    Places to be for magic

    Baltimore is also a really good city for magic too. I would suggest getting a bike and using Greyhound buses to travel around.

    Difference between revealing and teaching?

    I wouldn't listen to everything Brian Brushwood says. The guy tried to do a smash and stab routine and ended up impaling his hand through a large nail. He's not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed. The difference is really this. There are guys on youtube who "teach" sleights and effects (but...

    Got 5 Minutes to Perform (Advice Needed)

    Just stick with Fiber Optics and end it there. You only have five min and your doing it for 200 people. It should do the job just fine.

    Got 5 Minutes to Perform (Advice Needed)

    Being that you have 5 min and it's for a large audience. I would say just do a quick 3 phase Fiber Optics routine and then end it.

    charging for close up

    Nothing wrong with being up front and getting as much information as you can about an event. This helps weed out the people who are actually worth your time, from the people who just want your services for free (which can often times turn into a nightmare gig.)

    Got 5 Minutes to Perform (Advice Needed)

    You're kind of shooting yourself in the foot when you don't have them show everybody else the card. Because what happens if the person forgets their card in the heat of the moment? What happens if they decide to screw with you and say it's not their card? These are the reasons most guys will...

    charging for close up

    Another thing to think about is Charity events. Do not do them for free unless you actually know anything about said event and actually support the cause. Because if they try to get you to do for free. Remember, the DJ is being paid, The staff is being paid, The Caterer is being paid and so is...

    America's Got Talent suggestions

    I would suggest avoiding AGT at all costs because it will either be a huge waste of energy or make you look like a tool on live TV. Also, the other reason is all the time constraints they will place on you, even if you have a good stage act. Your act will still be cut extremely short and a lot...

    I would suggest you look up Michael Eaton, him and Kostya Kimlat run a contracting business for Restaurant magicians in FL, also he is going to be putting out a tracking system for Restaurant performers in the next couple months.

    charging for close up

    Check their reviews on yelp. Before even thinking about approaching a restaurant. ALWAYS check their reviews on yelp or any other social media site. This will prevent you ending up on a sinking ship and barely making any money at all.

    Just do a Jumbo ID and it should go over fine.

    How to stop magic piracy?

    That and from what I've seen of The Wire is that a good majority of the things on there are all color changes. Which might explain why none of this stuff is published in any magazines. Also, a good lot of them seem like they were made only for a camera man/angle. Which to me seems to be a...

    How to stop magic piracy?

    I personally think that a lot of people, current younger Magic fans need to learn how to be picky when it comes to buying DVD's, downloads or books. Ironically, that didn't happen for me till I hit 29 and started focusing more on paying for lessons online and getting my information from there...

    How to stop magic piracy?

    I don't really see too much of a problem with the 5 dollar downloads. Look at the Michael Ammar lecture that is coming out. It's one freaking dollar. Yet, you KNOW you are going to get a TON of great things from it.. Because it's being taught by one of the top performers in the country. As for...

    How to stop magic piracy?

    I know this is off topic, but one my favorite effects he put out was Paper clipped and the DVD of him actually performing for real people with it was really refreshing. What is sad about it is you'd think he'd have some sort of buffer (IE: Friends in the industry to test things and ideas out on...

    How to stop magic piracy?

    There will never be a time when we will have a "youtube magician". Sure, there are a TON of awful,awkward, mediocre bland performers on youtube. The only time I think magic works somewhat on youtube is when it's about a guy showing a group of real people magic that was recorded. Other than that...

    Michael Ammar Lecture next month. "At The Table".

    I was originally going to keep this to myself, but as Bruce Cervon would say "If you want something to be kept a secret, share it with everybody." or something along those lines. The Lecture will be online at MJM magic for an incredibly reasonable price of.... 1$ for right now till after...

    Present a trick without presentation?

    Apollo Robbins and Shoot Ogawa have DVD's that are pretty much magic without a presentation.

    Preserve cards

    Most playing cards are not made to last forever. Specially if you use them a lot, but this is pretty much not a big deal if your buying regular bikes at like 1 or 2 bucks a pack. But if you're using those super custom neato decks. You're going to be spending way too much money on them a month...
