is an example of this kind of trick. I love The Silent Treatment and i highly recommend it. It's the best opener ever for a...

    Question about some things.

    Beyond Secrets is a no-no. His ideas are good but he doesnt really god into detail, he only skims the surface. Strong Magic is a must. Best book ever. Designing Miracles is good too but you might wanna hold off on that and read Strong Magic first. Maximum entertainment is good but i prefer...

    Cups and Ball Idea

    My favorite ending is always the penny load. Its where at the end of a routine, the magician lifts one of the cups and a hundred pennies fall out. I think it's really baffling cuz it seems impossible to load that without making any noise which makes it that much more magical. That, or live...

    Cups and Ball Idea

    I was sort of referring to this concept: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zc8EAqiNcTs only done with cups and instead of lids.

    Cups and Ball Idea

    Well i guess you could do that. But the cups and balls sets are designed so that each cup can only fit inside another only half way. But you could maybe load a smaller cup under it, and then an even smaller cup under that, and with more cups under it that get progressively smaller.

    Neil Patrick Harris

    Neil Patrick Harris is a great magician. He's also the only gay celebrity that hasnt been dumped on by the public. Now that's magic.

    New Website!

    Sorry guys, it was just an idea. Someone from this site suggested this to me on a thread a while ago. I've never actually used it because i'm against lying and all that, even if it's stretching the truth. I only suggested because i've found that people are getting more and more used to lying...

    Card Manipulation Deck?

    I always use what's called a Norm Nielson deck. They're bridge sized, brown backed, super thin, with four pips and will only cost around $5, which is eight dollars less than the one on T11. Those are the most basic kinds of manipulation cards. The problem with those cards is that you can...

    Boxed In - Andrew Lee

    I think that this can work in the real world if you have the right presentation. For example, after you do a trick where you color change a card into their card (a normal color change) you can go: Ok, now that was cool and all but some people get suspicious when i do that changing thing...

    New Website!

    I agree with what ineski said. As for spicing up your biography, you can stretch the truth a little. Say you learned your magic from some of the world's greatest magicians including Dai Vernon, Paul Daniels, and Derren Brown. Just dont mention the fact you learn it from a book or dvd. Cuz...

    Questions on Table Hopping

    I think you should study some more on table hopping magic. Cuz one of the fundemental rules of table hopping is that the tricks have to have quick, if not instant resets. Cuz you have no time to go by yourself to set-up. If the boss sees you in a corner doing nothing, you're gonna get yelled at...
