    Mentalism/Think of a card effect

    "Think-of-a-card" usually refers to spreading the deck, or a a group of cards, and having the spectator just mentally select one. The best version I've come across is Garrett Thomas's "Look-a-Card" from volume 3 of his "Inside the Mind" 3 DVD set. It's killer. So fair and open, and it's...

    How can I gain confidence to perform to the public

    There ya go. Nice decision, man. As John Wayne famously said, "Courage is being scared to death but saddling up anyhow." :)

    How can I gain confidence to perform to the public

    To be honest, it is that easy. You're letting your thoughts make it difficult. All you have to do is say something to someone. Anything. Compliment them or ask them an indirect question--whatever--get into a conversation and go from there. As the old saying goes: your desire to change needs to...

    JM's First hand vs RS's Extreme burn 2.0

    Dan White taught his Handy 500 handling, which is exactly that--Hundy 500 in the spectator's hand--on the Juan Hundred Dollar Bill Change (Doug McKenzie) DVD that was released back in 2006--6 years ago.

    What magic items do you carry

    You're absolutely ridiculous. That's all I have to say. Carry on.

    What magic items do you carry

    Your name-calling and accusations are the only thing that's arrogant, Josh. And you may want to reconsider accusing someone of being dimwitted when you demonstrate such low-level reading comprehension skills. Perhaps consider setting aside your knee-jerk reactions for a moment and take the time...

    What magic items do you carry

    No, it doesn't. At least not unless you subscribe to the belief that everything one person says is absolute truth and can never be challenged by any other opposing opinion.

    What magic items do you carry

    David Berglas's philosophy on magic is at the opposite end of your advice. Interesting.

    INSANE by Andy Nyman

    You're lying to yourself.

    Who's gonna be the next big Magician in the USA ?

    I think it's going to be a while before we see a new face in magic on the level of Blaine and Angel. When it does happen, it will most likely be someone unexpected doing something equally as unexpected.

    Working as a Magician on a Cruise Ship!

    Looking forward to it, Emir. :) The question I'd like to throw in is how often did it feel like a job and how often did it feel like you were getting paid to just play on a cruise ship? Also, how much did your set change from the first night you performed on the ship to the last? What were...

    Why are magicians reluctant to use two decks?

    I think it has to do with pocket space more or less. I think most magicians, when working, are willing to carry more than one deck if they think the effect(s) they're able to do by carrying the extra deck is worth it. I always have one deck on me wherever I go--whether it's a gig or just out...

    Ring Flight Revolution

    No clothing requirements. The only time I perform it with a jacket is at a gig. I actually prefer to not be wearing a jacket. It's unnecessary. Also, you can do this surrounded. In fact, I usually do. Just work with your angles and use some misdirection. It isn't hard to figure out. I've been...

    What magic items do you carry

    Me too. It's so good. I love my RFR. My keyring has Ring Flight Revolution on it, and my daily wallet is the Super Slim Hip Pocket Mullica Wallet, and inside are some gimmicked bills for a Dan Harlan effect, business cards, and some Loops. So just grabbing my regular keys and wallet I have a...

    Is "Pressure" really worth $20?

    "Infringe" alone is primarily defined as the breaking of a law. And "infringing on intellectual property" is purely legal-speak. Anyhow, we're on the same page with our advice on the ethics of the issue. :)

    Spectators with mixed feelings?

    I know if I was in that situation as the person who wanted to see something, and someone I was with had said they didn't, I'd still expect to see something. Somebody else's decision is not mine. Vice versa--if I was in the situation of not wanting to see something and the person I was with did...

    Is "Pressure" really worth $20?

    You're over-exaggerating the legal implications. A lot. However, the right thing to do if you want to perform the effect is to buy it.

    Card Culling

    If you really want to learn the cull well, Kostya Kimlat's Roadrunner Cull DVD is the best source. His follow-up DVD, Volume 2, is on-par with the first one as well. He's got a package combo on his website for $70. Worth every penny. One of the best moves in card magic and way more versatile...
